Check all the fuses in the box behind the left battery. Check the fusible links that come from the left battery too. That is about all I can do...........

Thats a fuse its one of the fuses on the end of the dash

There ya go! I knew somebody would come up with the right answer. Here I thought the fuse you wanted was under the hood........

I got a tow home from a buddy. But no wipers, radio, Turn signal, instrument gage dead, no dashlights. I am thinking ignition switch.

All fuses are good. Tested with test lamp

funny you talk about the tilt steering column. I did tilt it up to help my son buckle. then tried to start and that is where the problem started.

Well it is no longer a 911 issue. Now it is a broken truck in the driveway issue.

Even if it is not a 911 topic pull the cover around the steering column and you just may find a wire or two that are broken.

Yeah, we're still interested in what your problem is.

Well it was a broken wire at the ignition switch. I took the female spade out of the wiring harness and un-soldered & un-crimped it and  re-crimp & re-soldered again. All is ok now. I never move the tilt up and down but my son was having trouble putting his seatbelt on so i tilted the column up to reach behind to help and then it did not start. thank you guys for the help!
