    Added a fuel tank. But lost power to the fuse box under the dash that controls the radio, mirrors, acc, and cig lighter. Can't figure out why.

    With so many components not powered, I'd check all the large connectors. And retrace the areas you were working at during the aux fuel tank install.

    With the entire fuse box without power, sounds like something shorted out. Need more info on what you did to install the aux fuel tank. Any other changes/mods?

    @supermotobobby the auxillary tank is in the bed. I'll post photos tomorrow
    @timsp8 the entire fuse box is not out, only 3 fuse ports at the dash panel are not getting power, cig, acc & radio. Found a relay that control those ports, changed it but they still do not work. ☹️

    @timsp8 I'll post photos tomorrow. Auxillary tank is in the bed. Installed ball valve filter, selinoid valve, and fuel pump. Initially ran power for selinoid and fuel pump to a toggle switch then the acc fuse. I think switch was bad. Nothing worked. Replace toggle then got a fuse link and ran directly to the battery. Pump worked, getting gas The next day went to start truck, battery was dead. Jumped the truck drove it and realized radio wasnt working when I put the kid in the car and went to turn on the dvd for him.☹️
