I gotta give my hubby an attaboy! 3 days and no smoking AND he's losing some pounds! I'm prepping for my start date and have cut mine in half.:)

I will have the Qualcomm guru call you.

He called...Thanks!

I actually believe it may be an issue on my end involving battery problems that Im still having. Both times that mine has acted up have been immediately following a dead battery situation.

I got it. Not sure if that's my issue, but I'm going to check.

Rocketman, you might have something here. My truck was running fine about an hour ago. Shut it off, went in to do laundry and eat. Come back out, and its dead as a door nail. Nothing. Turn the key to the off position, and the Qualcomm comes on. Turn the key to start the truck, and everything goes dead. Must have a short in the ignition switch, or in that circuit.

Sitting in GA waiting for road service to come and see what might be wrong with this truck.

Ouch!

So...if your qualcom croaks like a frog one day....better start checkin your electrical system out! :)

Or.... if you have a dead battery one day.... don't be surprised when your qualcom starts croaking like a frog! :)

Good part is... that's the only symptom I saw.

Well, it was a loose chassis ground. Being fixed right now and I should be able to go back in service very shortly.
