2003 F-350 7.3 Power Stroke
I posted this problem about a month ago received some insight and advise but I cannot figure out what is causing the problem.
I will restate the scenario, intermittently and simultaneously the radio, power windows, and map lights do not work. There is no connection with wet weather or truck washing, all other electrical components function properly, and slapping the dash above the radio sometimes makes everything work again.
I have replaced the delayed accessory relay, checked all of the fuses, removed the radio (to see if that effected things), and checked all ground connections that I could find. Disconnecting the batteries and then reconnecting will make things work, but as soon as turn off the truck and later start it up again the problem comes back.
I am at my wits end with this and am worried if this is a precursor to a larger problem.
Any help or advise is welcome and greatly appreciated!
Thank you, Ryno

You may want to try to post down in the 7.3 forum. You will get a lot of people just with 7.3s who can help out. Just scroll down through the forums. Or maybe your electrical gremlins could be shared by all Super Duties, I don't know.
