<p>[QUOTE="mgrantes, post: 4784108, member: 114070"]Unsure if yours operates the same way, but recently while diagnosing and changing out my starter I noticed that once I disconnected all my battery cables (well, anything leading to truck electrical) and connected them again, my all my interior lights wouldn't function until I started the vehicle. Once started, everything else would come alive and behave normally. Also, have you tested and ruled out the starter? You said that it cranks, but how strong is the cranking? If it's good, then it could be a fuel check valve or leak in the line. I've read a few threads that points to the check valve being the culprit. I'm also assuming that you see both yellow and red check engine lights when you turn the key to acc position? If so, then your ecm should be fine.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
