Blank dash screen truck not starting.

[jimmytn]

2018 ram 1500 4x4 5.7 hemi.The screen in the center of the dash and the radio screen won't come on. Locks and lights come on. But when I go to start it nothing. Already checked battery it's good. Truck was running and I shut it off went back about 3 hrs later and it won't start. Anyone have any ideas what could be causing this.

How did you check the battery? Original battery?

Did you use one of those Amazon electronic battery tester? They do provide some useful info but not much. Did you test with a toaster type load tester on the battery?

These trucks have demons when battery is not good and all kinds of odd things happen / don't happen. Will truck start with a jump? My bet is the battery if in need of replacing.

Did you load test the battery? Measuring the voltage is Not a good check if you have a bad cell.
