Yeah it's not even trying to turn over when you turn the key.when I bought it I only got one key with it.

Start simple; clean the terminals thoroughly, and get the battery tested. Sometimes a completely dead battery can't be jumped no matter what.

Are you sure the truck is fully in Park? I had something similar with my wife's expy... interior lights would come on but otherwise dead... couldn't jump it, etc... finally noticed it wasn't fully in Park...

Yes sir, I checked it to make sure it was in park and even tried it in neutral and still dead as a nail.if the battery was dead all the inside and cluster lights wouldn't come on would they? All that still works just the engine won't turn over when you try.

Sorry, I don't any other ideas besides making sure all the connections are clean. I have seen vehicles need a battery even though the interior lights would come on.

I was going to suggest the old banging on the starter with a hammer while someone else turns the key but I realized that you would hear the solenoid click (still could try it) Turn the radio and the heater fan off and listen for the fuel pump coming on

I can hear the fuel pump prime up.but usually a bad pump would still allow the engine to turn over I'd think.

Is there a starter relay on these trucks now or did they do away with it in the past?

Red F

I found my problem guys!! has anyone ever changed the starter on their truck?? how many bolts and which ones actually hold the starter on?? thanks for all the help on this.
