★ Top Answer
There might be several reasons why your Ford C-Max isn't starting. If the problem is that the engine isn't turning over, it could be because of issues with the battery cables, a drained battery, or a faulty starter. To troubleshoot, you should first check for any corrosion on the cables and terminals and clean them if necessary. If your battery is dead, it might just need to be charged, but if it's old and needs to be replaced, make sure to get the correct battery size, which is group 67R. The typical cost for a new starter is between $310 and $350, including parts and labor. On the other hand, if the engine does crank but doesn't start, you could be facing problems with the fuel pump, ignition related to spark plugs or coil packs, or misfiring caused by the camshaft and crankshaft being out of sync.
