I am going to be driving a bit this week and will see if my problem is resolved or not. I am going to also look through all the documents you gave me to see what my next step should be. I'll look into replacing R6 relay. Already spent a good portion of money on this truck. Mostly things that happen after 500k miles.
This is very helpful. Thank you very much!

Typing from my phone.
I have been driving 5 days now and the issue is resolved. My issue was that a wire broke from the starter and was messing with the volts. I feel dumb that I didn't think about why my volts where sitting in the red on the dash. Learned my lesson. Happy that it didn't cause more damage to the electronics.
I haven't researched what wire that was. My theory is that it was shorting the system or over volting and causing it to cut out.
Thanks for the documents you provided me. I'll keep them handy for other issues. In the meantime I'll post another issue I am having. When I get back home. -
On one, an alternator wire was loose and grounding out causing the AC to mysteriously stop.
On the second, the master cut off switch was going bad: 14$ switch. Of course I put in a new starter, alternator, ac controller while chasing that one!Just Driving By Thanks this. -
If your battery guage is in the red or maxing out then you could be having an issue like mine. -
Mine was the wire being torn off. But my AC worked when the system would work. I may be confusing alternator with starter. My wire that was torn off was on what I believe was the seloniod. Drivers side between frame and engine. -
Also getting code CHS 71. I guess I have some research to do
I did just get my Sam cab replaced about a month ago. Maybe they ####ed something else up or maybe now that that's working properly, other #### is starting to go smh -
More and more bs keeps popping up. Now when I go to turn the key to ACC before I start it, on my 2012 freightliner with the D N R L shows on the center dashboard, it shows as 88 instead of N (neutral) for a few seconds. This thing is a money pit
