Welcome from Ohio, yeah as always….. nopics

Yeah, I really kind of expected a full write up with high definition photos, and detailed instructions on all of this. I’ve never really conducted multiple practice starter installation drills before. nopics

Thanks guys, for allowing us that could not go this year to live vicariously through those who did.:-D

Since I’m not going to make Haspin this year, I’ll try to get off work for this. Any ideas on the participation at this?

Mud, why were you in my driveway?:grd:

Unplug and remove the diode plug. With a digital multimeter, set it to the diode function. It usually has a schematic diagram of a diode on it. Connect the red (positive) lead of the meter to the side of the diode that has a band, and the black to the other end, you should get a reading, it...

WOW.....:not worthy:

I working on a write-up I’m going to call “one of everything” because everything I troubleshoot has something wrong with it….anyhow, one of the 27,000 things I found was this… the passenger alternator wires looked normal like in the first photo, but when I pulled them off to clean them, …wow...

This is great thread, watkinssr, you are doing great, It gets old sometimes to see people on here that are not qualified to hold a screwdriver getting in way over their heads. You are very clear and concise, and have excellent communication skills, (great asset in a thread)…. I lurked on here...

Check the splices where the turn signals in front connect to the marker lights. Mine had been replaced in the past, and this connection just fell apart when I touched it. And as always…. All of the problems could be in the instrument cluster circuit film, and bulb sockets.

Batteries. Just another thought, bad, low, worn out batteries will create a huge drag on the alternators as they try to quickly charge on first startup. Sometimes making the belts squeal. But then they quiet down as the charge equalizes.

Ok… thanks ….. Still working out the details at work, and getting the truck road ready, but as it gets a little closer, I’ll holler. :o

convoy? Ok.... looking very promising for us… 2 people, 1 OH8... Saw some mention of convoy from say Columbus area Thursday or Friday is that still a go? *gathering up disassembled truck from the driveway and throwing it back together*

Yup Yeah, that’s the one he means…some of them are on the parking brake bracket and some are on the bulkhead like yours…..following this closely as I have some similar problems, and still haven’t killed them all yet..aua

Thanks Crash Thanks Crash, yeah the troop seats are all there. The other thing I was trying to show was the lack of rust everywhere I normally see rust on these things, not the seat. But yeah its pretty good, no tears or anything new dash pad, and very professionally done cigarette...
