So do I. Especially when I can't find the issue. Hahaha. Thought I found it with the cord. Looked like a rock rubbed the insulation off. So I took the cord out, looked at it and no wires are showing, but was thin.

Are the connectors tight? Have the pins pushed back? Are your grounds good?

Sounds like a bad ground. We had to add a chassis ground on our 2017 f350s because they wood say the same thing. It was like the factory ground wasn't good enough.
