Hi guys well im in need of some help. 07.5 chevy 2500 hd duramax ext cab. I will try and be as straight forward as possible here.
Ok so july 15 i broke my leg and my truck sat for 3 weeks. A week before i broke my i replaced the starter because it was shot.
After i broke my leg my truck had an intermittwet start issue. It would run fr a few days and then no start for a few days. As time went on i noticed it would vary from every few hours.
I replaced the ignition switch and ran new ground wires to my passenger side battery. Ground to frame and ground to right side of engine block.
The intermittent start is still happening. My buddy came.over and we used cables and i cleaned the frame up a bit. I groudned the frame to the starter bolt and it fired. I also noticed no power to ky trigger wire on starter. (Small black one)?
But it fired up after using cables to ground the frame to starter housing/bolt.
It only seems to no start no crank when its cold out and moist. (Located in ontario). Sometimes at 7 am it wont start but by 11 am or noon when it warms up it fires up.
Also noticed last week my truck was almost chugging like cutting out in my driveway . Happened once and that was it.
This has got to be a bad ground ? What are my starting circuit grounds? I only did passenger side grounds so far. I need help i cant afford to bring it to dealer and its intermittent so its hard to get it there under no start conditions and i go on contract for snow removal soon. I need help.
