Ok so I had a cracked board in my fuse box. I replaced it and now my radio and windows do not work. I checked fuses and relays relating to both those including the delay acc fuse and relay. I'm stuck and I have no clue what to do. I tried searching but can't find anything.

so they worked with the cracked board but not wit the replacement?

i was thinking retained power but you checked that
Correct. The only thing effected by cracked board was starting truck. I could have it turned to run and everything worked. Once the fuse box was switched out it's like the relay isn't getting power. I don't know where my test light is but I can't hear/feel relay actuating. Somebody mentioned the gem but I thought those were for the 7.3 not the 6.0. Or am I mistaken? Anything at all would help me.

i have not messed with the retained power but if it's like most relays it interrupts the power between two leads so you may still hear the coil click but it may not have any power to interrupt

eBay board and it was model specific matched code 100% I did already pull it and reinstall. It's rather a simple install. I'm just getting a bit frustrated. Seems elec issues are my downfall.

the board has me worried and if i didn't have a sleeping chihuahua on my leg I would try and look in the wiring book to see where the power feed to the retained power relay comes from but that's my guess

did u compare the boards or is it to complex to do a side by side ?
