WHEN YOU TURN THE KEY AND THE FUEL CAP LIGHT IS NOT SHOWN IN THE INITIAL START THE CAR WILL NOT START, THERE IS NO NOISE ITS LIKE IF THE BATTER IS DEAD, BUT THE DASH LIGHTS AND RADIO PLAYS AND WHEN YOU LEAVE THE KEY IN THE ON POSITION AFTER A SHORT WHILE 45 SECONDS THE FUEL CAP LIGHT POPS UP FOR ABOUT 2 SECONDS AND THE CAR WILL START. BUT IF THE INITIAL START WITH THE FUEL CAP LIGHT IS DISPLAYED THE CAR WILL START. DOES THIS MEAN I NEED A NEW FUEL CAP?
The fuel cap has nothing to do with the starting issue, but the fuel pump may.

HI, I'm reading your problem,
Let me explain something about your car.
2005 Ford Taurus, The key on that car has Chip inside of the key and receiver on the ignition switch,
Check if the key you are trying to use is Black and has a plastic head.
If not you need a key with that characteristics.
But if you have the right key, Remenber if you had drop on the floor, or hit with something,
Because some times they come damaged, with insignificat thins.
Remenber if you left the key close to a magnets like speakers.
If nothing aply at your case, you need to call a place Aloha Smith, they have the computer to program or reprogarm your key. IF not you can't start your car.
OK.. I hope this information work for you.
Thank's for submit yous question on fixya.com

Sounds like an electrical mess up. Im not too familiar with ford and newer vehicles. It could be the starter getting jambed. The make a grinding/clicking noise..Something like a selenoid? Just ideas..

does the battery have a full charge to it? If so clean battery terminals and chck battery cable at starter make sure its getting good contact. Make sure battery ground is making good contact at engine. Can you jump the car off? If so take off positive battery terminal while the car is running if the car dies altenaters bad replace it.
Testimonial: "will submit my testimony after i try the advice, but i asked for help in getting my hood opened also, which i guess they forgot to answer. "

if you hear clicking at the starter solenoid,then hit the starter with a hammer a few times,if it turns over a little,then either replace the brushes in the starter which is about $20.00 or buy a new rebuilt starter for about $90.00
