well i tryed to start my truck yesterday mid day, and it would turn over fine just wont fire. at first i thought maybe its the batterys, but both of them showed the color green threw the window on the batterys.
i towed it to the dealer and they hooked up the truck to there machine. the machine told them its a electical issue. but it couldnt pin point the problem. so now there have to test each wire too see if theres a short somewhere.

has anybody had a problem like this before? or can anybody give me some ideas that i could tell them to check. well what does everybody think.

just so you guys know, i drove the truck from utah to san diego. then parked it over night and tryed to start it the next day..
thanks guys

It had better NOT be bad gas. Maybe a bad tank of diesel, but NOT gas. That is a bad word here.

maybe a wiring harness ground...issue...
no matter what you should be covered underwarrenty...
and they SHOULD give you a car if youre w/in the 3yr/36k

i wouldnt trust the "green" eye of any battery...have 'em load
tested (although your truck is so new i wouldnt suspect the batteries...
although thats EXACTLY why id test 'em)
