    LMTV Abs troubleshooting

    Yep, I've got to test the V=IR, but under load. This truck has me buying more and more tools. I'll have to see if my old oscilloscope can record with a starter trigger.

    LMTV Abs troubleshooting

    Checked resistance to all 4 modulators from the connectors at ABS, all right at 5.1-5.3 ohm so all in spec (4-9 ohm) Checked resistance to ground from both pins, both at 0.2, but need to check voltage under load still.

    LMTV Abs troubleshooting

    Not sure there actually is a "condition" just that the most voltage sag will be during cranking. It has 4 fresh batteries, all measuring well voltage wise. Truck cranks quickly. Obviously that's not an all-inclusive test of battery, grounds, etc. I'll look into this as well though.

    LMTV Abs troubleshooting

    Yeah I looked at that, but since it only popped up during cranking (low voltage condition) I wasn't giving it much trust. There was no memorized or active flag either. Considering I don't have any other things to test though, it's next on my list

    LMTV Abs troubleshooting

    Took it out and all speed sensors working fine. No codes except right after cranking the engine I got a fault code that then went away. I'm guessing just from the voltage drop, but maybe not? I did try engaging the ABS on some gravel but I was only going about 10 mph or so so maybe it's below...

    Interesting, didn't know they had any rubber isolation Looks like the weight may be supported along the length of the frame as well not just those four points

    To make diagnosing electrical issues much easier, I rotated some of the wiring TM pages and made them searchable for my specific GenIV trans/A1R combo.

    If anyone wants the seat plate, I had mine made though oshcut.com for $156 shipped, 3/16 plate a36. Attached are the cad files. This works for the transit seats, but you could use the bolt hole locations for a different plate.

    LMTV Abs troubleshooting

    It does say the light is on, it has been power cycled since since clearing codes. I haven't had the chance to check those readings while driving. I tried turning off the abs light in software but it stayed on. Looks like the lamp is controlled by a relay and for that light to turn off it needs...

    Finished the double seat. I cut a lot of the base bracket off to lower it as much as possible. It ties into the stock m8 holes and also the m6 holes used for the m16 mounts.I'm 6'4" and my head grazes the roof insulation(stock A1R insulation). Also picked up some square steel tube to lift the...

    LMTV Abs troubleshooting

    Well can talk to abs ECU, but abs light stays on entire time of the drive. After I checked what the codes were....nothing active and nothing logged. Seems...strange. Places to look next?

    They do not fold. I have no plans for a passthrough behind the seats so no folding needed. The width at the widest part of the cushions is 31". I couldn't ask for a better width. It sits right at the driver/passenger seats with no gap so I'm maximizing seat width for the kids.

    Wasn't sure if my ABS was working so was going through and cleaning everything, messing around with computer settings . Software would return values like it was talking to the abs ECU, which caused me not to consider the simple solutions, one of the circuit breakers for ABS was pulled. Seems to...

    It's a 20ft shipping container so pretty strong. We talked a bit about various options and for now we will all be in the cab. That may change in the future if we find out we want to spread out, but there is a lot involved in making them safe in the box with strong seating and restraints. One of...

    Kind of interesting the 6x6 doesn't have abs sensors in the intermediate axel.

    LMTV Abs troubleshooting

    Well I feel like a dumbo, one of the two ignition pins wasn't getting power due to a missing circuit breaker. Try the simple stuff first.

    LMTV Abs troubleshooting

    Still having lots of issues talking to my ABS. Inspect of the module itself and there was a lot of corrosion on it cleaned all the pins up and retried but still didn't work. Unplug the ABS entirely but still getting that j 1587 fault code. Also I'm showing a PGN 65226 from ECU, but connecting to...

    Looking for M1078A1 ABS troubleshooting guide

    I got 2 DVDs with mine, first had ems2, and multiple IETMs, the second disc had more IETMs, but no ICE or ds test set selector that I saw.

    Pulled seats and storage out of the cab, found out MWME put inch bolts in the seat locations...and punched through the cab metal from too long of a bolt in one spot. Hopefully the metric threads aren't messed up. Power washed the interior, threw a fan in to dry it out. Next step is installing...
