2000 ford ranger dies going to take off what cause all electrics out wait 2 mins back on

How much drain? All vehicles have some drain for the 'keep alive' function. If you are sure that all fuses (cabin And underhood) are ok. One common problem to look at is the plug connection on the firewall. Unplug it and check for water/corrosion on the male and female connectors in the plug. If all ok, time for more comprehensive diag. Instrument displays are controlled through a module. Power windows are completely separate circuit. v This time of year, I would be checking all harnesses for critter damage. Hope this points you in a direction. Have to start with the basics.

Unfortunately there are many things that could be causing this. I would check the engine coolant temp. sensor ..and see what its reading with the engine hot. Your going to need a scan tool to get that reading...or just change the sensor...good luck

flex fuel sensor possibly bad..

Please see my tip at http://www.fixya.com/cars/r5821173-doesnt_car_start_gasoline_engines . These are generic instructions. If you get stuck or need specific instructions for your car, please get back to me with model, year and engine info.

wooo hoooo i hate these trucks everything that could go wrong with them does just wait till the fuel shut off switch goes out real fun. but now since im done with my rant im going to say check the fuses and relays.

replace th air idle bypass valve this is located on the throtle body and has 2 screws with 1 plug with 2 wires to it

fuel filter usually dont cause it to die and not start back, thay usually cause rough running. see if your fuel pump is running by getting in and roll up all windows so as quite as possible then cycle the key from off to run and lisen for the pump to run for 2 to 3 seconds should be a faint buzz sound if no sound is heard then replace the fuel pump relay, if no help probably going to need fuel pump
