Hi summitawd

Welcome to the Forum.

This sounds like a Main Power supply problem. I would check the connections on the battery first.

Make sure both Positive and Negative wires are "clean" and "secure".

How old is the battery?

Does the Alternator Gauge show charging when the engine is running?

Please let us know, were here to do our best to help. Thanks.:)

Hi summitawd
Ok, then check in behind the battery where the fuseable links are hooked up and make sure none are blown. If you the fuseable links are fine and you still have a power short/draw, then start pulling fuses until you find the line the short/draw is on. You will need a multi-meter (volt meter) for this trouble shooting.

Please keep us updated, thanks.:)
