I run the truck with the cab open and drain the air tanks to test the fan clutch it will engage when the air drains down and close the tanks and watch it disengage. Dosnt test the sender and solenoid unfortunately though.
I have the trans to cab harness for either control. It comes down out of the drivers side cab hump along the drivers side frame rail, a branch off goes to the throttle position sensor and then over the trans to the passenger side where it meets the pigtail that comes off the trans. In the cab...
Email me a list of all the parts you want. Will atpawnking dotcom. If you don't know what's missing then large clear pics of the area will help. Most of your pics are close ups you need to take 2 steps back.
That's engine oil fill circled. Trans fill and dipstick is a bit smaller. You need to check and see if the engine is good before you go crazy getting into the truck. I have all the parts you will need. That truck could rapidly become a money pit.
Hard to tell from your pics. Is the trans still against the engine or is there a gap? Are a few bolts still in? Before I get crazy into a truck I want to make sure the engine runs. You can jump the fuel solenoid and with 24v at the starter jump the solenoid and crank it. If the fuel lines are...
What transmission bolts? Just on the bottom or other bolts missing. Post large clear pics you can add in red arrows or something where the missing bolts are. Above the air box cable is probably for an accessory you don't need I wouldn't worry about that. I have the trans dipstick. Is the engine...
Check valve behind bumper gunked open. 2 of the 3 check valves under the drivers area had gunk in them. Brakes work as intended. Learning experience. And the cause of all these issues is:
Will's title service can get it reg in your name like the title services do. It wouldnt be cheap it would have to be done as a truck for non commercial use but still by phys weight.
See I knew there was a reason I posted this odd stuff that always seems to happen to me. I was looking into it I think one of the 3 check valves under the drivers seat has to do with the emergency air side. And some ps magazine reference to idiots like me plugging gladhands to stop leaks causing...
With the tank empty there's no air to release the springs so it's parked. So maybe by temporarily blocking off the fron gladhand I created my own problem. But the system shouldn't release the brakes with emergency air input. That didn't make sense. The check valve is there to protect air in the...
I replaced it off a parts truck but I know the parking brakes had worked on that truck. I opened up the original valve it did seem a bit stuck but freed up easily. I can swap that one back in tommorrow.
Yes the spring brakes are released regardless of dash valve position. Treadle valve functions as intended and there is no tm troubleshooting left for this.
