Starting issue. Help please

[terryturner]

Hey guys. On my 14 the last 2 days it doesn't want to start. Seems electrical and I'd hate to drop it off at dealer for a simple fix. Still under warranty but I hate them lol. Anyway this morning I used my remote start and the lights flashed once and it clicked to start like normal. Then nothing for about a full second. Then started normal. This afternoon I started it with the key and it did the same thing but seemed like a slightly longer pause. I feel like it may have been starting weird for a week or so but it's much more noticeable now. Maybe a short somewhere or loose connection? Anyone have this happen before? Also, last week or 2 after I start and put in drive to coast out of the parking lot it idles really low to where it almost stalls but then it wakes up. Maybe these 2 are connected? That's seem more like an air/fuel problem tho. No serious upgrades. Cat back exhaust and K&N drop in. Thank u all

Just went out and started it 5 times. First time good. 2nd time it's like it tried to start twice real quick. Think older ignitions if u turned the key and your fingers slipped off or something. The pause between that and start this time was extremely short tho. Less than half a second I bet. I got a video of it. Going to try to figure out how to upload. #3-5 started fine. So frustrating...

Sounds like an ignition switch issue. But could be a dirty MAF as well. I would take it in.

Check the fuse for the fuel pump. It's number 27 (i think) under the hood above the radiator.

This is a vid I just posted on youtube. My first time doing it so apologies if it's not done correctly lol.

Video sounds like a starter issue, like it is getting stuck/missing a tooth.

Thank u for your replies. Ya I'm thinking starter issue as well. Just weird cuz only 8,200 miles on truck

Going to take it to the dealer in the AM and hope that I can repeat the problem. At least I got it on video.

sounds like a starter to me either a dead spot on one of the brushes or the solenoid/armature might be sticking

Joe you are correct fuse 27. Check the connections at the fuse and also check the harness on the frame just behind drives side front tire for damage.
