Readers,
07 6.0L recently Bullet Proofed. Driving this morning and noticed all the lights (dash, headlights) seemed dim. About 5 minutes into trip, the lights got a lot dimmer, the ABS light came on, then the battery light, then the wrench light. Lights almost completely went out and the truck started sputtering (no fuel being delivered?). About 3 more minutes the lights (all of them, dash headlights, radio etc) went dead and the truck shut down. Dash lights were flashing in and out, acting like a short. It took a jump and fired again only to shut back down when I unhooked the cables. Tried starting one last time (without cables) and it ticked like the battery is dead. Am I looking at A) Battery, B) Alternator, C) Wiring Harness, D) Get a new truck!
