    I second that question.. all the new trucks that ive been around the last couple years all have that main disconnect switch just inside the drivers door.. is it possible you got the seat belt caught on it or maybe reached for your gloves if you put them there like I do and bumped it.. some are a breaker type and others are a turn switch type

    Update. It was the ground cable going to the frame, it was broken off. I couldn't reach it because of the way the truck was sitting in the dock with the tanks almost hitting the ground where the dock starts going down. The mechanic had to rig it up to drive back to their shop to fix. thanks for the replies.
