runaway parents Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 So when I found the batteries dead on our truck this is what I did to get it started .Put jumper cables from my f250 to the truck and got it started ran a little while brought it back to the house and put it on a automatic batteries charger and walked away from it for a couple of days .Took it for a drive that following Saturday put on about a hundred miles. brought it back parked it .Went out today and tried to turn on dome light nothing cb nothing tv nothing . But the batteries where charged. Evidently the truck went into self preservation mode and shut down unnecessary systems .So to reset the computer I had to disconnect the batteries once I did this every thing came back to life. Thanks to RandyRetired he gave me an idea. Just disconnect the batteries and reboot . THANK YOU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
