Truck won't start
Need some help figuring this one out. My truck will not fire up. Starter spins strong, but there is no sign that engine is gonna fire up.
Had the same issue before, and noticed that the theft light was flashing when the key was turned to on. I would turn the ign to off, back to on, and if the theft light stayed on it would start everytime. Traced that to a short in the aftermarket alarm.
This time, when I turn the key to on only the anti-lock and 4x4 lights illuminate. All the other lights that are supposed to light up are not. I've been searching here, because it seems like only having those 2 gage lights illuminate is telling me what's wrong.
Anyone run into this?
