Electrical problems...
Sup guys, I've got a 05 f350 that just started losing its mind on the way to work today.
The batteries were replaced last October. But the battery light has been coming on ( bright then dim) off and on for about 2 weeks. It had a hard time starting but fired, About halfway to work the radio cut off and the abs light came on A few miles later the radio came on and abs light went back off After that a combination of on/off between the abs light, guage lights, odometer, and all guages happened. All while the engine ran completely normal. I got to work and parked, turned the truck off and now it just clicks when I try to start it. I'm guessing alternator. My only guess If you guys have any other guesses or back up my imperfect theory please let me know. Thanks Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Tapatalk 2 |
What's the battery voltage key off engine off and at idle?

11.56. V key off. I'm waiting for our jump box to charge so I can start it. It just clicks when I try to start it.
I load tested the battery and the batteries are weak, still good though Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Tapatalk 2 |
