I have never worked on automobile before, I have several posts and threads on this forum concerning an 03 Lincoln Navigator, if you would like history about whats going on.
My question is this, I am having an almost never starts do you think I should have the PCM memory erased, somehow it seems all of the components are there for starting condition spark,fuel,air,mechanical integrity…is it possible that allowing the PCM to recognize only the conditions that are present now might be the issue?

Erasing the memory won’t do much… Based upon your previous posts I would scan for all codes (active and pending )… sometimes intermittent problems give a clue by storing a pending or historical code.

With no start conditions there are basic things to check. Once you’ve done that you can move on to other possibilities. I cover those steps here.

Just resetting the computer won’t likely cure anything. Every problem has a cause. Sometimes it just takes more time to find that cause. If it was easy, everyone would do it.
