Okay I spoke with Lt. Inspector Lowe today. He told me he had to tap his LtCol for guidance. What I was told is that there are NO inspection stations in Franklin, Wake or Raleigh area in general that can inspect a HMMWV. I was told that all of those counties use the official DMV emissions...

Yeah, definitely let me know I live in Franklin as well. I'm in between Bunn and the airport, down the road from Floyds grocery. Where are you at?

The inspection station I was working with said they did that and it didn't work. I went up there today, it's was a cluster. I'm reasonably assured that they just giving me the run around.

I just got off the phone, I was told he won't do that because it would flag his shop by the dmv. I have to wait, at this point, until Thursday when Sgt. Love is back in his office to find out the correct way to do it.

Hello fellow HMMWV owners of North Carolina. How in the world do you get these trucks inspected. Iv called ten DMV numbers, three inspection stations and talked to a dozen people. Nobody can answer this one question, how do you get past the DMV computer system? The system requires a 17 digit...

It most likely will, truthfully the truck probably already has a code 37 in storage. The override switch is just there for when the switch fails, which it will. So I can just flip it to tell the TCM the "brakes are on" in which case the truck will just drive around with no lock up like it has...

The manual override would be normally closed in line with the lead to the TCM. The relay will do the switching. In the event of a switch failure, leading to a hung up torque converter. I flip the switch, causing the TCM to see an open circuit, forcing it to let go of lock up. As far as the TCM...

Take the nut, screw and spacer off the switch arms. Use a file, die grinder, what ever you have available and slot the holes counter opposed to each other. That way the the arms can sit out of alignment of each other and use the hardware to clamp it down. That way, with some fine adjustment at...

It takes basically no pressure to stop my 1097. The first time I drove it, I locked up the tires. I suppose Iv just gotten used to driving my Ford for so long. As it sits I can't have both lights and torque converter unlock with a stock switch. I'm toying with an idea. To use the old A1 single...

I'm having bit of an issue adjusting my dual brake switch. I'm wondering if anyone else has come across this. I'm sure as everyone is aware, the two switches are a normally open brake light switch and a normally closed torque converter unlock switch. I have two switches a AM General and a...

Sorry, I didn't see you post. If your cliam is correct then it could be my valve. Truthfully im considering going to a viscous clutch as well.

Yeah, I know, I just wanted to try and catch the truck doing it while I was under the hood. Which of course, it didnt want to any more. Besides, I pulled into an apartment complex and suddenly all the young woman decided to walk their dogs at the same time. So that's cool. But any ways, iv...

I shall try this, tomorrow. Thank you.

Oh no no my friend, I know that sound. I'm a chronic gauge watcher. So the fan cutting on is never a surprise. What it does is, attempt to engage the fan, which it does but only for a moment. Fan turns on then off again. Or it will do a half hearted attempt. I.E. the annoying hissing stops but...

I did go through the wires this past weekend. I found that switch wire 458A was not fully seated. Fixed that, then started through the -10 and 20-1 for everything related to cooling. The TM wanted me to bring the truck up to operating temperature to test resistance of the switch. In that case...
