    M1008 overdrive ?

    Not an easy match up for the Cummins engine and GM auto transmission. You will need a $1000+ adapter. They can be found on old Frito's trucks and now some vendors are selling them. I would not go the 4L60E route. If you are spending all the money on a controller use the 4L80E.

    hard start problem

    Your description of 12v on the orange wires. It should only read voltage when the GP controller card calls for it. The big red wire will be hot at all times. The pink wire will be hot whenever the key is on. The light blue wire is a ground for the GP relay and it will close when the controller...

The 12v circuit energizes the GEN2 relay when the key is on and the 24v circuit send power to the alternator exciter plug. Lets work on the 12v side first. 1 – From...

    M1009 Generator 1 Circuit Problem

    Read the first few pages of the troubleshooting section of the TM 9-2320-289-20. It will help you understand how to read the wiring diagrams.
