Every thing went dead!
Hello, first time here. I have a 04 heritage f-150, V6 I bought a month ago. Truck ran fine till tonight. Got in to start it, the engine started to crank and everything went dead except for a bussing click some what like a turn signal. When I raised the hood the light weakly flashed in time with the buss. I checked the cables, clean and tight. The click came from the #2 ( I think) relay. I wiggled it and it stopped and the lights came back on but when I turned the lights on it all started again. The book says the #2 relay is for the PCM.
Please don't tell me the computer is out! Any help would be great. Thank you.

The fix
The battery was the one that came with the truck. It had a dead cell, low voltage was the problem causing all the weird stuff. Future reference, try to jump the starting celonoid, (wrong spelling I know), if the engine will not crank, test the battery.
