    A lot more details would definitely help. How long has the truck been sitting, no lights or radio but is the truck cranking over? To start with I usually always check the main grounds first

    Let's start with basic easy checks.
    Do the brake lights work?
    Do the head lights work?

    This will tell us where to start looking.

    So the brake lights do NOT work?
    But the headlights do?

    Correct?

    If so, The 80A ALT Fuse may be bad.

    Man, crazy but yes got headlights (no backlight's, no brake lights, no dash, no blinkers, no radio. But we got dang headlight (low and high) beams. Wait we do have one other thing working the interior light above my head. That's that. That 80A ALT Fuse. TnShooter thanks that fuse has a small breakage or hole on its side. Sure, thinking it's time to get a new one. Thanks man. Keep you updated. Thanks.
