    Power not really off….. strange

    The capacitors in the LBCD next to the spare tire holding some charge. There's a note in the manual somewhere that when you do kill power with that switch, go in to the cab and turn the ignition on to drain the capacitors

    Cold start c7 issues

    Hmm seems like that pretty much always operates if the engine is below 158f. Guess ether trigger must be somewhere else. Wonder if it's hidden and not accessible.

    Cold start c7 issues

    It got down to about 30f today (yay snow?) and since I got the tail lights reconnected I took the truck for a drive (first real test with Eco hubs too). The truck didn't turn on the grid heater before startup (for the past month it has-40-50 deg). I tried starting and it cranked up better than...

    Doubt it, but maybe? The connection I have is all through the left knee connector. Not sure if he connector by the ABS is direct to it or if I even have an adapter for it.

    Educate me on talking to wabco ABS

    Trying multiple solutions, various computers with serial adapters and built in serial ports. Have the same returns from software. Everything else works perfectly, abs is the outlier. Tried following the instructions for changing between 1708 and 1939 (power cycle) and same results. Is abs...

    1708 and 1939, but those seem to be on even when the computer can't talk to it. I do have the exact same dpa3+, using on a 2007 model

    ECO Hubs Who needs 3:07 gears?

    I could, but there is no reason to remove the bolt. The clamp can be installed and removed with nut and screw in place, just loosened. Yeah I was very careful about the false start/cross thread not sure what happened on this one, the other 5 did fine. Everything else went together great...

    From fire truck to MTV

    Probably would, he seems like a really nice guy. Problem is I tend to get really focused on a project and don't want to pause progress. It's also hitting 25° here tomorrow by afternoon so I'm trying to complete it before then.

    ECO Hubs Who needs 3:07 gears?

    Had one of the clamps strip today :( oddly just a tiny sliver of thread came out, almost like too large of a tap drill used.

    From fire truck to MTV

    Was tightening one of the lock clamps on the Eco hubs and felt a snap. Threads stripped. Oddly no thread pieces present besides a very tiny sliver, almost like what happens with a too large a tap drill. Regardless, this will be my fix. Going to crush some of the threads so it can't come off if...
