When I went out to crank my truck, it wouldn't do anything. no lights, no sounds, nothing. I've checked both batteries and both are hot. I've also cleaned, checked and re-connected and tightened all battery connections. I've checked all the fuses I know to check, and still nothing. Any idea?
Was it ok when you parked it? all gauges normal? Did you check the main power to the solonoid? Check the power with a meter so you know you have proper voltage. Turn on the key and start tugging gently on the power cables. It sounds like a bad connection and you need look for green monsters (corrosion) on the connections.
started fine this morning but then later during the day had to get a jump didnt work so went and got another battery
Has it been working fine all this time? did you check the conections on the starter?Try a set of jumper cables from the battery to the power distribution box ,use both the neg and pos if it works then try it without the cables one at a time.

See if you fuse box is getting power
Look under hood in fuse box for a power relay.I know some of these fords have a power relay that controls all power to vehicle.

It was running and cranking normally when I parked it a couple days ago. I am getting power to the solenoid. But as I said, nothing works, just like there's no battery on it.
