No crank no start, draining the water in fuel warning on dashboard?

Hi,

Because this vehicle was made as a cab and chassis and then the ambulance body installed after, I really need you to scan the can-bus. CAN stands for controller area network.

Basically, the different modules are tied together via a few wires. If there are codes stored, this type of scan will identify them. This really needs to be done because things are modified by body companies.

I can tell you that the secondary fuel filter is located on the engine. See pic below. Additionally, there is a primary filter along the frame rail on the driver's side. The primary filter functions as a filter and separator. If there is a drain, it should be at the bottom of this filter.

Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions. Also, if you could add pics of what you are dealing with, it may be helpful for me.

Take care and have a great New Year.

Joe

See pic below.

Thanks a lot Joe for the information since i am not aware of the can-bus and i searched the net was difficult for me to understand. i will try to find somebody for help i only have the Ancel ad-310 OBD but I couldn't find reasonable OBD price that show the ICP volt and IPR rate will crank unless you suggest one.
Thanks again for your help and I wish you a happy new year.
Thanks a lot.

Hi,

You are very welcome. As far as the issue, that is where I would start, but I realize you don't have the scan tool.

I will be here if there is something I can do to help. If you have it scanned, write down the codes and let me know what they are. Hopefully, I will be more equipped to help with that information.

Take care and let me know.

Hi again Joe,

Now I crank want start i checked the secondary fuel filter there is no fuel come to it I am wondering what i did wrong when i but the key in on position i hear the fuel pump sounds as usual, I thought may be sensor if it has one or air am not sure from where i should start.
Thanks a lot Joe.

Is there fuel pressure at the primary filter that you drained? I ask because you hear the fuel pump, but it may not be working or producing pressure.

Let me know.

Joe

Hi Joe,

Luckily i shook the fuel pump wire i crank start right away i don't know why but I'm glad it started.
Thanks, a lot Joe for your time and concern.
Good luck i really appreciated.

Hi,

Thanks for the update. It sounds like you have a poor connection or a break in a wire.

Regardless, I'm glad you now have a plan. Feel free to let me know if there is anything I can help with.

Take care,

Joe
