    1097R1 with a 200A gen intermiten charging issue

    Not all "boxes" have contactor (solenoid) inside. Some are full of fortune cookie relays and chop stick parts. All of this in the American Military HumV. What else could go wrong? CAMO

    200A shipping damage, how bad is it?

    Completely and totally unacceptable. Vendor should know better with such a heavy, somewhat odd shape and expensive item. New is NEW, not a parts unit. Pictures and paper work and they eat it big time. $$$ Amazon... keep it and we will send you a new one. LOL IS this where the term "Drop...

    Adding the light is a bright idea. Real question is DO you really want an old computer going wonkie controlling your glow plugs and ability to start and understand the goings on? I know a guy that does, CAMO

    Humvee M1152 ac problem

    My guess is a short circuit in the system or a weak breaker. The guage surge ??? more likely a dip in voltage, is my 2nd guess. The click could be the self-resting breaker behind the dash. All guessed out. Saving the third one for after the commercial, CAMO 📺

    Glow Plug Replacement

    Trying to get an air hammer to line up with a glow plug in a HumV... Not going to happen IMO. :hammer: What I have been reading lately... Jack hammer the whole engine out. :beer: Knock yourself out, CAMO (not personally directed, guess it's worth a try?)

    The same glow plug constantly roasting mystery..

    Here's the easy story book on the above pages. Might be a bit easier on the eyes 👀 has some electrical in it too. https://gear-report.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/HMMWV%20A1%20Troubleshooting.pdf This thread is a doozie. I am waiting for the boogieman 👻with a little hammer :hammer:to jump...

    Highway Cruising Speed

    The days when I had the M37, I drove with what was coming up in the rear view mirror. Never had to worry out the windshield. LOL Everyone gets a brake check. 🛑 Hurry up the giddy up, CAMO

    Installing Antenna tip

    I have seen the plastic tear drop tips on fiberglass and steel all wrapped in tape to keep them on and last longer. I get they look cool, nice and shinny... till it gets sun baked or wracked to pieces. Best to have the right tip for the whip size too. Military has tips, all others balls, CAMO

    Installing Antenna tip

    Tip of the day, on the antenna tip... follow down the yellow brick road to page 30 and try not to get lost. http://psmag.radionerds.com/images/9/90/PS_Magazine_Issue_561_August_1999.pdf Wizard of radio, CAMO

    Wait light not coming on - but starts (2006 M1097R1)

    That yellow box looks just like the Camoteksystems control box tester. Or could it be a submarine? CAMO
