So I figured out why that fuse for the ignition blew on my Dodge.
Later that night I noticed my remote start wasn't working.....I finally had a few extra minutes last night before I left so I took a look at it. Apparently the ignition wire for the remote start got caught on the parking brake. When we loaded I set the parking brake, thus cutting the wire and giving me a free +12 volts under there. Well we all know that a hot wire is gonna find a ground somewhere........viola......blew the 25 amp ignition fuse.

just as it's in the nature of the chicken to cross the road, it's in the nature of the CCC Diesel students to know EXACTLY how everything works.

Good afternoon all. No, I wasn't sleeping in! Every quarter, we have to spend a monday morning, in what is called "Quarterly Maintenance Conference",or what I unaffectionately refer to as "Quarterly Torture". OMG, what an incredibly long and boring morning!! Just for that, my productivity for the day will be somewhere around zero!! Hope everyone had a good weekend. Looks like the weater might turn to crap, if the weather weenies can make up their mind as to what it will do!!
?? Sheesh, and you talk about me slacking

hey Pat, welcome
according to channel 7 were only supposed to get an 1 inch or 2 at most, but everyone else is still calling for 2 to 6, so who knows for sure. Glad you can join us and sorry that you had to attend that torture meeting
