Talk or PM Eric Hummer H1. He frequently uses my schematics to bypass box and directly activate glow-plugs. Unlikely you need to purchase a new box.

When you change the camshaft bearings, make sure you clock the oil holes correctly.

Compatible with whatever mechanism you install, so yes. I have purchased and will be installing soft door handles, but anything will work.

I purchased 1/4” thick Aluminum and made rock solid half doors. No need for soft door frame support. I used an angle grinder but plasma cutter will be faster. Things are bullet proof. My friend Eric HummerH1 added tops to similar units to make full doors. Super robust.

Get the removal tool for swollen unit. For broken tips, pull the injector and blow air from glow plug hole. Or reach in with handy flexible grabber extractor. On new injectors… liberal antisieze.

Rebuild the box. Seems like an epidemic recently. I posted about this years ago, and worked on a workaround with the help of many others. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/how-to-bypass-pcb-i-am-aware-some-hmmwv-owners-have-done-it-tobash.182560/ Welcome to the madness.

I’m beginning to look at weird options for future fun. RWH will be correct in stating these things are unnecessary. The current a/c compressor in HMMWV is mounted where the civilian alternator is mounted. Got me thinking about dual alternators for emergency with all electric compressor mounted...

The Five/Six Ton forum is where they first started making PCB’s, and none of this negativity happened there. There was mutual respect and appreciation. I actually quoted their PCB bypass thread in the included thread about DIY repairs. And IIRC they were not “site sponsoring vendors”, and they...

Depending on your state, DMV can make a new plate. They can actually make a 17 digit plate if you handle it correctly, depending on where you live. There are several YouTube videos on how to do this when you do not have a serial number. Usually this has to do with people buying restoration...

Exactly correct about driveway. This will most likely require freeway/highway over 50 MPH. IMHO

You may have a bad unit. They may have unplugged it to force the fan to stay on because it was not turning on or activating properly previously. If you reconnect that, watch your engine temperature very carefully and take your vehicle for a drive at highway speed, being prepared to pull off and...

Look carefully at the breadboard. I bet something is blown on that Nartron EESS.

If the PCB/EESS unit does not cycle properly it can blow glow plugs.

I posted… but many others contributed and/or were quoted. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/how-to-bypass-pcb-i-am-aware-some-hmmwv-owners-have-done-it-tobash.182560/

Re.: blown glow plugs. Rebuild you PCB/EESS as per my posted instructions, or purchase a rebuilt or a new unit. IMHO

The more I work on HMMWV, the happier I am that I’m able to make parts with angle grinders and plasma cutters. Enough people make fake display 50-cals and munitions. You can whip that piece out in 10 minutes with a plasma cutter, a drill, some drill bits, and a grinder. Then just bend or make...

Can’t see how start box would cause smoke unless it was affecting fuel cut off switch somehow

You get what you pay for Bulldogger. Search and read about rebuild nightmares.
