As an update I have 100% confirmed that my PCB is on the fritz. Every other time now requires a thorough thumping to get it to "click over" so the truck can be started. Once the weather warms up I'll get one ordered and replace it. Then I'll tackle the ABS fault. I've got to say though that...

That's brilliant. When I make up my road-ready tool kit I'll be sure to have a section of 4-8 copper wire. Out of curiosity, what tool did you use to get that giant castle nut off? Haven't removed mine yet, but I'm guessing a pair of channellocks will do it.

I may just bite the bullet and pick up a new PCB. Replacing it might make a few of my electrical issues disappear. I'd rather do that then replace four 6TL batteries.

VERY interesting... Indeed my lower blower works, but high does not. I have an undiagnosed ABS fault so the light is on (which is my next project to tackle). As far as the ABS is concerned it does not even self check so its either a bad ECU or its not getting power at all. I can tell you already...

Solid advice. I've already got a few wrenches, including a big 1.5" adjustable, in the cab. I might do a search on here for a thread for the ideal emergency/road-ready tool kit and put something a bit more comprehensive.

If this happens again I'll surely take note. As I'm not 100% sure what caused this it's a bit unnerving that it may happen while I'm out and about (instead of happening when it is safely parked).

UPDATE So I went out tonight with tools in-hand to take a crack at this thing. I should note it was just as cold as it was the night it failed to turn (about 36 degrees F). First I made sure the batteries were still putting out 24v. Indeed they did - multimeter confirms just over 24v. I then...

Very true! Now I did indeed make sure it was in neutral. That I'm sure of. Question at large though... When shutting off the truck I leave the the shifter in neutral. Once shutdown is complete I move it to 1-5 where it sits until I go to start next time (moving it back to N of course). This...

Starting a thread here to get some ideas flowing. Hopefully I'll have time this Sunday to dig into the problem a bit further. So I go out Friday (12-19-14) around 2300 to start & warm up my 1990 BMY M923A2. I flick on the battery switch, turn the ignition to run and nothing. No clicks, no...
