    Yes on my 2010 Freightliner Cascadia with the dash mounted type. I was connecting wires to the posts , it caused Qualcomm to short out - won't power back on . I checked fuses , all looks good. Can I try to unplug it all for a couple hours . Also what if it's the relay in the fuse panel, do those go bad or blow? I don't have my fluke meter with Me it is at home. Im on the road . Thanks please help

    What did you do to get it working? I am sure someone else will have it happen.

    Maybe a blown fuse in the panel behind the glove box?

    The Qualcomm power wires should be nowhere near the cb power studs.
