This,I would say, is the NUMBER ONE REASON I drive nothing but manual rigs. I spend a lot of time MANY km's from civilization and have bumped my rig many times to get it going.

Just finished futzing with it for the first time since I posted (I have a company truck), I think I have a fusible link issue as I only get ~5.5V at the connector for the starter relay so I need to order one and have the OEM starter relay bypassed with a Bosch style relay taking power directly from the battery for now.

so what did you actually end up replacing, and could you have bush jury rigged this to get you home ,reason being is this some type of a trail spare i should be carrying too.

nah it was kind of a freak incident. If you're worried check the small cover plate on your starter, mine fell off and all the insides fell out of the compartment. On mine its buried down on the bottom of the motor above the frame rail, with a wiring harness on top, between the starter and the engine block. Not easy to see in the pissing rain we've had for the pass 6 months.
I'm working way too much to get too technical, I just bought a rebuilt starter.

Oh really?! One of things I've been doing up here is decommissioning the old ocelot plant, renamed to methanex awhile ago. A chinese company bought the plant and they are packing it into shipping containers and reassembling it in china somewhere.
I've been up to the nass a few times this summer to the lava fields, very cool place to cruise around.

Hey, how did you make out with this issue?
I have something very similar going on on mine right now.
I was driving down the highway when all of the sudden the tach, oil press guauge, power gauge, a/c blower and everything that comes along with controlling heat and cold and my windows stopped working I figure: "this is clearly a fuze" and I kept driving. I got to Seattle a few hours later. Stopped the truck for about 45 mins and when it was time to start it, she's not crank. I can't tell if I have power as whatever happened in the highway stopped the gauge from working. I hear the relays clicking when I try to start it but nothing happens. I got the started done almost 2 years ago and I haven't had a prob with it at all. Tank is full. Fuzes all look good.
Any ideas? I'm stuck in Seattle til I can get it going again. I hope it's something simple.

Fusible link perhaps? Seems strange that everything would go at once.
Yeah. No doubt. Most things went, yet driving lights, radio and wipers were still going.
I didn't bring a volt meter. I had to drop it off to a shop this morning. I guess we have to pay for the service once In a while. Not a fan, but oh well. Let's hope it's something simple.

your 1HD-T only need one 12V to the pump to work .. and then you can crank the starter directly in the starter with a jumper cable .. that would allow you to reach home at least ..
Well, seems like they've finally found the problem.
Apparsntly the a/c clutch went and it kept sending current the opposite direction making the fuze to constantly blow. They're hoping to just take the belt out of the a/c belt loop. That should give me everything back, except for a/c ofcourse.
Thanks for all your replies, tips and recommendations.

Hey guys guess I'm here to revive this thread as I'm at a loss what could have gone bad. The truck started fine this morning getting to the store then at the store it acted like the battery was dead, had someone jump me and it started. I got home shut it off and tried to restart and it had the same problem the starter acting like it had a dead battery. So I hooked a battery to jump it again and it's not cranking just acting like a dead battery

Describe what you mean by dead battery?
Total silence?
Click and nothing?
Click and tries to crank?
Rapid, repeated click click click?
Something else?
Have you tested the battery voltage?
Read the voltage while it's under load such as turning to start, or turn hi beam lights on.
What voltage do you have?
The "dead battery" is when you turn key to crank motor, the starter goes click click click the voltage is at 13.6v. and barely drops voltage. I use super capacitors for my start battery so no issues with not enough amps. I even connected another battery to this capacitor and same clicky starter problem. I started up my ol 75' power wagon that has a 360 amp alternator and still clicky starter on the cruiser.
When I tested the voltage across the converter solenoid the highest voltage it put out that my meter caught was 20.5v. my super capacitors have been all the way down to 10.6v and the cruiser would still start.
So I am starting to think my starter is locked up...
sounds like connections, starter relay or starter solenoid. tap on the starter while cranking and see if it starts. if it was locked up it would draw alot of amps and get super hot.
I have tried to hit the starter while cranking to no avail of starting. maybe it needs a harder hit but I have not been able to get it to start while hitting it
