1979 J10. 4.2 Ran fine, then I shut it off.
So, I was driving around the yard after the truck sat for about 3 weeks. It was running good, then I shut it off. Turned the key to fire her back up, and nothing. Then, none of the lights would work. Now nothing. Is there a main fuse or something? Any ideas would be great.
Thanks!!

Did you check to make sure the cables are tight and clean?

First thing I checked. I hooked it up to my car with jumpers, and still nothing.

Could also possibly be the ignition switch or voltage regulator.

It sounds a lot like a bad connection or wire that finally let go. Best bet is to see where you have power and keep probing until you find the place you don't.

Look at the fusable link on the solinoid.
