I got the gas out and hooked up a gas can with a new batery and turned the key the ignition switch didn't dim and nothing happened. I ran out of time so I couldn't look at it any further. Thought I might get lucky and there woud be a position for the gear selector. Guess not. I was going to jump the starter next to see if the starter was good or not. then trace things back to the switch. With a 900lb camper on the backof the tuck right now al I want is to get it off the truck so it will be easier to work on it. I plan to spend two to three weeks working on the truck figuring out how much work it will be then see how bad the camper is and how much it will take. Big project, I guess I won't look for any lucky breaks and just resolve myself that it's going to be a challange, but that's what I like.
