FYI: if any time you notice the voltage gauge shows > 14.2 volts that indicates the 5A fuse of the PNDB is busted. This fuse is to keep the voltage from the alternator to PNDB at 14.2 or less. There is a relay in the PNDB that cannot handle more than 14.2v. If the 5A fuse is busted the relay will eventually wear out and it will cause loss of power while driving and you’ll have to replace the whole PNDB which costs about $405+tax. But it’s so to prevent this by replacing the 5A fuse any time you see truck’s voltage more than 14.2. There are 2 latches holding the door, snap those off, take out the door and you’ll see 4 fuses, the brown top one is the 5A fuse and if it’s busted, replace it and you’ll see the voltage drops back to 14.0 or 14.1v.
