truck wont start

[sons70]

I am at a loss. I can not get my truck to start. It started with clicking noises so I took the starter out and had it tested. It testd fine. I then checked all of the fuses and replaced the starter fuse in the engine block. Still wont start. I proceeded to try to jump it. the radio will not even turn on. I replaced the battery and now I am out of ideas. Can anyone help me with another idea.

have you checked the main power cable? maybe its bad internaly.

It could be a bad Battery Power cable or bad ground to starter or bad power connection to starter.

Check for corrosion.

Also the solenoid maybe no good or corroded connections, the solenoid should be on the passenger side of the vehicle under the hood behind the battery.

Opps.... I think the starter solenoid is in the engine compartment, on the

driver's side inner fender, mounted between the ABS pump and the

power distribution box for your vehicle.

That pic is of the passenger side, but it shows you what the solenoid (starter relay) looks like.
