    truck starts up and runs great but after it gets warmed up and I shut it off it doesn't want to start back up. Cranks real slow like batteries are dead. Batteries are good! Any ideas would be great

    Dying starter. Next time try dumping a bucket of water on the starter, and give it a try. I had an 11 389 with an ISX that did this a few times. I kept telling dispatch the truck was out of service, he kept trying to tell me it was fine, so I got to change a starter out on the side of a dirt road 30miles from nowhere.

    Agree with the dying starter comment. Same thing happened to mine. I got lucky and was able to thump it with a mallet and get it to a shop.
