    The ECV not only requires a new winch plate, the solenoids are on the opposite side of drum….its a pita to install on an ECV.

    4L80E error code 73 - trans light always on

    Y’all getting way to deep into the weeds here, any of the hmmwv TCM’s work on any of the TCM equipped trucks, when they retired out the old version and PCS filled the void, it’s a throw away part, no EPROM changes to change the shift points, that’s it…shift point changes were done because of the...

    4L80E error code 73 - trans light always on

    well, if that’s the case, I’d have purchased a 3spd truck as it’s mostly all mechanical, the A2’s on up need a higher level of maint depending on model and component failure, that equals parts availability. My EU customers prefer the older 3 speed trucks

    4L80E error code 73 - trans light always on

    find someone who has a known working TCM and swap it in, you very well haven’t fixed everything wrong in the unit you just repaired.

    4L80E error code 73 - trans light always on

    Trans lamp on while engine running is the TCM not seeing the engine running, replace the CPS, if that doesn’t do it? The TCM is bad. just had both these issues on separate trucks in the shop.

    Hmmwv 400 amp alternator conversion from 210 amp

    the 200amp bracket would need mods, you typically can convert from 400 to a 200amp easily, not the other way around. the front and rear mounting ears are the issue…there is a 3/4in difference, you need to trim off 3/4in of the rear mount where the the lomg bolt mounts through.

    M1114 and Forging Exhaust

    The turbo trucks don’t need the old style bracket in the fender, there is a reinforcement plate installed on the inner fender…still required to have the rubber isolators, but that’s it.

    M1165A1 TCM "J10 Ignition Interface" Wiring Dongle

    remove it and plug the wire into 29T…that was how power was applied when the ignition switch is in “Run” position. It powered the AFES.

    Did I use the wrong coolant?

    you don’t want Dex-cool, you want green 50/50 coolant, green is for cast iron blocks.
