a couple weeks ago the truck needed a jump. Well the cables got hooked up wrong. Tje first thing to happen was the accessory fuse under the hood went. Next the truck would roll over but not start. I fiddled with the wiring harness and it started. next day nothing. Every once in awhile it will start but the next time nothing. thanks for your help.

this might help you, this i got from a previous post. it sounds like your problem


Right below the underhood fusebox, about 8" down the harness is a splice (#115), from that splice, it powers the PCM, Fuel Pump, and Coil. All four wires are Red/white, one comes from the fusebox, two go right back up to the relays, and the fourth goes the opposite direction to the PCM. You will have to unbolt the fusebox, pull it out of the way, and cut open the tape on the harness to find the splice.

I guess what happens is that water gets into the fusebox, drains down the harness, and eventually corrodes the splice into green powder (oxidized copper). You cannot tell if it is bad by looking at it, you will have to cut the tape off of the splice and inspect the connection. If you see and green or white residue on the connection under the tape, it has started to go bad and needs to be re-done (preferably by soldering).
