Hello, I have a 2003 navigator 5.4, 2 days ago warning light came on said check charging system (battery is only 6 months old), then last night went to store and when I came out truck wouldn't start and acted as if battery was dead, I got a jump and after got it started the radio was flicking on and off, there was a clicking and buzzing sound coming from fuse panel, abs and traction control warning lights came on, and when I turned the headlights on the truck died again. Got another jump but it wouldnt stay running...

Your battery is so dead and or shorted it won't allow enough current to keep the truck running it could be a wire ground or positive not allowing enough current take the battery back to the place of purchase and have it tested it should be under warranty.I wouldn't try to start it by jumping it anymore try a fresh hot battery I think it will fix it
Had the same problem. The abs light kept coming on..and the track I on control light also...as well as charging system failer....in no particular order.. Eventually the truck would not start at all. Battery completely dead...at the end of it all it was the altinator..and for the 5.7 liter it was 300 dollars...500 total just for that...including installation. It took away all problems....so I'm thinking the computer was just going haywire as the voltage was low...that's my stories...
