If your 2014 Ford F-150's engine is turning over but won't start, it may be because of a faulty starter, low fuel, worn-out spark plugs, a power issue, or low compression. If there's no spark, the problem might be related to faulty wiring or a malfunctioning crank position sensor. Replacing a spark plug typically costs around $250 to $300, while a crank position sensor replacement can range from $225 to $290. Low fuel levels could be caused by a failing fuel pump, a blocked fuel filter, or simply running out of gas. Insufficient power supply could be a result of a failing battery or low voltage, preventing the engine from starting, often indicated by a clicking noise from the starter.

I've been having a recurring problem with my 2014 F150 5.0 where it sometimes doesn't start. I found that the Number 27 fuse was burned on one side, and replacing it solved the issue. I'm wondering if there has been any recall on these fuse boxes. Thanks!

My 2014 Ford F150 was able to turn over but failed to start. I replaced the fuel pump and confirmed that the fuse was fine, yet it still wouldn't start. After leaving it untouched for a week, I tried again and it started without any issue. However, the problem repeats after a couple of weeks. I need help identifying and fixing this recurring issue.

My 2014 car is experiencing the same issue, but it only occurs after a day. It has been at the dealership for around three weeks, and they are unsure of how to fix it. They are attempting to contact Ford to seek guidance. I purchased the vehicle just two months ago.

The 2014 F150 truck had a problem starting despite replacing the fuse relocator, which temporarily fixed the issue for about two weeks. However, the same problem has resurfaced, and now the truck won't start. The person is thinking about using ether spray in the intake as a possible solution.

Number 27 fuse also blew out one end of it. I replaced it, and the engine started immediately. What's interesting is that my scanner indicated a misfire in cylinder 4. However, after changing the fuse, the check engine light disappeared and the error code vanished too.

Today, my 2014 F150 STX Sport 4X4 5.0 V-8 with 120,000 miles unexpectedly had its first ever issue. I bought this truck brand new and never faced any problems until now. Fortunately, I searched for the issue online while waiting for AAA. It turned out to be a burnt leg on Fuse #27. If you find yourself in a similar situation, it's a 20 Amp mini fuse with a low profile located in the front and center of the black fuse box under the hood. Luckily, there was an advanced auto shop near the gas station where I was stranded. You'll need $5 for a pack of fuses and some needle nose pliers to easily resolve this.

My 2014 F15 XLT can crank, but sometimes it won't start. Slot #27 is missing a fuse. I took it to a nearby mechanic, and they replaced the purge valve, but it didn't fix the problem. I'm unsure of what to do next. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

In 2014, my F150 truck wouldn't start despite cranking, and it kept cranking even after releasing the key. I opened the engine compartment, disconnected the vacuum line near the Throttle Body, then tried starting it again successfully. I later reconnected the vacuum line. There were no error codes, so I drove it to the mechanics. They suggested it might be related to the Anti-Theft system but couldn't reproduce the starting issue.

The 27th fuse checked out fine, but I had to continue my search. Eventually, I stumbled upon a video demonstrating that the fuel control module was located on the driver's side of the rear axle, under the spare tire. After replacing it, the vehicle started successfully, and everything seems to be working well now.

In 2014, my Ford F-150 sometimes struggles to start when I turn the key, but after a second attempt, it starts without issues. A previous problem with the fuel pump sensor was fixed, which seemed to resolve the issue for a while. However, about a year later, the problem resurfaced. I checked the sensor, fuses, starter, and electrical components, but everything appears to be in working order with no error codes being displayed. I'm puzzled as to what could be causing the problem.

Similar issue. Replaced the #27 fuse. Started successfully.

It happened once before, for some unknown reason. I had to toggle the alarm from off to on and back off again, then attempted to start it again. It did start, possibly because the alarm went off while sitting idle. It did go off that day, I remember that. I didn't realize it was my truck. I hope this information is helpful.
