Engine shut off

Last night my wife was turning into a driveway and the engine shut down. The lights and radio all stayed on. She was able to cycle the ignition and the truck started. She drove it home with no problems, and after she parked, I went out and started the truck. I checked the battery cables and both appear tight.

I figure a loose ground wire to the engine, or a faulty fuel shut off switch.

Anyone else with the same issue?

Do you have a tool to check for codes?

Impossible. I have the headliner covered with tin foil

Yes. Just a Scanguage. But I'm not sure it would read some of the current systems. It was last updated about 2010.

I'll give it a shot tomorrow. If not, I'll take it to the dealer next week.

Thanks.

Nope. No codes. I'll wait to see if it happens again, then take it to the dealer.
