Not trying to one up you, but I found out when we got back to camp that my 715 was in 2wd the entire time as well. Colton when he was driving put it in low, but not 4x4. Unlock the hubs and crawl under the truck. The front drive shaft should turn with the tcase in 2wd. Lock in a hub. The...

I agree, that cable shorting out could be your problem. When you hook up the batteries with the key and lights off, do you get a spark? If so, then something somewhere on the truck is shorting out. Oh, the alternator should have been rebuilt as a 12V unit. Technically, it should be a 12...

I hate to write it, but it seems you have either the wrong one or a bad one. Take your other "new" replacement one and put it in a pot of water. Heat the pot up and use your infrared gun to see when it actually opens. You do have the hockey puck looking one, right?

Besides the Delco site, the -34 TM also walks you through the tear down, testing and putting together of an alternator. There have been several threads on this site with all the information and pictures of this job. It is really pretty easy and once you open it up, you will see how things go...

2 adult xl 1 adult medium 1 adult small I just got off the phone with him. He was very happy about the idea.

Blue Bomber Joe, NO. Our newly re-elected governor graciously gave us 4 hours of holiday leave for this afternoon. That means the students are all in a frenzy to get their gang messages passed, contraband hidden and such before we all go home in 34 minutes. I have the new belt sitting on...

Regular neck for mine as well.

Joe, heh heh, we have two Joes posting in the same thread. Um, Joe in Cleveland, I know you have way more experience with MV's than I do. However, the way you phrased your question made me think you had been drinking the dog water again. So I put the answer in very simple terms. I didn't...

Page 275 of the -20 has a diagram with sub notes about what goes where in the fuse panel. Does your voltage meter in the dash work?

It might be time to pull the gauge panel, set it on the kitchen table and trace every single contact to its bulb/gauge. Verify each one works and clean the heck out of the contacts if they don't. Clean the contacts on the big plug as well. While you have it out, look at the ground wire on...

Joe, 24 volt truck running a 24 volt starter right? Batteries -negative to ground and positive of bat 1 to negative bat 2. Positive bat 2 to starter. Wait a minute. The M37 had a pedal to push that activated the starter, not a button, right? That means you need to add a button. Either a hand...

Mainly for breaks, broken insulation, corroded connections and anything else that might cause it not to conduct all the time.

I would say to check the pink wire every inch of the way from the sender to the gauge. Also, the grounds for the gauge panel. There is a huge collection of ground wires bolted to the top of the parking brake pedal housing over on the side. I write all of that because GM gauges historically...

The -20 manual has a great trouble shooting section that talks you through checking just about everything on the truck that can break. The fuel gauge section tells you to ground the sender wire at the tank, turn on the key and see what the gauge does. Needle to E means the sender is bad or...

What model?

Have you had the dash out recently? If the big power plug for the dash is just a little loose, when it moves around it will often cause one of the indicator lights to come on. At least that has been my experience putting one back in. More than likely, it is the bad ground mentioned in the...

I agree that the truck doesn't care which one you use. I will also say that being stuck on a long slope with a big load in 3rd hi. Means you are really stuck in that gear since going up isn't going to happen and going down is going to be right at red line. I prefer to work down to low 4th...

The starter relay is under the dash. The starter solenoid is on the starter motor and what makes the bendix gear move out.

If you can wobble the pump shaft, then it is shot. Sound like you need a new one.

They are around $50 each new. I doubt you are going to find working used for less than $30 or so each. If you are determined to get used, they are on ebay all the time. However, that extra $20 is going to seem pretty cheap once you try to fix the faded, panted over lense and corroded bulb...
