Archived truck wont turn over

[cowboybarber]

Ok here it is. I just got back from a 70 mile trip. Pulled it in the driveway and shut it down like normal,no problems. Go back out 1 hour later and nothing, all the gauges come on fuel pump kicks on but turn the key and nothinghappens not even a starter click or anything. Anybody have any suggestions about what might be wrong? Checked all the fuses and both batteries are good. Just no action when I turn the key.

ONE possibility would be starter contacts. Mine did the same thing and changing them solved it.

Thanks I will check that out tomorrow. just seems kinda wierd that it quit all at once. but then again Im no mechanic just a parts changer.

I would check the clutch pedal switch first. It would prevent the starter from engaging. You can run a jumper wire to bypass it.



Good Luck,

I fixed it this morning. I thought I had checked all the fuses but I missed the starter solenoid fuse under the hood. Yesterday I only checked the big ones. It was shot replaced it and she fired right up but thanks for the suggestions.
