| Description of the problem | The truck wouldn't start. There was plenty of power from the battery for the lights, bells and horn but the truck wouldn't make a single sound. By pulling an ignition fuse to see if blown i accidentally reset a control module in the steering column. This worked for a while but eventually that trick no longer worked and i had to call the free roadside assistance i got by buying the truck. |
