Re: Help with electrical problems

TB's do some crazy things when the ignition switch goes bad, but you usually get a no-start condition along with it. Some vehicles will light up the E-brake and ABS lights when the alternator is not putting out enough juice & you will loose hi amp draw items like fans and blowers. Be sure to verify ~14VDC across the battery leads with a hand-held voltmeter on an idling truck. You cannot go by the dash gauge for this. Anything less than 14VDC on the truck at idle means something is up with the charging system.
