    M1009 Wiring Issues

    Hey y'all. Really learning a lot here! I've been making headway with the CUCV project. Finishing the alternator rebuild was a big deal, anything electrical is very intimidating for me. :oops: Changed the oil, diff fluids, transmission fluid, transfer case fluid. The vehicle was use by a...

    Fuse Box

    I appreciate it but I was looking for a complete fuse box with the pins and such. I'm not the most electronically inclined individual. ;)

    Fuse Box

    When I recently purchased my first M1009, it came with a handful of electrical issues. I have been ironing them out, little by little. The fuse box was severely melted around the Main Light fuse and I am unable to get a connection there. Would anyone happen to know where I can get a replacement...

    FMV Title Help in Tx

    My trip to the Bexar County Tax office went less than productive. I bought a 86 M1009 CUCV from a Police Dept and I need to get it titled. I took the Form 130-U to the tax office and they got really confused. There was multiple calls to Austin and much stammering, stuttering and "I don't knows"...

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

    Fixed Alt. Thanks to the collective knowledge from the experienced professionals here and a few parts from CUCV Electric, I just rebuilt my alternator in my M1009 and now my GEN 2 light now illuminates! :) Thanks y'all! I'm all about the little victories!

    SS members what do you think ?

    That sounds like a great idea! Possibly a MV trail vehicle led by the Patriot Guard Riders. Functional and patriotic!

    Electrical Issues (alternators, headlights, etc.)

    Ok, gen 2 socket has a 168 bulb instead of the 194. That's a start. I'll keep up the diagnosis. Thanks y'all. Keep the good intel flowing. ;)

    Electrical Issues (alternators, headlights, etc.)

    Already found the thread about it and cleaned the fuse box contacts, inside and out and added some dielectric grease. Already found the thread about the instrument cluster and cleaned it up as well. Even though the filaments arent burnt, if y'all think new bulbs are the ticket, i'll do it. I'll...

    Electrical Issues (alternators, headlights, etc.)

    Gentlemen, I am quite new to MVs and even less adept at electrical issues. I have found several solutions here and am very appreciative. Here are a couple of problems I am having and I'd really appreciate your input. - First, neither GEN 1 or GEN 2 lights will light up. I've checked them and...
