Speed bumps shut off truck

Went to turn on my truck this morning several relays were clicking (IDM) and lights turning on on the dash If I apply pressure on the fuse box the problem goes away. If I hit a speed bump hard the truck turns off than I’m able to turn it back on right away. (Feels like that could change how lucky can I be lol) Seems something is loose back there. I know this post seems like a great mystery hoping someone has seen this before and can provide some insight. Will be posting a YouTube video later. When the truck is on all seems fine also no engine codes present.
Thank You

I had kinda the same issue. Truck running hit a speed bump …off. I caught the WTS light wasn’t coming on, Turned out fuse 30 under dash was very loose. I’d start by checking every single fuse for integrity-test light, then for tightness-can you wiggle or remove it with your fingers? Start with easy stuff first...

Of course after going over a ton of speed bumps from right after posting and today the issue has disappeared. I’ll start there and see what comes up in addition to checking out the fuse #30 today.
