'Kay here's the story. Almost 2 years ago I had a dealer install a new fuel pump for me. Ever since then it ran fine ... around town. But 50-60 minutes of driving on the highway and the truck would die like I turned it off. No warning. By the time I got it off the road and stopped it would usually fire right back up again.
So I booked it back in with them. They couldn't replicate the problem and charged me $175 for that opinion. So I just put it off till I had time to deal with it. 3 months later it wouldn't start after a shutoff so I had it towed to the same dealer. They said it needed a new ignition switch.
I put one in and away we went for awhile. But now it has developed some other problems it didn't have before. When I put it in gear it blows the signal light fuse. Sometimes. The windshield wiper will occasionally stop or not park correctly. But not always. It may go a week or two without any thing happening. Then like today it blew 4 fuses in a row and then ... stopped. The indicator light for the gears doesn't always work but most of the time it does. The 4 wheel drive switch sometimes wont engage on first push and the light "may" stay on.
I have figured out that the fuel relay is getting hot but not why.
Do these seemingly disparate things share a common ground?
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
