Wow, a real spaced out moment there. LOL. Call me Captain Obvious. Can't spell oblivious without obvious.

Did you disconnect the fuel sender? The device that tells you Full-Empty? You don't mention it.

P.S. I can certainly use a few more old Prestolite boxes! Some damaged components in mine are not identifiable. Please PM me if you have any. T [EDIT] - I also request two or three dead or working AMETEK PCB units for evaluation. Please PM me if you have any for donation or sale.

I opened an old Prestolite box today, and it further confirms my suspicions. It contains 3 relays and a circuit board without any integrated circuits. Looks like one relay is for ignition and one is for glow plugs, and one is for general electricals. Reminds me of the story of the brilliance...

Dropping is the best way. Period. Next best is disconnect fuel lines and drain Diesel fuel. Next powerwash and then vacuum out water with wet vac. Then use compressed air to dry the system. Let sit for a few days to allow water to evaporate. Then use a borescope to look inside and confirm clean...

Chaplain... your post really lifted my heart! I'm still laughing days later. I'd forgotten about that tune from a more gentle era gone by. [Seems I remember it from the days of "Dr. Demento".] Thanks again.

Nartron self canceling.

Looks like you're trying to be honest, and kudos to you. In defense of the other poster's comments, there have been a few posts where people have tried to register by trying to skirt local law. I just remembered the sticky prohibiting this stuff, so I post it before a Moderator or the site...

To replace the light on the turn signal to allow LED lights and indicators to work

Any source and style of LED I should order/order from? Thanks

Just wrote 1987 AMG HMMWV When get home I will check registration card to see what they wrote. EDIT - Agree with Action who posted below to copy prior title. I copied prior title verbatim.

In New York I had to call over a supervisor to click a special screen for the 6 digit VIN. If I were you, I might bring a printed picture of the VIN plate. That is what helped me in NY. The supervisor took one look and then looked and the prior title from another state with the same 6 digit...

If you just need to jumper an external wire, I would leave the PCB alone, because that seems NOT to be the problem IMHO.

TAGE makes an excellent point about a bad ribbon. The way to repair a bad ribbon in many cases is to use paint on auto defroster electrical paint. It will complete many circuits well. My apology was for Doghead/Moderator. You're cool Shawn. It was my mistake not yours.

Awesome post. Re-activating to ask: Will any of these relays activate and work with LED light assemblies?

Never meant to create an issue. Just trying to help a guy with an electrical demon. Apologies

I wish you well brother. There is also an electrical forum under restoration on Steel Soldiers. Maybe you might ask there if anyone understands the HMMWV wiring and schematics and might help. First maybe check your brake light wires with a multimeter with and without someone pressing the...

Apparently PCB has been documented by another member to partially fail: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?157038-M998-new-glow-plugs-burnt-out-and-swollen-in-2-hours/page2

Survey says????? Hoping things work out for you and your rig. T

No great way to check a PCB unless you wanna open and look for burnt up bits. Hard to see sometimes when magic smoke gets released. [The TM's talk about a way to build a diagnostic box, but it seems like a huge undertaking for limited payout]. Best way is to make sure batteries are charged...
