If I remember right the power goes to the horn then up the wire to the button. When you push the button all you are doing is grounding the circuit to complete it, then it honks. If the wire makes contact anywhere along the path it is the same as pushing the button.

Maybe you can talk them in to just checking the parking brake shoes- they are exposed and easy. Also check the license plate light, I can't for the life of me remember if I removed the masking tape! It works though.

Thanks for the beautiful write up. Your DMV is better than ours is, 30 minutes! Here is a thread on the painting of your truck: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/paint-bodywork/92438-just-rolled-out-m35a3-383-a.html My wife commented several times how I seemed to be "down" after the truck left...

There is only one downside to 395s on an A3. It makes climbing on the tailgate a few inches harder.

Thanks guys, I appreciate ya!

Thanks! I appreciate that. :-D

Took 3.5 gallons of Rapco. New top, other stuff. Had a great time but I am very glad it is done. :beer:

I made a slide hammer from plumbing pieces parts a few years ago. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/37104-hillbilly-slide-hammer-seal-removal.html It worked well. In the future I plan to remove both sides for this as it is easier.

Oh and welcome back! Now get to work... :driver:

One is Shake Rattle and Roll, other is Loud and Proud,

Sounds like it is not a good deal to me. I would keep looking. I bought my working 003 for less than half that on a trailer.

I will get a picture next week- the truck is at work and I am not! :beer:

Let's see. WMD means Weapon of Mass Destruction. Hope that helps!

Riddle is right. The sensor is real easy to remove and check- if you have the engine and transmission lying on the garage floor. If not it is kind of tough. You can get to it by going over the driver's fender. You will see the two wires going to the bell housing. Or, you can remove some of...

Jay is right, if you are getting water into your tanks on a M35A3 your air dryer needs servicing bad.

I know all that. Bigflew posted above: To which I think Wreckerman replied: That is what I was referring to. Bigflew added the M35A3 element. That is all. fat lady sings

I just "cured" my problem. It started with occasional low air warnings, finally got worse till it took forever to fill the tanks. I could not turn the wheel without the buzzer going off. Did the air tool oil fix, but that did not work. Got under it and started tracing air lines and found a...

I think Wreckerman was referring to bigflew who said he planned to ditch the spare on his A3. That would leave bigflew walking it ye had a flat.

Not sure what you mean that it is charging. Anyway, the A3 tach gets 24 volts from the system, has two wires to the sender in the bell housing and that is it. Sometimes the sender gets a little loose and does not receive the signals (one pulse per tooth on the flywheel) and sometimes it is a...

I read the title and thought you were too high to work on the truck. My bad. Is it slipping or is the engine being pulled down to a stall? Good luck on it.
