I have no fluid leaks tho…..the fluid is less then a year old as my fan failed last year.
It’s parked on clean concrete floor and no drips.
Possible a vane was stuck?
I’ll leave it for a week and try again maybe. I just found it odd how it came back. Lmao. Well maybe it’s actually par for the...
So revved it up and now it’s perfect. Shut down and totally normal on restart.
I suspect pump is probably going?
Did not check for fluid churning, but fluid, belts, pulley are indeed all good.
Had the Humvee sit over the winter. Mostly anyways. Had it out at Xmas and I’m once in Feb and a decent drive in March. No issues. Just started it and zero steering pressure or brake pressure.
Fluid is good level and condition,
Any quirks to these or did the pump just go bad?
Thanks guys.
Thank you! As I suspected,
I do not want a 200a. It’s too big, I use little amperage for my LED lights, then it’s the blower motor and fuel pump, gauges. I don’t think you could run a simpler system. 3 speed. No electrical add ons other than a license plate light which is LED. Plus less stress...
I’ve concluded there’s no adjustments. Seems like straight hook ups. I cleaned the contacts, but here’s my main issue……half way home it started working normally…..wtf.
it’s it’s a sign of the alt failing I’ll just order one.
Was putting that other disaster hmmwv back together today, and had driven mine over.
went to go home, turned on my lights, all LED, all proper and correct. As I went to drive they flickered rapidly and went out. So I stop and they came back. Idling the volt gauge was in green but any rpm above...
Yes he took photos when he got the truck so I could see the red cables location. I was called in when he failed to extract the Broken alt mount bolts and it needed a cylinder head.
Replaced the head and everything but the final steps are items I didn't take apart, and suspected incorrect parts.
I will try to get the data off the alternator. Thank you, I assume that the smaller cable will end up on the dual voltage regulator.
Sources for that part?
Good news on the trans light at least.
I have a lot of the TMs, but it doesnt necessarily answer questions when the wrong parts are...
I’m not worried about WTS Lamp or trans light until I sort out the alt.
They also send the truck missing the hydraulic lines for fan and the nose of the fan clutch is missing lol
I am finishing a job for a local guy, He bought this truck from a notoriously bad importer. It came off the trailer all messed up. Alt bracket broke off the head, and several other issues.
I’ve got it back ready to start. But his batteries were dead.
Anyways, my hmmwv is old, 60a alt, V belt ...
