Question
KillItWithFire
Hey fellas, I have an 01 silverado 2500 with 200k on it. She ran flawlessly, until today. I drove it in to work this morning with no issues. It sat for 8 hours in the rain, with absolutely nothing on that would kill a battery (lights etc) I got out off work, opened the door, the interior lights came on like usual, put the key in the ignition, and nothing. Not even a click like a dead battery would cause. I also had zero power to anything (interior lights, horn, etc, like there wasn't even a battery in it) So just for the process of elimination, I decided to jump it with my work van. I got the cables hooked up, but still nothing, I checked the connections on the jumper cables, got a spark and my interior lights came on. Turned the key, it started, but ran very rough at first. It struggled to stay running for a minute. Then I unhooked the jumper cables, parked the work van in the garage, got into my truck, put it in drive and idled down the road. About 15 seconds later, my radio, lights, everything electric, started flashing and turning on and off, then the truck just died completely. Same as before ZERO power to anything, like the battery isn't even in it. So I walked back to the shop in the rain, got the van again, tried to jump it, but this time to no avail. I'm almost certain it's an electrical issue. Also, I'm not sure what it runs, but I blew the 40 amp fuse in my fuse box under the hood. Any suggestions would be great
