I just p pumped my truck a few weeks ago. All has been going pretty well. I got in the truck tonight and headed down the road and realized that my guages had all quit working and it reads NO BUS, followed by the truck starting to sputter. Check my fuel pressure gauge and had no pressure at all.
Truck shuts off and I turn the key on and my pump isnt running. I ran my hot wire to the fuse box underhood and tapped into the vp44 solenoid, which is power key on and off when key off.... and has always worked well.
So I run the wire to the hot post on my battery and hit the key and all is well. It runs fine but still no gauges. I also noticed that when I turn on the key I hear 2 very loud clicking noises that I have never heard the entire time I owned the truck.....
From what I've read I should be checking grounds and so on. My only problem with the ground theory is........ IF MY LIFT PUMP SHUT OFF AND I HAD NO POWER AT THE RELAY FOR THE VP44, HOW IS EVERYONE RUNNING A VP44 STILL ABLE TO DRIVE IT, I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT IF I HAD THIS HAPPEN WHEN I HAD MY VP44 IT WOULD HAVE SHUT OFF!
Any thoughts guys.... I know this may be a fight to find this one.:stab:
