Monday truck (2018 2500 gasser) was dead, no lights, bells whistles, nothing. Disconnected the negative terminal and it all came back on when reconnected. Now it's Thursday and it's happened 4 times since then. I got a new battery three weeks ago... so last night I disconnected the battery and left it disconnected all night hoping for some sort of reset. But while disconnected from the truck I put the trickle charger on the battery. When I came out this morning the trickle charger was blinking as if there was a problem with the battery. Even though the battery is new that doesn't mean its good. Could the battery have an issue, the truck senses it and decides to protect itself by disconnecting all electrical function? In other words, does perhaps the body control module sense an issue with the battery that the voltmeter doesn't (13.6 volts)?
