NEED HELP!!

I had a set of 100W fog lights on my rig and powered them out of the interior fuse block from the open slot to keyed power on upper left side of fuse block 2 years ago with no problems.

I changed to a different set of for lights (HID) 65/55 high lows used that same point for power. Now my truck wont start and I have no power to three fuses in cab fuse block ECU-IG , ACC or GAGES ?. I still have power to everything else, no blown fuses or fusible links.When I try to start it I can hear the starter relay click

rodskwad,

The first thing I would do is disconnect the lights, recharge the battery and then try to start.

THANKS jetwhine I should've said I removed the lights when it happend and have a full charge on the battery. I have yet to check the starter.

I had ONE BAD day at work so I can't get things done as quick as I use to LOL so I'm waiting for my son's help to get that done later today.Figuring out the power loss to the three fuse ports in the in cab fuse block has to be dealt with that is were I think the no start problem is ?? I've been told that there is a computer board in the fuse block ? I have no way of checkin that kinda tech.

rodskwad,

Hopefully that is all that fried are the fuses and nothing more. The fuese should protect the rest of the system and wiring. Maybe just replaceing them with the lights disconnected and see if all is well.
