2020 Ranger
Been lurking on here for a bit and thought I'd share this. We have had our Ranger for about 1300 miles when we went out one afternoon and it would not start. Pushed the start button, dash and accessories powered on, no crank no start. Shut it off and got out, tried the remote start with the remote, got one horn honk, no crank no start. Tried the cell phone app remote start, same thing one horn honk. We had it towed to our dealer who after some digging ordered a new PCM. They installed the new PCM (new part #) and "calibrated it" and all is good now. Hope this helps others.

Thanks for posting. Solutions are always good to know. Hopefully this is a case of "infant mortality" in the electronic module. Often times electronics fail early in their lives or they last a long time. ?
