It is in the dash fuse panel in the SD trucks, but in some cars it is under the hood. It is a larger fuse 60A or higher.

thanks JC but thiss truck is a 88 it does not have any big fuse like that. all the fuseable links though were checked. you wouldnt happen to know what the 4 pins on the voltage regulator go to.
