Help No Power!
I am having a wiring issue with one of my trucks. Started the truck last night to move it to plow the driveway, it started fine. Went to back it out, got about two feet and the truck just quit. I have absolutely no power to anything; it is like you unhooked both batteries. It has new batteries as of about a month ago along with a new alternator. It is defiantly a bad wire some were or a ground. I have checked all the fuses and they are fine. When I was messing around with the fuse panel and the harnesses under the dash and on the firewall I got the power to come back on by moving something. As soon as I turned the key on to try to start it the power went back out. It did this several times so that is how I know it is a wire or a ground, I just don’t know were to start looking. Does anyone have any ideas? Is there a main power feed to the fuse panel? This is an 02 f250 cc w/ a 7.3, it does have a TS 6 position chip, however I don’t think this has anything to do with it because I got the power to come back on when I had the computer unhooked. Any help would be great. Thanks

It's possible your fuel bowl heater went out, and took out the fuse. When this happens your truck is dead in the water. I'm trying to remember off the top of my head at 6:30 in the morning, but check fuse #30. If it's blown, replace it and also unplug the fuel bowl heater, it's the electrical connection on the back of the fuel bowl.
