Shut the truck off, and now will not start. Any tricks to get her going again? Power to starter, power to switch. Relay clicks when button pushed. Trying to find out if the star inhibit button might be my problem before I drop a starter motor.

FMTV. Wiggle all the relays in the electrical box? Any known start inhibits on inadvertently like neutral safety switch?

Thanks for the suggestions. Yes, we were between San Clemente and Oceanside. It refired on its on own and we got to San Diego but she won't fire again. We are working on it to see if we can narrow it down. It is a m1078
