I recently parked my truck at an airport park and ride for a week. Came back the battery was apparently dead (they left lights on). They were in the back parking lot for about 20 minutes trying to jump the truck. Finally brought it around.
On the drive home I noticed that the radio would not power up, the dash lights just above the radio weren't on and neither were the lights that illuminate the automatic shift lever. My guess it that the dopes at the park and ride had the jumper cables backwards when they were back there for 20 minutes.........does this sound like a possibility?
Aside from that, the fuses all seem to be ok and I'd like to troubleshoot myself before I take it to Ford...anyone have any suggestions on where to start?
Thanks
