Truck want start. Electrical, sensor problems, 99 3/4 ton

Been having trouble with my truck starting. Now it want even turn over. Would turn over but not start. Engine check engine light had been on and off. Went to parts house and the computer said cam positioning sensor. Thought that did it. Truck was running rough. Engine light came on again. Went back to parts house. Crank shaft positioning sensor. Thought that fixed it. Light still coming on and off. Now when I try to crank it all I get is a click coming from drivers seat. Truck has 306,000 miles. Shoot me or help me!
Thanks

check your positive and ground connections, starting with the batteries and working downstream. you will find the problem.

That was the problem. Had unhooked the battery cables and had not tightened one back. Getting old and senile. Should have checked but just knew I had reconnected everything.


Thanks
