If the rim O-ring is bad the tire will not hold air even with all the CTIS ports/lines plugged.

When I picked up my M936A2 at the GL yard at Ft Carson it would prime with the push button on the lift pump fine, start right up and run good for a few minutes then die. It was obvious it was sucking air from somewhere. Did this many time and the truck was towed off base for further...

Doing what we set out to do originally. Move it. http://youtu.be/kQcRk6K4sOQ

This is the one I wanted. Inverted Fairmont. http://youtu.be/Ai3qvR_i-6I

Shoot same one as before. Delete if possible.

Moved a derelict Ford Fairmont for a neighbor but first had to demonstrate what the wrecker can do. Sunday afternoon entertainment. More videos will follow. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eqQCgqU62v0&feature=youtu.be

That is exactly what it was. Post #11

Red arrow indicates where the air was leaking from. Sprayed soapy water around that hole and there were bubbles everywhere.

Actually found a simpler way. One or two rubber bands around the top thread on the bottle. One worked well for me.

My top would not tighten up at all and just sat there loosely attached. Leaked all over the place when it was more than half full. I wrapped a 1 inch wide piece of tire tube around the threads at the top of the bottle and that tightened everything up nicely. The top stays on and seals fine...

Another location for a leak. I had a flashing hwy light followed after a time by all 5 lights on steady. I knew the right most rear tire was going down. It was leaking down fairly quickly. Soapy water sprayed around the opening in the rim where the valve stem goes through resulted in...

Are you sure the leaking tire's rim O-ring is not bad? I had one tire that constantly lost air on my M936A2 and the problem was the O-ring between the rim halves. CTIS worked perfectly perfectly after that was repaired.

The Military Vehicles Collectors of Colorado rolled an impressive array of big iron rigs in the 2014 Commerce City Parade just north east of Denver. It is toted as one of the longest parade routes in the country. Almost 2 and a half miles long. Here are some pictures and a Youtube video...

EGT and boost gauge tap points. Where are you guys running those gauges from? Any easy ports to unplug and tap in to? I have been checking all pages of this post and maybe missed the one addressing this question. Thanks

I went out and took some pictures. First picture no power on the truck. Second powered up, light switch off. Third powered up, light switch on. The only backlighting I have is for the shifter selection. With power on the CTIS mode lights (hwy, sand, etc) are always lit, light switch on or off.

On mine the red dot light in the push button area comes on on with mode you select light switch on or off. As soon as power is applied via the master switch, the red dot lights come on. Backlights come on with light switch.

I did not adjust the wet tank pressure specifically. All I did is bring the trucks primary air pressure up from just under 120 psi to just under 130 psi at the air governor inside the engine bay on the firewall. The new style governors adjust counterclockwise to increase pressure. They are...

1 Patriot-of-many, make sure you have min 23 volts going to the ECM. With no lights coming on I would check that. There may be a fuse in the power circuit to the ECM box. I recall one of the CTIS wiring diagrams show a fuse. Check the trouble shooting procedures in the TM I attached above...
