I just puled out the radio from my 1986 F250 Reg. Cab. But when i needed to go to best buy to get some stuff to replace the radio my truck wouldnt start what could be wrong?
Thats what im thinking thankyou i will check them later but unfortunately im not sure because when i turn the key its NOT just like clicking the engine is actually like grinding like its trying to turn over but it just cant make it all the way and i tried jump starting it but that didnt work plus the guy i bought it from said he just put a brand new battery in it.

First check all your fuses and replace as needed. Then check all your grounds/powers at cluster connector(get wire diagram). If all power/ ground check fine you will need a cluster assembly.
Check harness with test light over on drives side under hood, you'll see a few connector that go into the fire wall, check at connector at both ends of plug for voltage, also check for fuse links at stater solenoid.
try puling the fuse out of the back of the radio and then letting it sit for an hour then you have to push a sequance of buttons to put the radio code in so it will unlock
Seems regular maintenance would be required for your cable issues, and lubing them or limiting your salt water/road salt exposure and/or any underwater/extended wet exposure. Other than replacing the mechanical section INSIDE the cab, there's nothing else that can be replaced. Besides buying a new truck. ;) Cheers.
