So my AT tire rubbed a couple of wires just out of my PCM when I made a sharp right turn. Two dark blue with white stripe and one orange wire. The truck stalled out and I repaired the wires and now when I turn the key to on, everything works, when I try to start the display goes black and I do not get any power to the starter.

So far I have checked all fuses. All of the relays will engage when I jump them off the battery, and I jumped my starter off the terminal to the battery and I get power to the starter but it will not crank/run.

I am out of ideas. What do I need to do?

Good evening,

Can you post a picture of the wires that were rubbed?

Did you check the battery voltage to be sure it is good.

I will attach a wiring diagram for you to view. You will need to verify power from the ignition switch to the fuse to the relay and the PCM.

I cannot get a picture at the moment but both come out of the bottom of the PCM and were a dark blue with white line, there was a yellow/orange wire that was slightly exposed and I reattached then taped and retaped the group. The only one getting power with the car on was one of the blue/white wires and it had a strong reading.
