Hello all I'm stumped need help. Original owner 08 1500 5.7 4X4 290,000 km, been great truck so far!!
Drove home in huge snow storm last week (wet heavy snow) got 1 block from home serv 4wd light came on. Once in driveway tried switching 2wd / 4auto / 4 high light only blinked. Turned truck off no crank!! Actually starter clicks fan blade turns about 2". Try hitting key 50% of time it clicks and turns that 2" other times nothing.
Replaced battery and starter as neither have ever been done. Cleaned cables up well, no better same thing. Tried run booster cable from pos battery post to small wire on solenoid eng motors fast no fire at all just spins (key in run position).
Figured has to be ingition switch, replaced it no better.
Grounds look good/tight/no corrosion.
No codes except egr been on for couple weeks never replaced yet but wouldnt cause no crank (I think).
Thinking neutral safety switch???? Hoping not tipm but thinking probably is. I don't want to spend $1500 on 1 troubleshooting. Tried stating in neutral no better.
There were 3 or 4 " of slush and ice covering rear of tranny and transfer case, possibly short something if cracked wire????
Any help be greatly appreciated!!
