I had the same problem. I checked EVERYTHING. I pulled my fuse box and sprayed it down I did EVERYTHING.....except check the continuity of the wires. I thought I had continuity by pulling on the wires. The key thing was the numb skulls who put on my civy trailer hitch chewed through two of...

Thanks everyone for the input. Walked through things from the back forward once again thanks to y'alls suggestions. S Starting with the bulbs forward....after checking heat at the fuse block of course. This time though, to make it easier I got a true light tester and started poking holes in...

Tedious but genius. So the question is....I used a simple bulb wire combo to test the sockets in the back. I actually tested at the rubber boot where the tail light harness plugs into a vehicle side harness. At that point, with my little bulb I could not get anything to light up buth using...

checked. Tight. Driver side with exposed wire but appears to be intact otherwise.

I have searched the forums and tired many things for similar issues but just today ran into something quite interesting with regards to my lights. Prior to today: My passenger blinker was a slow blink (original blinker switch went bad and replaced with what is comprable to flasher...

Is the system under vacuum or pressure? Sounds like it is under pressure which to me would suggest you have a leak in the tiny length of line that us under vacuum or the electric pump has such high flow that you are getting the Bernoulli principle working against you. In my humble experience...

Not been posting much here but have been lurking forever. Was hoping to make it up and get to officially get into the addiction

hmmm....CRAP. oh well I met some great people in the process. Would have been nice to not have to sit around in some small town waiting on a purple PT cruiser rental car to be delivered.

Post on the 2010 VIN thread and maybe carnac can help???

Interesting. I ran into a different prob. Wonder what the difference was. When I tried to use a 12 v to get home when in a pinch it was quite an adventure. Hooked it up like norm underneath. Batteries were disconnected except the dogbone in the middle. Then with key out of ignition, I...

You should get a click on and off when the key is on but car not running.

Your wiring is incorrect. If you hooked up a 12 v starter and it worked....something is not right. The 12 v starter should (?) have tried to turn over immediately if things were hooked up correctly. From my past experience, which is prettly much nil (with the exception of replacing a starter...

I bought a similar unit for my 1009. Good unit. The one I have is the unit with the radio. Reception stinks. It is not bad on the open road but in hilly philly I cannot pick up much on the radio. Does have a port that I can hook up a MP3 player through. Puts out enough sound through it but...

Your thought on the starter makes sense to me but not sure if it is correct. Someone much more learned than I can answer that. I think it is a relay under the dash rather than a solenoid technically. To deal with the relay search for "doghead modification". In there will be brief mention of...

Sounds like your starter is dead. Mine did the same thing and it turned out my bendix was dead. The starter would kick out but not turn....thus bad bendix. There is a solenoid on the starter. NO it is not the same as a 12 v starter. NO do not try to use a 12 v starter with a 24v system...

Drive it around till the U joint breaks, the axle goes flopping around under your truck and you are barely able to make it to the interstate exit.....that is what I did. No problem getting it out of the yolk.

That stinks man. when I got mine the sucker was listed as being on the truck for 48 hours. It was strange almost like the guys said ....."you know what, I think I dont want to go back to work today; I think I will go to the bar." Then it showed up. Strange. All I can say about my...

I had the same issue with my truck. Here is the deal I faced. The starter I tried to put on was 12v and it fit a chevy blazer....but was not the correct 24v starter. A lot of people thing it will simply spin faster. BUT it will not. I think I had the problem because, as I was told the...

Yeah heat is the big problem and thus my dual tank set up. When it gets to being all white outside things sludge up pretty bad. For some reason the idea of not cleaning my system out on standard fuel makes me nervous. I wish I had the ability to constantly use a block heater during the...

PS thanks for raining on my parade ;-)....but at least I still have a parade rather than it being burned up in a hot fireball that the firefighters wont put out because of tons of oil.
