By upstream do you mean start with the CB70 and work my way to the power switch troubleshooting?? The core problem seems to be master power switch and subsequently power to the gauges and the wtec3.
Thank you very much for the guidance.
So the truck starts if you manually engage the K1 starter relay. The main power switch does not work. Plan on checking CB70 and the switch pins 5 and 10 for continuity on the switch and going from there. When you flip the master power switch nothing seems to happen. The trans selector has a...
My EUC has been submitted to the Trade Security Controls. 8-12 weeks wait time. Since the truck is confirmed to crank but not start I figured first check for fuel contamination. Then pull the return line and see if fuel comes out while cranking. If yes start checking electrical, batts...
That’s what I was thinking as far as “if cranks trans circuit is happy”. It would not crank if it did not see neutral at least. Thanks for the heads up towards START DISABLE. The
Nice. That’s what I was thinking. If the truck is not seeing neutral etc. then crank would be disabled. The...
I have been reading the TM about Engine Cranks but no start situations. It’s a challenge for me to get a definitive grip on the information.
Will a bad trans ecu cause a engine cranks but not start situation?
My truck is a 1998 m1078
Does this photo of the engine show mechanical injection or hydraulic?
Does mechanical injection have an ecm? I thought I read somewhere that mechanical injection has NO ecm?
man if an ecm from your future parts truck worked that would be nice. I’m still awaiting EUC clearance.
The $750 seems strange, if it’s not what it is at time of auction when you go to pick it up that seems like bs.
Oh man, that is awfully kind of you sir. I may take you up on that pending...
So, I got some troubling news. The pictures/ original inspection does not match the condition of the truck. A more current inspection than what was shown at the tiMe of auction has bad ecm written on the grill and the pcm has been molested. The ironclad assurance dispute has a deductible of...
Dang, Gongho did they give any explanation for the 11 month wait? In2fords said his took a couple months from his Jan. 2020 purchase from Pearl Harbor, he already got his truck home. Am I able to get into Pasha easier to troubleshoot the no start issue? I’d like to have my truck running for the...
That’s a good idea. Can you typically smell diesel and tell if it’s bad? Maybe inspect inside the tank with a flashlight and look for water, sediment, cloudiness? Not sure if you can tell by looking or smelling.
I can’t find any info on fuel gelling in these trucks. Just for low temperatures but not Hawai’i. Maybe old fuel could be a problem? Has anyone had any experience with old fuel? The truck has some black crayon writing on the hood that says 2018. Is fuel that old possibly going to pose problem?
I was thinking that if you do go out there it would be nice to have some good batteries to try and start the truck, no, do not leave out there. I agree that stuff probably disappears out there.
It sounds suspect that you could start your truck one month and then the next it doesn’t start, the...
Oh man that would be awesome. Keep me posted on when you are going out there. I am going to check with interstate batteries about purchasing used batteries. Maybe on your way you could scoop those up (I’ll pay by credit card). I’d be happy to pay you. Especially since if I fly over I gotta...
