    When I looked online, a bad or dead battery with low voltage will cause that. How old is the battery?

    Do you know that the alternator belt (don't know if your engine has one serpentine or two belts) is tensioned correctly?

    I haven't pay attention to that ,but truck after the next day it cranks like normal truck ,and it protects some how ,when its about to stall you have to pay close attention when the rmps drop a notch and just dies after dying and you want to started back on it won't do nothing ,its like no electric current passing by
