And if it has two they usually cover three cells with each one.

Re: For better or worse, shes in my driveway.

ordered an electrical guide to help me out with it. I don't see any issues under the dash, so it looks like I just have to go through the engine bay

Make sure the BRAKES WORK first!
I would take out the tail light bulb and check it for 6 or 12VDC

Yeah, so the brakes don't work. I pulled a wheel off today to look inside and its caked with grease. Looks like a cleanup job first before I can even figure out what's going on. Some of the parts I'm wondering if I just go and get new ones instead of messing with cleaning up; like brake pads and master cylinder.

Got the emergency brake unstuck but have no idea if it even works since it was set when we rolled the truck on and off the trailer for transport with the wheels spinning freely.
