When crossing multiple railroad tracks, ignition shut off and would not restart. Managed to coast past tracks before coming to a stop on side of road. Tow truck driver (larry's towing 281-342-981, rosenberg tx) said this was the second Ford truck(model year 2000, that he had towed with same problem, just stopped running. This problem which could easily had led to fatal accident when stopped on rail line is apparently well knwn to tow truck drivers, thus must also be known to Ford, but they have no recall etc.2

Key ignition wire was never fastened properly at the factory, causing it to fall off while driving over a railroad track, resulting in total loss of power. Dealer did many tests before he could determine defect. Dealers conclusion was to replace wire at connection (1027)grey wire.
