    F250 Diesel Won't Start
    I currently have a 2003 F250 diesel and when I went out to start it won't even tryn over. The powere windows work, radio, lights, etc. So, when I called AAA the guy came out and tried to give me a jump (both batteries) and said that was not the problem. Although, it did make at least a little bit of a sound when the cables were hooked up. Any ideas?

    Diesels require strong batteries and my bet is that you need to remove and charge/replace the batteries. AutoZone will charge batteries for free.

    I have the same problem with my 01 F250 7.3. I just got 2 brand new batteries and it still will not start. I will get back with you once I find out what is keeping mine from starting.
