Not quite sure from the photos, but it looks like the purple wire might be where the red one goes, and the red one might be where the purple one goes. Or the other way around. I could be wrong.
For future readers, when doing this mod, make sure that you solder the wire ends to the terminal and...
I noticed this the day I posted to it. I wondered why DH never fixed it. I assumed that it must be some inside joke that I was not privy to, and that in time would reveal itself.
I have never questioned the validity of the DH relay mod, but now that I know that it is actually in print in a...

Sorry, Chris made me do it...:D:gimp2:
OK, the solution to this one was so far out there that I really hesitate to post it, but it goes to show that anything could happen.
The problem was in the alternator. The little tab that locks the plug in place was broken off and had fallen into the alternator and found itself wedged in the...
Thanks Dozer.
I spend about 20 hours a week either attempting to procure, or assisting in the design and manufacture of parts we want to make available.
In the early days of retail, there was a clear distinction between China junk and “Made in USA” . Later, that line got a little blurred. As...

Fantastic Job!:beer:

One other thing he is doing this afternoon, is grounding the #1 wire test.
According to my FEFI method (thanks Eric), my troubleshooting techniques usually involves a jumper wire or swapping something. So here goes this one.
For the GEN1 exciter circuit (brown wire only...not the red wire)...
Great visual on the firewall connector Joe! That will be a lot of help for a lot of people.
He does have battery voltage on the big red wire (1 RED-2N)
His #2 on the 2 pin is good, but nothing on the #1 (1 BRN-25). Nothing else in that circuit that I know of except that firewall connector...
I clearly don’t have much of a problem with glow plug controllers, and for that matter, resistors, but I really am not a diesel guy, so I was thinking of performing this bypass to my M1008, I do have a lot of Amish friends around here. So does anyone out there have clear instructions for the 6.2...
Thanks Tim, but I’m not sure.
So I took the 1008 out the other day, and as I got on the road, I noticed that she was pulling to the right a little bit.
Now, instead of thinking like a normal guy, and assuming that I need to check the air in the tires, I had visions of bad bearings and frozen...
As the lights were meant to be seen mainly from behind, you are talking about mounting them higher than the box ?
I would be afraid that it would be really cutting it close on those low underpasses.
