I just replaced the "flexible" circuit board on the back of the cluster a month or so ago with a brand new one. Cleaned the main plug and everything, and it was working fine at that time. And this time I plugged and unplugged it several times, making sure it was fully seated. I don't know...

well my temp light nor my low coolant light come one when I turn the key to the "on" position, nor after I start the truck. They worked perfectly after I replaced the sensors a couple months ago. Have no idea what happened. All I did was pull the cluster out to push the speedometer cable fully...

temp light doesn't come on whether it is grounded or not. so I don't know if it's working either. thing is I just replaced both of these sensors a couple months ago and they were working fine

well at least my temp light might work. low coolant isn't though, even if I unplug from sensor which would leave an open circuit it should turn on light. but nothing. oh well

screw it, I'm putting it back together, i have too much other work to keep fooling with this. need truck tomorrow. I always keep check on fluids anyway, have a small antifreeze leak that i cant locate thus far. going to try some uv dye and see.. have no way to know if temp light works, if she...

changed the leds back to regular 194 bulbs, still nothing would have had this done in 30 to 45 min. but no, something else had to quit working for no apparent reason.....

jusrlt noticed when I flip key off sometimes I can see low coolant light flash for just an instant. not even long enough to fully light bulb

switched those two bulbs/sockets with two others, bulbs were fine as they worked in other spots. temp and low coolant lights still don't light up. TM said low coolant light is supposed to come on when key is first turned on, doest say about temp light. checked wires on both new sensors...

hey guys, question: are the temp light and low coolant light (below speedometer) supposed to come on when you first turn on key?? just had to pull instrument cluster again as I didn't get my speedometer cable plugged fully in, and tested my dash lights before closing her backup, and those two...

before I pit the calipers on, it would turn free. but it wasn't like you could just spin it and it continue to go much before it stopped going to ha e to take it back apart and retorque then loosenhalf a turn

I'm guessing the TM is wrong about torque on front bearings too? as in after final tightening to 50lbs, loosen to fit locknut on pin? probably should have backed off half a turn I'm guessing. just got wheels on and took it for a short drive, probably 2 miles, half on gravel road. was testing...

Thats where I thought it was supposed to go, but it won't reach. If I had some 5/16" hose, thats where I would have mounted it. But it'll be fine living where it is now. And yeah, I already cleaned the rear vent hose and replaced that vent too.

also decided to repaint hubs, free/locked line was getting hard to see. better than it was thought about repainting the wheels, but the paint on them is still solid, no rust. and the road out here would just cover them back over with dirt anyway. so just going to leave them as is. If I...

well ended up removing and cleaning both hoses. used air compressor to make sure both of them, and the hard line, were all clear. reinstalled all with new hose clamps and a new vent. original hose bolt clamp wouldn't reach anywhere that I could bolt it down. dont know where its supposed to be as...

Question... why would the front differential vent hose run up to the frame... then into a steel hard line...then on up toward rad... them back into another hose... then up to top of rad support??? this is stock is it?? I can understand wanting to keep water out if the diff if you were driving...

Finished the hubs this morning. Then got brake hoses, calipers, and pads all done. Then lubed all the grease zerks in the front end. Going to look for any other zerks under the truck later, I've done them all before... but can't remember how many there were. Just have to bleed front brakes...

So regular wheel bearing grease is not what should be used? Like Lucas "Red and Tacky"?

Hummm.... I fully intended to check back here this morning to see if there were any replies. completely forgot about it though. So... today I reinstalled the hub and bearings, and of course before putting in the outer bearing I used my grease gun and put quite a bit of grease in the cavity...

yeah it sucks to say the least. had a number of issues. some improved, others didn't. have to take a handful of meds every morning and night. hate taking prescription meds with all the side effects they have. the spare tire is on the outside of the back door. But I did have cardboard down over...

Yeah, I know how to pack bearings by hand. Just didn't know how to pack more grease into the hub during assembly? I'm guessing just basically fill it before installing outer bearing and axle nuts. Was pretty disappointed by the parts store. Like I said I'm not 100% sure, but I sure think it...
