Could either have a ground problem, on the battery, Also could have a corroided battery terminal connections. Also Youre trucks on board ECU could be failing, I would also make sure youre battery is in exc working condition. U need a strong battery to run all youre truck sensors and emissions sensors as well.

Good Luck.
