Yep, get a full load of juice on the batts and see if they hold. See what the ALT is putting out.
From your comment, "o ya sorry", I'm guessing you are in WI or MI, have you plugged the truck in this season?

no i live in Texas i said"o ya sorry" because i didn't say it was a diesel
and well i cleaned off the battery a little corroded and it seems to work alot better
yall think i should check anything else cause all i did was clean it off a bit and check if the battery's were still good
