    M1008 voltmeter

    My meter quit working and I replaced it with an ISSPRO gauge. I like this better than the military version as it is 24v and has number to show what your running instead of just red, yellow, and green. This is a direct replacement used my factory light looks better works better. I think this is a...

    CUCV m1008 volt meter problems

    I just replaced my voltmeter, did you clean the electrical connector clip. I had to clean mine it had corrosion not making good contact it's the black one where your power and ground for meter connect to harness. I say clean it and put some electric grease on it can't hurt.

    Doghead mod can I use this part

    Ok just finished mod truck starts no fire sparks or explosions. I found out I had no relay I had the army mod just a jumper between purple and purple white wire no relay no stuck relay. I remember my old motor Sgt. doing this in things to get from point a to b but never meant to be a perm fix.

    Doghead mod can I use this part

    That's what I have prime line 701829 made by same company as the other part that Doghead calls for, the only difference I found was added mounting option when you look up parts they say same thing I just wasn't sure. I'm also going to cap the stud ends with some rubber vacuum line ends along...

    Poll - Who has done the Doghead Relay Conversion

    Went to my closest NAPA all they had was part # 701829 said was same part just had universal mounting is this right. I got it anyway was cheap enough part. The package only says 2 post side or base mount 1/4 or 5/16 post. I'm asking to see if this will work before I start cutting wire.

    Voltmeter has me stumped

    Voltmeter has me stumped

    I got the 300 ohm resistor from mouser. I do disconnect batteries learned that one the hard way with a ford. Would a bad relay show it to over charge I thought if it went bad it would kill it also. I know someone will say put a meter to it my skill level with electric not there. I fix...

    M1009 popping the main light fuse

    I pulled all my lights cleaned and checked bulbs and grounds. I didn't find any bad wires at the corners any other places to look? I have a new headlight switch should I change it out could it cause the fuse to blow? I just don't know how to find the short.
