I have some 1999 Freightliner (Century Class) electrical problems that got worse. I have no power to the fuse panel. I tried to start the engine (DD 60 series). It cranked a few times, but did not start; after that I lost all power to dash and to ignition key switch. I went to the battery box and checked the wires, connectors and fuses there. Everything seemed ok. Voltage was fine too ( 12.4V). I opened the cover to the fuse panel and noticed there is no power coming to the fuses. The voltage on the four wire lug posts reads 5.4V on the BATT lug, 0V on the ISO and the IGN lugs, 5.1V on the ACC lug. If I bring a 12 V wire and connect it to the BATT lug, would I be able to start the engine and drive the truck to a Freightliner repair shop ? I don't know how to rebuild the wiring under the fuse panel.

Check and be sure you dont have a broken battery lug in the battery box grab the cables and check. If not go to starter and look for fried wire or ground
