This just started yesterday, get ready to read.
I have not driven the truck for a couple days and go to start and completely dead, no dash lights, no clicking, nada. I thought it was strange as I havent had any problems with battery since i have had it. No biggie, jump start it and its fine.
When i get to where im going, i park it in the driveway and leave the doors open to unload. No dome lights on, all switched off as i normally do when loading/unloading. When i come back to lock it the power seems to be completely drained again. At this point, the party is getting going so i just lock the doors manually and go inside.
I come back to it this morning and were all ready to jump start it and immediately when the jumpers are connected the alarm goes off. We took off the jumpers and the truck started. This means the truck now has complete power. Idle was hard to acheive as the computer is relearning, correct? Only thing is every other time the ecu has been reset the idle stumbled around but never died. This time it took 4 or 5 times and i finally had to apply throttle to keep it running.
Get driving down the road and then all power goes out. Turn key over and over and nothing. Get to the battery and knock the connections around a bit, make sure terminals are tight. The terminals are tight and clean. All of a sudden VIOLA! Now i have power again.
My buddy meet up with me and knows a good deal about cruisers and hes thinking the ecu is just relearning and dying in the process but cant figure why the loss of electrical power. We checked all the ecu fuses, relays and battery connections. Also battery as 12 volts without engine running. I was thinking maybe a dround connection is going bad?? I dont know, what should i look at.
