You will get much more help if you at least try to make your posts legible. How is requesting that you, or anyone else, use proper grammar in any way discriminatory?

When you join a forum, and want help with some specific issues, or want opinions on a scenario, you must be able to communicate with us properly. That is what a forum is for. Communication on a detailed topic. Making it easier for others to understand what you're talking about allows us to properly help you in a timely manner. We're all here because we want to be. It's OUR free time. No one is paying us to help you.

Chances are, if you decide to make a 10 line long paragraph of nothing but a giant run-on sentence, I'm not going to take 10 minutes of my time to try to decipher your poor excuse of an attempt to elaborate on whatever the heck you were talking about. Go on as you were. I wish you luck in solving your issues. I just made a simple request to help us help you better.

Did the gauges work before the battery was hooked up backwards?

I would start checking for burned wires since something electrical happened. Someone else will soon chime in.

Not so much grammar, as trying to decode just what it is you are talking about. The more clear about your problem you can be, the better we are able to help you.

From what I understand, there was also a recall done for ignition switches. Do you know if the truck has had any recalls performed?
