Snackbar is chillin'....at Shaffer

You're not kidding. I already have a check engine light..(a google search says it's a known SCR issue that is fixed with a software update), and now one of the dash 12v plugs went out, and the cb power is dead(checked fuses for both, and both are good). I have power at the fuse box on both sides (it has a choice of batt or ign), but no power at the cb plug at all or outlet. Plus 2 sleeper plugs were out with a blown fuse.

 

All divisions(dry, reefer and flat) get a $.05 bump after Oct 9.

 

Well, I found several Youtube videos that say the CB wiring and that top 12v outlet are on the same circuit, and that's the only thing that is out and my 3 way splitter/USB phone charging port may be part of the problem. It was working, now it isn't on any plug (with only my GPS and phone connected, and it's fuse is good). I'll hit the Love's up by the interstate and get a new one and see.

 

Found out my electrical problem...it was the loose nut between the steering wheel and the seat. Yes, it was me. I have hooked up cb's dozens, if not hundreds of times...and not once have I crossed the wires. But, I guess in my haste to get things done, I saw the red stripe that occasionally remains when you split the cb plug wires...and I connected those to the red wires of the 12v adapter...and wired it into the power of the truck.....and like a stupie, wired the other into the other wire...and pfffft, toasted my radio and blew the 25amp fuse. But the fuse didn't show blown...it just tested bad with my ohms test meter. And it also blew out the plug for my GPS, but I have a spare wire for that. Anybody need any wiring done?
