well it turns out the positive cable on the left side of the battery came loose and caused the problem.

i have an 05 and replaced my batteries this fall, maybe if your batteries have not been replaced this would be a good time to have them replaced.

takes a lot to turn these big guys over in the winter.

not a 5 min job changing out both of the batteries and they need to be changed together.
