    No rear marker lights power

    year and model? pushbutton or 3 lever lightswitch? So taillights, brake and turn but no rear markers? Hmmm do the reverse light work? All the rear lighting grounds thru TL 97 which is located I think on the drivers side frame to the rear of the axle under a 10Mm bolt. if the other rear...

    Bricked ?

    Marine as well. Have used self vulcanizing tape and scotchkote to create weatherproof electrical connections for decades. Only drawback it has is that it is difficult to wrap properly in tight locations...

    LMTV Frame twist

    Not utterly unimportant to everyone. height was pretty high up on my list also, which was why I converted the upper frame into the floor(mine is different than everyone else's too:)). If you take off your bed, stand on the frame, that is ~3/4" lower than where my finished floor will be. my...

    Bricked ?

    if using the bussbar extenders, I would probably slide a piece of rubber hose over nut and bolt and as much of the bussbar as I could just to remove any potential for them to come into contact with each other or anything else. no fuse-able links at this point if something contacts them or they...

    LMTV Frame twist

    "flexing will occur at the point of least resistance". Yes and no... What also determines this is where and how the force is applied. This can be an issue with the 3 and 4 point engineered subframes, as they concentrate all the force from the habitat mass into those 3 or 4 points. if not...

    Bricked ?

    Two batts are definitely a better match for the 100A alt, and more inline with typical automotive power system specs.

    Bricked ?

    The remote disconnect relays can fail(Especially the older model). I would simply bypass it, as it is not used for normal operations and is only controlled by the LBCD when it senses the alternator is overloaded(tries to save a very expensive alternator from a grossly oversized battery bank)...

    2003 1078 A1 derated ether start

    If the primer is working you should feel it moving fuel on a completely dry line in ~17-18 pumps. Here is how you test the primer and clean the bypass valve…

    M1078 LMTV will not crank

    Unless you are drenched in seawater or sweat, you are going to have difficulty hurting yourself with 12 or 24v:) rule of thumb, never complete a circuit with any part of your body When working on ANY circuit. One hand in your pocket, other hand only touching the Plastic handle of the...

    M1078 LMTV will not crank

    Ok, you have an A0. You need a couple specific things to come on/go click when the main switch is turned on. Oil idiot light, K11 and K24. I suspect they are because if they were not you would not be getting a click when you push the start button. if the click you hear when pushing the...

    FMTV drive shaft yoke puller

    Well you can probably make one fairly easily. heavy wall pipe slightly smaller diameter than the ujoint bearing holes in the yoke. nut and bolt combination where the nut can be inserted into the pipe(thread passage perpendicular to the pipe length, but cannot rotate in that orientation...

    Another CTIS troubleshooting thread. Power related

    On the back side of that connector, is there one or 2 wires crimped into the back of the pin 6 and 12 locations?. It could have been that the jumper was hardwired on the back side of the Plug and loops out into the harness and back. so production only has to make one type harness, then the...

    Another CTIS troubleshooting thread. Power related

    Oh, they changed that function from K52 on the A0 to K29 in PDM#1 on the A1R(sheet 20 and 21 in the diagram). For the most part the basic wiring is VERY similar from A0-A1-A1R with only a few exceptions, this is one of them:) I suspect somewhere you will find P913 under the pax dash, forward...

    Looking for M1078A1 ABS troubleshooting guide

    Dammit, get outta my head! I don't see an issue with him putting in the fuse but it will probably just get him an ABS light, and a more pressing need to get intimate with some software to figure it out...

    Extremely heavy throttle pedal on 1996 A0 1078 - A1 electronic pedal swappable?

    You pretty much gotta pull the steering wheel to lift out the dash, and even then it is not that easy:) If it returns cleanly from full pedal to idle pedal, it is probably not a lube issue. someone may have swapped out springs down at the governor...
