Hello everyone,
If this is in the wrong section let me know and I will create a thread in the appropriate section.
Here is the issue. The truck is acting funny, started it this morning, and it died after about 10 minutes. The truck would not start again right away. After 5 minutes, it started once more, and proceeded to die after 30 seconds.
Then I went home for lunch, and had a feeling the truck would start. It confirmed my feeling by starting.
To add to this, I had a similar problem about a month and a half ago, only on that occasion the truck did not start for a few days.
I thought it was fuel pump. Then I realized my windshield wipers were acting weird on and off. I would press the wiper fluid switch, and instead of getting wiper fluid and 5 or so wipes of the windshield, I would get no wiper fluid and about 10 wipes of the windshield before it would stop.
This has me thinking I may have a bad ground somewhere. Has anyone encountered something similar? Should I be prepared to dig up some wiring schematics and spend a day under the dash and in the Engine bay? Are there some circuits within our trucks that are known for going bad?
The truck is a 92 K2500 with 180,000 miles.
Thank you,
Daniel
