I'm hunting for same answer, lol. But my trucks 'burns out' the starter over time until it won't even 'cold-start'. I've been through about 7 starters over the past 2 years with one lasting only 27 days. One thing I have been told to check is the Main Relay Switch (which I could not find on my truck) or a Specialized Relay Switch (like a Starter Switch Relay or Combo Relay Switch).
