    M1088a1 disconnect switch relay problem

    Following your directions, K11 pin 30 measures 22.6v without a load. Pushing the start button has no effect, does not change the reading.

    HET M1070 Barely Moves, No Guts

    I observed the shifter cable at the transfer case while someone was cycle the hand lever and it was obvious that the cable was not shifting the transfer case. The cable looks brand new, maybe just needs adjustment. I ended up disconnecting the cable from the transfer case and engaged high gear...

    HET M1070 Barely Moves, No Guts

    Replaced the primary filter/separator with OEM today. A few dozen cycles with the hand pump and she started right up. Went for a test drive and no change in performance. During the drive, I shifted the transfer case to High, Low and Neutral and the truck continued to drive as it has been...

    HET M1070 Barely Moves, No Guts

    I may have found a contributing factor. I obtained a Napa filter/water separator using a filter cross reference guide, which was not at all accurate. The replacement installed just fine, but I now see the open end is slightly wider and the gasket is not making a full seal. That explains why my...

    HET M1070 Barely Moves, No Guts

    Sounds good. I have an extra fuel tank cap somewhere that can be drilled and tapped. The pre-fill filters comment was meant in the past tense, done at the time they were changed. I always pre-fill the fluid filters when able. Going to be an interesting Sunday. Will start at 3psi for 30 mins...

    HET M1070 Barely Moves, No Guts

    I pre-filled the filters and it ran for a short while then cut out. Today I disconnected a couple fuel lines located after the secondary filter and did a couple dozen pumps on the primer. No fuel reached the secondary but a while lot was forced out of the top seal for the primary filter/water...

    HET Undercarriage Missing Parts?

    A local shop replaced the transmission on my 1070. Please take a look at the photos and let me know what you think. It appears a plug is missing from the flywheel housing and possibly a crossmember was not reinstalled. Are these critical components? How much hell should I raise?

    HET M1070 Barely Moves, No Guts

    Changed the primary and secondary fuel filter. I’m having trouble getting it primed. I used then hand pump above the left side tank to the point where diesel seeped from the water separator. Also filled both filters with diesel before installation. How do I prime the fuel system? I can’t find...

    HET M1070 Barely Moves, No Guts

    Starts just fine. On the open road with the pedal to the floor, the tach pegs at 1500 RPM, about 15 MPH (speedometer not working), barely moves down the road. It struggled to get over the small hump that railroad track straddles. I thought that it's stuck in low gear. The transfer case shifts...

    MTVR key-locking outside door handles installation:

    I double-checked my old invoice to be sure and it looks like they did not come with a set of keys. I either went to my local trucker shop (Empire, Rush, etc.) or eBay and bought only the key lock cylinders with a latching set of keys and changed them out.

    M1088a1 disconnect switch relay problem

    It started out as something else. After replacing the LBCD the “clicking” issue went away. I also discovered the TCU was bad and changed that. Now everything powers up as normal but no response from the start button. I mentioned the generator in case that might be a factor.

    M1088a1 disconnect switch relay problem

    Transmission controller light up as it should. Circuit breaker also tests fine. FYI, I can start the truck by jumping the auxiliary relay on the frame, but not with the start button. I’m watching the generator now. It flashed alternating amber for several minutes, now is alternating with green...

    M1088a1 disconnect switch relay problem

    K11 on this PDP is the ALT EXCITE relay. Pin 30 shows 24v but for some reason it will not supply power to 87. I jumped pin 30 to 87 and 87a and still no power to Alt Excite.

    M1088a1 disconnect switch relay problem

    I have power to the TCU, and power to K26, but nothing at K11. Where do I go from here?

    M1088a1 disconnect switch relay problem

    I swapped the PDP with a known good unit and still no start. I did notice K11 does not light up with the ignition on.
