I'll check that harness on my setup. It is very possible that this is the problem. Thanks for the picture. What are the but connectors used for in your case?

Well, after an inspection of this part the red wire was a little loose but not out of the connector at all. I've got to go all the way down the column and check to see if there is anything grounding out but that's not going to be for a while yet.

Thanks again.

how many miles on the truck? You every changed contacts on it? On both my trucks they went out between 170k-175k. one a 5spd one an auto. The 5spd was having issues of not cranking over then it would after 6 key cycles and then finally it wouldn't.

NV5600... still dead in the driveway. It might stop raining for me to take a look this weekend.

Ok, so I had a chance to look at in greater detail.

I am reasonably certain that it is either the key ignition cylinder itself or some other issue with the wire harness that plugs into it.

I started removing the dash and started to look at the number of wires running to various locations. I removed the dash cluster and inspected that. There appears to be nothing wrong with that and yet when I reinstall, sometimes there is a display whilst other times there is not. I need to get all that removed and inspect each part one by one I suspect.

I am considering taking it to a shop but it has to be towed to get there since I can't get it started but if something doesn't happen soon I will be pulling the insurance off it and parting it out I suspect.

Well, after charging the batteries (repeated starts with no go or a problem such as this with faulty power always drains them) I managed a boat load of codes:


1693 - JTEC Module
0380 - Intake Air Heater Relay #1
0215 - Fuel Ijection Pump Control
0382 - Intake Air Heater Relay #2
0577 - Cruise Switch Failure (Open)
1698 - No CCD / J1850 Message from TCM / PCM
0562 - Charging voltage too low.

Now, I'm certain that most of these will go away once the batteries come up but it is interesting to see 0577 as this, if I'm not mistaken would be located in this wire loom and connector under the steering wheel, would it not?

Another day... No truck...

Parting it out? wow - this has to be fixable.
