thanks

I recently had a voltage issue where after parking and then trying to start the truck nothing worked. No lights,no accessories, nothing. I recently changed the battery since it was pretty old to no avail. I was convinced it was a ground problem after ohmming out the wires in the start circuit. It turned out to be a poor connection and weakened wire from the positive battery post to the 80 amp link. I replaced the battery post clamp and the wire with a larger awg. It starts even better than before. Special thanks to donomite49,terrys87,snobdds,wyoming9 and the forums for giving me the idea to check that wire.
