Hey fellas, I am going to be as descriptive as possible so we can hopefully fix my issue.
I have a 2001 F350 7.3 4x4 XLT supercab and here is my issue.
Whenever it rains really hard the electronics on my truck act up, for instance yesterday during the storm the radio only worked when I put it in park, otherwise there would be no audio coming out of the speakers however the radio would still remain on, just no sound. Other times when it rains I will shut off the truck and the engine will shut off, but all the accessories will stay on.
So now this morning I go to start my truck, the dash illuminates everything seems normal But the truck won't turn over. Doesn't even make a sound. So as of right now I replaced the fuse " starter motor relay coil/clutch switch 15a fuse " and it starts up. I drive it around and then shut it off, start it back up and the fuse blows again.
If any of you have any suggestions or ideas I would really appreciate your help thank you very much.
Update: So I just went out there just to look at it a little bit, I can hear a hissing noise coming from inside the fuse box maybe? Sounds like wires sparking or something, is it easy to take apart the fuse box I assume two wires are rubbing or something like that, or maybe some water got in there? while I was in the truck the cargo light kept coming on and off as well. Any help is appreciated But I think tomorrow I will try and take apart the fuse box.Would this explain why sometimes my rpm speedometer doesn't work sometimes too?
