Check the battery cables to make sure they are clean at both ends for starters.

I recommend cleaning your terminals with one of these...

Thank you for the help...

Battery was new however the cables connected to the positive were corroded....therefore the truck was running weird at times....all relays we're ticking but when the battery cables were cleaned everything worked...
