21 Limited - Gone Haywire

[adamgreen]

I have a 21 Limited. Parked at golf course yesterday, everything was fine. Got back to the truck and it would not start, would t even turn over, all the lights/ windows/ steps etc worked, hit the start button and the speakers would pop, almost like something was shorting through them. Then the step stopped working and the running lights would not turn off. Tried jumping it off, no go. Had to disconnect battery to get lights to turn off. Let it sit for 30 min or so with jumpers charging battery as it was disconnected. Hooked back up, step came down, wouldn’t go back up, tried to start, nothing but speaker pops, blind spot lights and dash would not go out after exiting truck for over ten minutes. Step never went back up. Again had to disconnect battery to get everything to turn off. After 3 hrs in the parking lot I had it towed to dealer.

Anyone experience this?

Yes -dead battery. It is amazing the number weird stuff that come up because of dead battery!

I thought maybe that was the case but was concerned it was in the computer. They just did the recall programming changes. I appreciate the feedback, good thing I have free roadside!

The etorque recall. I believe it only affected '21 models.
