Hello fortification nation! I have a 1969 F100 360 v8. Truck was running great and started every time no problems. The only issue I had was I couldn't get the brake lights or rear signal lights to work. All other lights were functioning properly. Then last weekend I put a trailer on the back of the truck, drove it to a stone place, loaded the trailer with a yard of decomposed granite and when I turned the key I got nothing. So I tried to jump it, didn't work. We put a new solenoid in it, no luck. Put a new starter on her, nothing. Checked the battery, it read as a bad battery so I got a new battery, put it in and still nothing, there is no response to the turn of the key at all. Any ideas???
Thanks!
