Hello, yesterday my RAM 1500 slt laramie did not want to start after driving it. I turn the ignition and hear a click but there are no lights on dash and truck will not roll over. It's like there is no electric. Battery is good and cables are tight. Truck sits dead in my driveway please help. Thank you for your time.

Does anything electric work? Have you checked the 100 amp fuse in the power distribution box? Are the battery terminals clean and tight and the cables in good condition? Is the ground to the engine block clean and tight?

Let me know.
