Why is my dash buzzing now? - Diesel Forum

My truck was fine on saturday, sat since then until I got in this morning. I put the key in the ignition and turned it to on and I got a buzzing sound for like 3 seconds and stopped, then I started the engine and it turned over slow like the batteries were almost dead. It normally starts up instantly. The buzzing is coming from behind the 4wd switch on the dash. Anybody had this or heard of this?

A loose or corroded battery connection.

If your batteries are old replace them both. If not try cleaning your connections and make sure they are getting a good connection.

Try it and see what happens.
