Dead Tracker? Help!
« on: August 23, 2004, 04:23:34 PM »
I had a dead battery from leaving my lights on while I was at work. When my friend got there I hooked up the jumper cables and one of the ends touched something and it blew the 60Amp fuse on the left side of the engine bay thats held in my two bolts. So I was trying to take it out and the socked touched the body and sparks flew.
Now there is absolutly no power flowing through any part of the truck even when I step on the brakes.

Any ideas? I hope I didn't do it over this time. I checked all the fuses everywhere, and the only blown on is still the 60 amp one. There is no spark in the the wires previously bolted to the fuse box eather

I hope its not the ecu or something, is there some kind of reset switch in the truck anywhere?

You might check the small ground wire
that goes to the body, as well as the small
Pos wire that feeds the 60A fuse you blew,
that's about all I can think of, might have
blown one of those like a fusable link, you
can't see when they are blown, but they still
don't work.

If you have an Ohm Meter, disconect the
battery and see if there is continuity between
the big battery terminal and the end of the
small one, if it shows open circuit, replace
the battery cables.

Good Luck
