Your issue was right here i think, since that looks like it was the sense wire on the starter. Because that sense wire goes to the starter, it was grounding out and throwing the code before it even started.
D.Tibbitt Thanks this. -
Yes that would make sense.. The wire at fault has a 3amp fuse on it right before it hooks into the starter... power to the wire is supplied off the postive battery cable.. I looked for any writing on the wiring itself but couldn't find anything
-
If in fact that is the sense wire on the newer versions it’s wired directly to the battery. Not jumpered off the starter. So as to not cause this kind of confusion.
If you want pm me your email email I’ll send this pdf off to you. It’s a good starting point. I used it alongside of images from google to fix my issues.D.Tibbitt Thanks this. -
@D.Tibbitt thanks for posting what the problem was.
I have to work on mine tomorrow it started doing the sane thing again. I checked the main grounds but that’s not it this time. I’ll look for this wire tomorrow.D.Tibbitt Thanks this. -
We're you able to get it fixed?
-
I didn’t get home last weekend to tear into it. However, it magically started working again. I’m assuming I have a loose ground somewhere but it’s nowhere that’s easily accessible. Gonna wait till the weekend and go through it.D.Tibbitt Thanks this.
-
Yeah maybe a loose ground or a wire starting to rub thru somewhereGYPSY65 Thanks this.
-
We’ll I’ll definitely have to look it over now. Had a blowout that almost took it out today!!
Got 2 of my fenders and back of cab as well. -
Oh man that sucks out loud.D.Tibbitt Thanks this.
