Radio Wacky

I recently bought a 2006 Mega Cab 6 speed manual transmission and sometimes the radio will come on and sometimes it is dead. I can usually turn the truck off and then re-start it and the radio will work. Another item the truck I know has a switch on the clutch that has to be pressed to start the motor but you have to push the clutch way in and sometimes it wont make the starter work. Any help would be great.

check to make sure the bracket that holds the clutch start switch is tight .

I had the same thing with my 03 and the dealers keep putting a new one! When i was in TX this winter the shop down there put in a new boster and that took care of it. The other shops did not know to check the boster had 5 new ones. The dealer is in Huntsville that fixed it.

Mine started having the same issue, then the interior lights would shut off quicly after you opened the door. About a couple weeks later, truck would not start. Replaced the batteries and has been great ever since..
