These trucks are designed to turn off, or make accessories run weird when voltage is low. They are also voltage happy vehicles, if they sense a weakness anywhere they can make it miserable for you. Your alternator's voltage may register fine, but when under a low it's crapping out, I can almost guarante this is your problem. When my alternator went, A/C, the radio, even my dash lights and the transmission were all acting funny. It got to where my radio wouldn't even turn on. I highly recommend an OEM or Bosch replacement, do NOT just use any aftermarket alternator, these trucks have been known to eat them in short time. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
