That's it. Truck won't start. It turns over and gauges come up but NOT RUNNING. Wait to start light doesn't come on at all and I can't hear lift pump.

I've replaced the following parts: OPS, CTS, PMD with remote harness and cooler, ignition switch.

Most likely unrelated, but daytime running lights haven't been coming on lately. This is an electrical problem for sure. What can it be?

What besides the ignition switch is a common power source to glows and lift pump?

What would effect the glows and the fuel supply at the same time??

During the last 2 months, it would stall when driving with same symptoms listed above. After about 5 minutes, it would fire up again and would be fine for about 2 weeks. Or it could happen again the same day. Now it's ready for a piggy back ride to the dealership.:cool:

Been a while but on my 95 there were several fuseable links in the harness at different locations. May want to look at them they may have burned open or just corroded open??

under the hood? Or under the dash?
