Truck won't crank, no power despite good battery

Asked by AnmlMoth3r Aug 14, 2018 at 11:44 PM about the 1979 Chevrolet C/K 10 Cheyenne

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My 350 K10 was driving great, and this morning it wouldn't crank. The dash
lights wouldn't even come on. I assumed I left something turned on and
drained the battery, so I tried to jump it. Nothing. I changed out the batter with
a new one. Nothing.

Check and clean all the power feeds and grounds on the main circut (battery, alternator and starter) and that your battery terminals and the wires going into them are in good, uncorroded condition
