So I’ve had an issue with my 5 ton lately where I’m driving it and occasionally I’ll let off the gas and then when I go to push the gas pedal back down the truck dies so I have to stop it turn everything off and re-power it in the other day the same thing happened, but this time the truck wouldn’t start so I first started with putting new batteries in and that didn’t do anything there’s no corrosion on any of the connections either and now when I go to turn everything on the fuel pump will not turn on and the power brake light doesn’t turn on. Also, the buzzer doesn’t work anymore for the break not the low air buzzer the buzzer that just goes off when you have the brake on. The low air buzzer wasn’t coming on either. Does anybody have any suggestions?

There is no electric fuel pump and I’m not sure what you mean by a power brake light.
I would start by screwing in the fuel shut off override. If it starts, you either have a bad fuel shut off solenoid or you’re losing power going to it.

Do you even own a 5 ton lol the power brake light you know the light that comes on when your E break his arm and the loud buzzing noise that happens while the E brake is on lol yeah that is not happening so that’s why I’m saying it’s something to do with the electric system

And yes, the fuel pump has electricity coming to it. It’s ran with a wire. How else do you think it’s gonna operate off of hopes and dreams? In the fuel pump still has voltage so it is getting power but when I turn it over, it’s obviously not working.

Can you post a picture of this fuel pump, guessing someone put an aftermarket inline on it? The brake light and buzzer are controlled by the failsafe module up on the drivers kick panel behind the dash. These are very common to fail, but should have nothing to do with the fuel shut off. Start by screwing the shutoff screw in as suggested.
