Crank No Start Issue - SOLVED!

I know, no start issues seem like they are 1 out of 5 threads these days, but I hope this thread helps someone who was scratching their heads like I was over my cranks/no start issue. Put me on the list of just needing new batteries. This was hard for me to believe because the truck turned over in such a robust manner. There was no indication that a battery (or batteries) were bad. I finally bought the new batteries after searching old threads and then Bitter Root suggesting to someone recently to check their batteries. Mine were over 4 years old. After installing the new batteries, it lit up immediately. Thanks again for the great info on this forum.

Keep an eye on your alternator voltage. They take a beating when batteries fail. Thanks for sharing.

These little guys are worth every penny to monitor your voltage drop while starting or just to monitor your alternator output with a quick glance at your 12v outlet in your truck. And you get a usb charging outlet 👍
