Bronco to work on these hot days w. no doors has been awesome until tonight. Cruising along and the radio goes beep, beep, beep like it always does when I shut the ignition off. Truck was still running for a few seconds and then died. No lights, no smoke, no noises, nothing. Dead. No headlights, radio, no nothing. Of course I was downtown (for all of the town to witness) and was able to coast to the side of the road, but everyone going by giving thumbs up had no idea how aggravated I was. Popped the hood and everything looked fine. AAA towed it home and helped me push it into the garage. OK., what happened? Of course my multi-meter is at camp (all the tools I need at home are always at camp it seems). I jumped the starter sol. batt. side terminal to the "S" terminal and the truck turned over normally. So, battery must be good. It's got to be something right after the battery I think. Anyone know if there is a giant fuse or fusible link before getting to the ignition switch maybe? My manual doesn't show it.
