Ford RangerMore than two decades ago, the Ford Ranger debuted as an answer to various compact pickup trucks being made available by Japanese automakers. The Ranger was cleanly styled and offered with a choice of a 6-foot or 7-foot bed. Ford boasted that the Ranger had more interior room than the best-selling imports and that 4-by-8-foot construction material could be carried in the bed.
I have a 2003 Ford Ranger 3.0L V6 2WD. When attempting to start the truck it only gives a clicking noise. I have checked the battery and it is good. I just replaced the starter and the problem remains the same. All of the wiring appears to be in place as far as i can tell. I am not sure what to check next. Any help would be appreciated.
check the alternator and then if the problem doesnt get any better check the main ground for the entire engine. we had an 89 f150 and i would do the same thing all it was was the ground
Clean your battery cable connections. A poor connection will cause this. Get a battery cable cleaning brush from any parts store for about a buck or two. It has both a female and male brush on it for cleaning the connector and the post. This should take care of your problem.
