Try disconnecting the military twist plug from the lbcd and see if it will power up. The number one reason an A1 truck wont start is batteries and/or battery connections. There is a big shared ground at the starter also. Even if you are reading 24 volts does not mean the batts are good. Did the...
Pretty much anything is an upgrade from the tube with fins that originally came on the truck. The tube came before the M939 (pure air plus) abs air dryer and the purest is the next model up from that.
I get several pms every week from members looking for the upgraded lmtv air dryers. I DONT HAVE ANY MORE. Have not had them for some time. The air dryer you want is the Haldex purest type. The civilian model works fine it just has a 12v heater and the lmtv uses a 24v heater. It’s 3 screws on the...
Thats an output speed sensor related code. If replacing the sensor with a new one did not change symptoms and the wiring is known good it could still be a harness issue. I would check where the main harness mates to the pigtail coming off the trans. Look for corrosion or water infiltration into...
That’s an ac output. Used for driving a tach. Disconnect the wire. If you have ac on your dc power to your radio that would cause noise. I would check all of the grounds at alternator, batteries and frame to cab. That’s behind the grill on the passenger side.

The 3126 a1 power boards can develop bad solder joints. The earlier ones used eco friendly lower lead content solder that does not appear to last as long as regular 60/40. Its a multi layer board so you have to be careful if resoldering it.
There are screws on the metal framework the board is bolted to. The whole thing comes up the board stays bolted to the metal frame. So when you turn in the dash power switch the dash comes on but you just can’t crank? Can you manually raise the cab with the hand pump? You will need to get that...
