1998 4.0 AX-15
Vehicle has been sitting for about two years now. last year I started it and found out the alternator was seized, smoke on start up and let it run for thirty seconds, shut it down and the serp belt shredded as it shut down. fast forward to today... gave the rig to a buddy and he spent time this afternoon putting in a new alternator and a fresh battery. We go to start the rig and nothing... no radio, headlights, nada. Years ago I put the starter on a push start button hot to the battery, starter spins fine and engine is turning over, but with no power in the cab nothing is happening. I checked grounds and they are all good. I have main power and grounds from 5-90 and I checked my main breaker and that is good, started pulling fuses but am coming up short. Any thoughts on where I should be looking would be appreciated.
