Just bought this truck two weeks ago and it’s been acting perfectly fine. The truck today had the maintenance light turn on, but not the engine light and then it went away and then I pulled into a parking lot in the maintenance and engine light kicked on then I had a no start no switch Encounter. We just replaced the starter and it’s still not doing anything. The fuses were checked and they all look fine and they’re all getting voltage. Has anyone had a similar experience and what exactly.

Being it’s an ex police truck there could be anything going on. That’s a bold move buying an ex law inforcement vehicle, idle time is the ultimate slow killer of engines. But as someone else stated the battery management system on these is all kinds of finnicky. Don’t just voltage test the battery, load test it and go from there.

Ultimate test is to test a circuit in operation to see where the voltage is at the load aka what should be getting the voltage vs things before it.
