Hello, my truck will not crank and start, I tested and charged the battery, tested the starter, checked the fuses both inside the cab and under the hood. I also checked if the motor was frozen (it was not). Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Will it crank over in neutral? If so, the gear range sensor is bad, I would swap out the starter relay as well. Here is a guide to help us figure out the problem and I have included the starter wiring diagrams so you can see how the system works and to test to see where it loses power.

Hi Ken, no it won’t crank in neutral, and I tested the starter relay, and it was good. Thank you for the diagrams. :)

So, is it fixed? If not, check for power at fuse #102 and #101 when the key is in the crank position, this will help us test the ignition switch.
