Fuse #12 is the 24 volt fuse for the voltmeter.

It is the black 3 terminal component that is affixed to the board with the rivet. It's next to the index slot on the card edge connector.

The new cards are available thru Hill Billy Wizard. The transistor in question is the part that is riveted to the board. Looks like that board was made around Nov 1985

I believe the card needs replaced or repaired. The card is not sending the ground command to the relay.

It will show continuity to ground for the duration of the Wait period and it may stay on for a little while longer. The length of time it stays on is determined by several factors, mainly engine temperature. Your procedure is correct for testing the ground command from the GP card. New cards...

Sounds like you lost the transistor that provides the ground command to the GP relay. Disconnect the light Blue wire from the GP relay. When the card is functioning properly, this wire will pull to ground. Check to see if that is occurring during the Wait light period with an ohm meter.

Moved to the CUCV forum.

Thank you for the update.

Sounds like the GP system is working properly. The glow plugs will stay on for up to 45 seconds after the wait light goes out. This "after glow" time depends on how cold the engine temperature sensor is. The GP system will keep the plugs supplied with power for a short period of time even after...

Ok Men, Let's see if we can stay on topic here. We have had enough distractions. Thanks.

This thread is about the camper build. It is not about CDL requirements and commercial trucks. The 5 ton food truck comments should be addressed in the existing thread about the food truck. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?186438-M927-as-a-Food-Truck-Looking-for-advice

Ken, If you need parts please post in the Classified section under Parts Wanted. The LED dash light question has come up many times here and there are numerous threads that can be found on that topic.

Ohhh yes, the one looks like the old "crimp it with a hammer" trick.

The Tar Heel antennas are good for HF. I have a couple of them. Remote tune-able from the radio or a separate switch.

I chase some CW DX on 30 meters from time to time. Now Field Day, that's a very serious event for our group.

I was sweeping the 26-55 MHz region. It does not do so well in the 11 meter band but does do well in the 6 meter band. Its a MX6707 base that has a switch on the bottom to change frequency ranges. So the CB band is not so good but the 52 MHz region looks good for FM simplex work.

Installed and sweep tested antenna system.

Unfortunately I will not be going to the Redball meet this weekend. Put an ohm meter on it and see what the reading is. Then see what the ohm meter reads by touching the leads together, subtract that amount from the resistor reading. The difference will be the value of the resistor pack. It...

John, The resistor pack consists of two .28 ohm resistors in parallel, so it should read .14 ohms of resistance.

They were just playing "follow the leader"
