06 Ram 2500 will not start

[R-Carter]

Ok,

I need some advice here. I have searched this problem and only find one person experiencing the same thing.



I parked my truck this weekend, and went to crank it this morning and NOTHING. Lights all work, battery is charged, can't jump it off.



I read that someone said something about the small wire that goes into the start, so I wiggle it and the truck starts.



Has anyone else experienced this problem?



The truck is under warranty and I will be at the dealership in the morning, just seeing if anyone has had any experience like this?

There were some older threads about a Blue or Yellow wire at the starter causing this problem. I think it might've rubbed the insulation off or was a loose connection. Don't remember which one.

I think it rubbed through the wire, if i remember correctly!

The starter solenoid wire is in a single connector under the hood above the brake Hydroboost. Not sure why they put the connector there, but if you disconnect it and jump 12v to the engine side the starter should engage. Be sure the truck is in park or neutral if manual.

Connector is gray and has a yellow with gray tracer wire.
