    Connector to HMMWV 200 amp umbilical !!NOT slave cable plug!!

    Just installed my EOD shelter….I’m thinking it’s easier to just run another slave receptacle behind the battery box and install and slave connector to plug into the BEOD shelter…they chopped off the OEM plug, never could figure this out because it’s not hard wired.

    14V alternator harness..

    Yes, true, but for this exercise in a hmmwv, there is no AC output to utilize off a 200/400 amp unit. I looked in the CE Niehoff book and see AC going to no where…I only see where they refer to AC in testing from the cannon plug. Test phase signal into regulator (AC). Set meter to diode tester...

    M1151A1 engine issues...among other things

    replace with a straight pipe, new Cat, hog it out, clean it…its the owners decision as it’s a federal government violation to remove or modify smog devices for road vehicle.

    very common, I did 2 trucks in one week not to long ago, but you need to pull it all out and asses from there, you have a 75% or better chance that the bolts are Finger loose and just need to be hit with some heat.

    Smart box question

    Any other box other than an S3 is garbage, the yellow label Nartrons are notorious for stuck GP timers, if that light is on? You are getting voltage to the GP’s…and that’s not good. You didn’t state what model truck you have… edit: TSU’s are backwards compatible, the sign of a bad TSU is fast...

    Transmission or reducer issue in 1152A1

    well, it shouldn’t have been empty of fluids from the “seller”, the military drains the fluids as part of the shipping process, one would hope before anyone started the truck and drove it, they would have checked ALL fluid levels prior to any starting and driving. i just had a truck into the...
