    Headlight / Blackout Light switches

    Ouch... I have a printout of all the diagrams and I do know how to read them. Just a simple question. I am new to these trucks and have tons of electrical problems to begin with and just wanted advice from someone who had done it before. Before I messed something else up.

    Headlight / Blackout Light switches

    Does anyone have a procedure for removing the blackout light and service light switches and just having the headlights come on with the main switch like civilian trucks. The service light switch is kinda mangled and doesn't stay on and instead of replacing it just would rather take them out and...

    Fuel Filter / Water seperator

    The previous owner of my M1009 really must not have cared much for it or was a real cheapskate. The filter assembly was bypassed and a .99 cent filter put in its place. Question is which tube on the side is in and which one is out? Already know how to prime it just wanted to put a new filter...

    M1009 Electrical issues

    Lol No I realize that the gp card has nothing to do with charging. I was only referring to the state of the wiring harness and it seemed that the only wires that were cut were from the gp controller. Totally separate subject sorry for the confusion. I have gone through all the TM's wiring...

    M1009 Electrical issues

    Hello i am new here and have some questions about a recently purchased (and BASTARDIZED) M1009. I purchased the M1009 off my neighbor for a great price as it was not running. It was already converted to 12 volts i think by a rabid beaver. I took out the resistor bank and put 12 volt to the...
