I’ve been having electrical issues with my truck since this winter. When it gets pretty cold (Below 30 degrees), the truck just won’t turn over. I jump it off with another truck and it cranks right up. Both batteries are less than 6 months old, I’ve had the alternator checked and it checks out, proper put-out. Since the weather has started to warm up, it haven’t had any trouble with it starting until this past weekend. Went out to crank it up Saturday morning and it wouldn't crank (wouldn't turn over - batteries were dead). Had to jump it off. Every since, it’s been sounding weak starting, but it’s been starting. And when I jump it off another truck, it turns over great. So I don’t think it’s the starter. I’ve cleaned the cables to where they shine.
A buddy of mine said he kind of had the same issue and he fixed his by replacing all of his cables. He said they corrode away from the connections, inside the rubber coatings. Has anybody else had this issue? Has anybody changed their cables? If so, which cables did you change and did you get them all from the dealership? I’ve noticed that a few of them have odd connectors.
Thanks in advance for your feedback!
