2005 ranger 4.0 V6 inertia switch problem?
Bought my 05 ranger back in oct 2012.
Had a few problems with the fuel. Pump went out, relay, fuel filter.
Got it all replaced. And now it seems that the inertia switch is popping. Every time it starts up and drives for about ten minutes. An then just stalls out. Happened 5 times today. Twice on the freeway in dense traffic. (NOT F*CKING SAFE) and I have to depress the switch just to start it again. But idk if its popping or just fried. It doesn't click or anything just pushes in and comes back up. It also melted part of the carpet where the wires touched from the switch. This truck is the only vehicle me and my wife have. I'm a work and she has to go to work also. Idk what to do! Urgent help!!
Stressing bad.
 
You have a junk inertia switch. Get a new one. If needed, you can remove the switch and put a jumper wire in its place TEMPORARILY. If the switch is melting carpet, it is a major fire hazard.

NVM, missed the double post. Carry on.
