IOD=Ignition Off Draw It's the fuse that they pull out when they ship vehicles from the factory. It'll be under a yellow pull tab looking thing.

Triple check fuse # 28, it's a green 40A square fuse. Be on the radiator side of the panel.

I went outside and checked that fuse and it was fine. However, the batteries have somehow drained without me trying to start the truck and the negative battery cable connector on the driver side battery was hot. I disconnected the batteries again and let it sit(cable got back to normal temperature). Now I connected the batteries again and the negative cable has again gotten hot. I left the batteries disconnected.
Now Im real late to class lol. be back on later.
