No DIS, No Crank, No Start
I searched this forum for a similar problem but couldn't find something close. I was in the middle of completing my TP2 conversion. I had installed all factory parts for the conversion and was waiting on my terminals to place into the X2 connector as Omandave had pointed out on this forum with his conversion. I was going to document for a future post, but now am not so sure if I did something wrong. So, over the weekend I installed all the cables, battery, solenoid and harness. I reconnected everything and only left out the terminal pins and ground coming from the solenoid harness. Everything functioned normally truck started, pulled it out of the garage.
I was able to start the truck normally. Last night when the pins arrived, I connected the terminals in A5 and B4 in the X2 accordingly and closed the fuse box. I connected the 4 pin plug for the TP2 solenoid and tested everything with a power probe, using the ground lead on the probe to check for connection. Everything that was supposed to have ground and connection did. I reconnected the battery, first he primary on the passenger side, then the auxiliary battery and everything seemed normal. Went to start the truck and nothing. I hear the relay / solenoid making contact for the 2nd battery, but no crank, just a click of the solenoid. I also noticed the DIS was not working, no message or illumination, but I do have headlights, and everything inside works. Radio, windows, locks.. I checked all the fuses in the main fuse box, nothing blown and didn't have a chance to check the fuse box inside the dash. I originally thought it could be the BCM, but everything functions as it should, just no DIS and crank. I disconnected everything with the 2nd battery, thinking there was an issue but still the same result.
I'm going to re-check my grounds and the starter solenoid / wiring which I had to add a new power cable to for the updated harness, but I'm scratching my head with this one. The truck started and drove fine when I pulled it into the garage but after just connecting the pins and harness, nothing...
Any direction on what to look for would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
