[QUOTE="Barry E, post: 741355, member: 65859"] re: original post of 9-30-07 Well folks....it's happened again. Got stuck in the parking lot of Home Depot three weeks ago. Tried the usual things...no luck. So I left the truck in the lot for 2 hours and when I went back...it started right up. Ran great until today when it did it again...refused to start. It's been sitting all day (six hours) so I just went and tried to start it...nada. This time, my wife could not hear the fuel pump. If a fuel pump goes out....can it be a intermittent type thing where it will work, not work, work, not work, etc? I might add, that I tried different keys, the fuel reset button, and everything else everyone suggested above. But did not check for fuel pressure which probably isn't necessary since I don't hear the fuel pump activating. Could the fuses/relays under the hood for the fuel pump and reset possible be the culprit? They check out ok as far as continuity. If it is the PATS module as has been suggested, how do you have it checked out? Has there been a recall on them? Thanks for any suggestions...... UPDATE: just went out to the truck after it sat overnight.....the fuel pump worked and it started right up. :P [/QUOTE]
