Could be a bad water pump. Had that in a few. Dry rotted lines. Or fuel filter o rings not seated right. Did you completely drain the fuel tank? And put 10 gallons of fresh fuel in? Every one I have had, had some water in the fuel.
6n15t4 may be cross ref. And they are available. Surface mount work is not easy with a soldering iron. There are special rework stations used for that type of work. Too much heat will damage the transistor, board and other components near it. Pay the repair guy to fix and test it. Cost you less...
If its something you can order parts for I do have a good first gen truck front axle here. I believe the 3126 A1 trucks use the same axles as the first gen. Driveshafts are different though.

The trans control goes thru the cab hump on the drivers side. You can take the grill off and disconnect there. May need pliars to carefully turn to unlock the mil connector. Taking the steering wheel off makes working in the dash so much easier.
There are unused wires coming off the trans harness they are usually just cut and laying in the dash. You are going to need to ohm out each solenoid in the harness before you plug another controller in. Does it still smoke with the trans harness disconnected? This is the TX truck that had the...
There are places that repair that. Not cheap though. I have good parts on hand. You just have to be careful. On the older stuff bad harness or other issue can cause controller damage. If you look at the 2 plugs and follow the harness back a bit there will be some wires that are cut and just left...
Water leaks in around the lights above the windshield and drips onto the dash. They keypads are splash resistant but over time water gets in. I had one that would randomly put the truck in drive on its own so be careful.
Thanks. Keith said to measure and scribe marks on anything I am taking apart so I can make sure its all put back together right. I know a local guy who owns a drivetrain shop he does heavy equipment driveline rebuilding. Its more of a project than I want to get into myself. I do more of the...
I still cant believe you are getting in this thing and driving from alaska to tn. Can you get a transport or temp reg somewhere? You will need it at border crossings.
Did you ask him about the mode button? If the mode has to be on to drive in the trucks present condition that is normal. If it has to be continuously held to drive that is not normal.
Takes a pair of any batts with post top. Dosnt take much to start them. There is an onboard trickle charger with regular plug under the control panel. Completely drain the fuel tank and replace the fuel and oil filters. Napa 3316 is the fuel filter. Most of these have water in the fuel tank I...
