I have a situation where I can't figure out why the Power Dist box is grounded out. If you remove all the fuses, relays and disconnect the black wire from the Solenoid and measure it, it is shorted to ground. So if you hook it back up properly to the starter relay, it a complete short.
When the truck died, I lost all electrical to everything.
I replaced the starter, starter relay and solinoid in attempt to get it going.
When you short the starter relay, the truck runs for about 2 seconds and dies. When it does this, the dash lights up only when cranking.
Any ideas as I have been working on this for several hours and days.
Fuses, diode and relays all test out fine. The fusable link to the starter tests out fine as well. I think if I could keep power to the dist. box, the truck would start and keep running.
Thanks
