Powerstroke Engine shuts off when running on wet roads. Unhook the battery cable and wait 20 minutes and all is OK again?

Cat. converter is stopped up. It shuts down to protect the engine. If engine light is on, auto zone will scan for free. You only need to get the codes and I can help

I have exactly the same problem started last winter, ran fine all summer then as soon as it got below freezing again if I start it and run for 15 20 minutes wont restart I have to let it sit for 20 minutes or so and then it will start again. no codes and just turns over without starting. cant be fuel pump like i said had this problem last winter then ran fine all spring summer and fall! Anybody got the answer for this one??

check the charging system. when car is off voltage at battery should be about 12.6 volts. when running, if alternator and the belts are ok should read 14.2 to 14.7 but heres another way to tell if alternator is ok. unhook negative battery cable from battery while car is running,. if car quits, its the alternator or wiring to it. it will run with cable off of battery if alternator is ok.

this is a typical Coolant Temp Sensor issue. the part is about $20 and can be done in a few minutes. I can further help if i knew which engine was in the car.

if it has a 7.3l then try the cranksensor it,s right on front of engine beside harmonic balancer on the passenger side they are notorious for this and aren,t expensive to replace hope this helps

you need to have car scanned for codes and it sounds like it is due for a major service

Be sure its all the way in park or try neutral.Its possible that security system does not recognize the key. Is security light flashing or on steady? Shut all doors and windows,trunk,hood, turn off all accessory's,roll down drivers window, turn key off and remove for at least 1 minute, insert key into ignition, try to start leaving key to run position for 20 minutes, turn key to off,wait 15 seconds, try to start again leaving key to run, wait 20 minutes, turn key off,wait 15 seconds, try to start, again leaving key to run, wait 20 minutes, turn key off, wait 15 seconds, try to start. This should relearn key code. It may relearn after 1 learn cycle and start if system is ok. Hope this helps and that the weather is dry and warm for this procedure! This is not always a fix, but works most of the time.

Trying disconnecting the battery again this time for 10 to 15 minutes. Then reconnect and see if it clears the problem.

it could, to clear the check engine light, you or someone else can unhook the negitive battery termanal, wait about 2 minutes and unhook thev positve cable, wait a couple minutes and rehook positive cable then negitive cable. this should turn off light. if it comes back on, you'll need to have it diagnosed.
