    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    Know anyone with a CUCV? Unless they switched it, their keys will work as a template for a spare.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    Unplug the wire to the radio noise suppressor on the side of the truck and plug it directly into the wiper motor. It's useless, and has been known to slow down your wiper motor under certain circumstances. Just another little nook and cranny CUCV thing.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    Check GP's, do bypass and good to go. Glad you are on the road. You're right there, might as well bypass the wiper suppressor as well if you haven't already.

    factory tach install will it work?

    Do a search here for tiny tach and it might lead you to some help. I've always been curious about my rpm's, not like it would change my driving, but still.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    It is constant hot but the relay only gets activated by the card or if you ground the blue wire from the card manually. No switch needed.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    I guess that is what is happening. When I did the bypass, I removed the 24v feed to the resistor completely.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    I understand the procedure and the reasons for doing so having just done it myself this week while putting new GP's in. What I don't understand is why his resistor is smoking if he bypassed it?

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    If you bypassed the resistor, then how is it receiving power?

    Smoke after glowplug swap

    Just for folks searching in the future, it's called the "BATTERY BOOSTER RESISTOR" in the intermediate parts TM if you are looking for it (figure 47).

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    Finally got around to the GP resistor bypass. Also changed all the spade connectors and put in 8 new AC 60g's. She hasn't been able to start in a week, even plugged in. Only one was pretty swollen, but was able to gently pry it out without snapping the tip. Of course it was the passenger...

    Gen 2 lamp questions

    I like to swap them every 6 months or so, or by mileage, whatever occurs less. Keeps them even.

    CUCV in the dark

    I had the same problem and switched to a circuit breaker as well. Still happens. Looking to do the headlight rewire in the near future. I wish the thread was updated with the wiring diagram, but it's locked.

    Left Toolbar Permanent Collapse?

    Is it possible to permanently collapse the lh toolbar (sponsors, posts, wiki)? I can click the arrow and it will do so, but it's only a single occasion. Each click on a post or forum page resets it. Thanks.
