Power to starter relay but goes away when you engage starter switch.

Welcome to TBN
What you describe sounds typical for loose/corroded battery cable connection or faulty battery. I suggest to clean/tighten all FOUR(4) battery cable ends & have battery load tested.

I just found the problem. In the wiring harness that plug in right in front of the cab. I unplugged it to start trying to Isolate the problem and seen where
Moisture had gotten in and corroded the power connection cleaned it and it started.

Thanks to your reply it got me started in the right directions

I’ve been having no power issues with my 5101E open station.

I replaced battery.

Then a month later : same thing no dash lights = Nothing.

Turned out to be a bad connection at positive battery terminal 🤬

And it wasn’t loose.
