I also have the original parts numbers for those of you that are interested and the replacement parts numbers which took the power away. the parts that should be in your truck are as follows: (oh by the way the manual lists these parts as a battery saver and some other b.s the reason I noticed mine changed color is I was using the "security system" it came with which consisted of removing the 30 amp colored fuse on the lower right so I was in and out of there alot and it just seemed so unbelievable I talked myself into thinking it had always been yellowthat is until I finally tried the original black ones last week.. and got my truck back minus the super charger anyways the part numbers you want in your fuse relay positions are from top to bottom: POSITION #1) F57B-14B192-AA / 1339A32D
POSITION #2) F57B-14B192-AA / 1353A12E
POSITION #3) FOAB-14B192-AA / 1345 C1
POSITION #4) FOAB-14B192-AA / 2006 C3
POSITION #5) FOAB-14B192-AA / 2006 C3

THE FUSE RELAY PARTS THAT ALTERED MY TRUCK FROM A SUPERCHARGED V-8 TO A PREMIUM GUZZLING RUNS LIKE A MESSED UP SIX CYLINDER ARE AS FOLLOWS:
POSITION #1) F57B-14B192-AA / 019 02 13:30
POSITION #2) YELLOW RELAY YL3T-14B192-AA / 2008 C3
POSITION #3) DISABLED FROM BEHIND
POSITION #4) FOAB-14B192-AA / 2006 C3
POSITION #5) FOAB-14B192-AA / 2006 C3

SO MY ADVISE IS CHECK YOUR INTERIOR FUSE PANEL AND IF YOU HAVE A YELLOW ONE AND ONE MISSING GIVE ME A CALL i HAVE AN ATTORNEY AND EVERYTHING AND I KNOW i AM NOT THE ONLY ONE. OMNE THING I FOUND INTERESTING IS THAT WHEN MY TRUCK MESSED UP THE NEEDLE ON MY SUPERCHARGER BOOST GAUGE STARTED JUMPING AROUND AND I NO LONGER COULD HEAR IT KICK IN BUT BECAUSE THE NEEDLE MOVED ON THE GAGE I ASSUMED IT WAS CONNECTED I THOUGHT THERE MIGHT BE A VACCUM LEAK BUT WAS SURE IT WAS CONNECTED. NOW I KNOW IT IS NOT BECAUSE IT IS THE 3RD RELLAY. WHEN I WAS PUTTING THE ORGINAL PARTS IN I HAD THE TWO TOP ONE SWITCHED AROUND WRONG AT FIRST AND IT WAS INTERESTING TO NOTE THAT WHEN THEY WERE IN THIS POSITION THE BOOST GAGE WENT ALL THE WAY TO 10 WITH NO POWER OR SOUND FROM THE SUPER CHARGER. ANYWAYS i KNOW THIS SOUNDS UNBELIEVABLE BUT IF YOU HAVE LOST POWER AND HAVE A YELLOW FUSE RELAY PLEASE CALL. THANKS, GIGI (562) 627-0305
