Lights flickering no crank

Hey I have a 2006 f250 and the other night I replaced a couple fuses and reset the air filter sensor and I started the truck afterwards and it ran perfectly then the next morning i went to go start it and it won’t crank and even trying to cycle it will cause the whole dash to flash and freak out.
I put both the batteries on chargers for a while and even hooked a jump box to it and all it is doing is draining the box.

which engine? Sorry, just noticed its a 6.0.
Might be a hydrolock. Try pulling the glow plugs and then crank it.

hmm ok I’ll give that a try. It seems like it’s more of an electrical issue but it’s always worth checking every possibility.

I agree - seems like you need to make sure that the voltages are all ok first. We can only guess without any numbers.

Codes might help also.
