I found the problem. The power in terminal on the flasher (X?) either has a cold solder joint or there is some corrosion in the contacts. Hold the terminal one way & everything works, let go, and nothing. Is the Truck-Lite 263 a compatible flasher for these trucks? Dt

Yes.

I replaced the turn signal switch, it is the same model but the wire colors are different. I pulled the covers of the new and old switch and matched wire locations so I'm sure it is wired right. I spliced the wires into the old harness before the Molex connector. I might bypass the connector...

I am having a problem troubleshooting the turn signals on our fire depts. M915. I have looked at the TMs but I do not understand them. It had an intermittent problem with the left turn signal, no neither side works. The light on the turn signal switch flashes but that is it. I know when they...

Pic 1. The current (slow) progress of turning it into a fire truck. Pic 2. The first before pic I remembered to take. Dt

That's the same setup we(fire dept.) have. No pics yet until it gets painted. Dt

That's what we are doing right now. M915(A1?) with a M967 trailer. We are replacing the pump and valves off the trailer with a smaller/simpler pump. We are about ready to paint them both. Dt

Not yet. It's an 1992 International 9400 6x6. Dt

Does anyone know anything about a 1A177 dump truck? From the Seabees? Dt

Where can I find the TM's for a M967 trailer. Or at least info on the brakes on these trailers or one simular? Dt

Welcome from Yazoo County. Dt

I forgot to update. The valve on the frame was the problem. The shop also found out that the rear axles brakes were inop. It took them a while to find a replacement valve that would work but they finally did. Dt

The trailer brakes work fine. I tried swapping them to see but no luck. I ended up running a line from one of the tanks straight to the trailer to get it rolling and eased the truck down the road in 2nd to limp it back to the fire station. Dt

I finally got it to move. The park brake is working backwards. I had to leave the truck park brake on, and supply the trailer with air to unlock it to drive it. When you take the parking brake off the truck(by pushing the valve in) it sets the brakes and the brake lights come on. Dt

The yoke broke. I meant the front drive axle. Sorry. Dt
