91 f150 died
My brother had his 91 F150 out today and called me to tell me it wouldnt turn over. I went to see if we could jump it and it wouldnt even click. The lights dont work even when the jumper cables were on it. I tried jumping the solenoid and got nothing as well. Im thinking dead battery but the fact the we cant get anything electrical to work even when the jumpers are hooked up makes me think it might be a big short somewhere. What does this sound like to you? Were going to get the battery tested tomorrow and we will go from there. Thanks for the help. Oh and by the way its an I6

If there is one thing that I have learned while troubleshooting electrical issues it is KISS, Keep It Simple Stupid. You're right, start by checking out grounds, loose or open wires, fuses or relays. Then, after that, test your solenoid and ignition switch. I hope I helped, electrics can be a fickle bitch.
