Hi guys, Yesterday (Sunday 02/18/2013) I replaced the front passenger side turn signal/parking lamp socket. The old one was broken. So I replaced it with a new one. Now I have a working passenger side turn signa/parking lamp again. That is all... Good day...

Warthog, I tried that, would it be okay if their sockets take a different size bulb?

Hi guys, Anyone know where I can get a parking lamp/turn signal socket for the passenger side, front end of a M1009? Mine needs to be replaced, the contacts in the socket broke off.. Atlanta area preferred so I can get it right away, and fix it right away. Any ideas would be greatly...

Hi guys, Just some simple questions... What gauge is the black ground wire from the fuel sending unit to the frame? Or what gauge should it be? And what size is the ring terminal at the end of that wire that connects it to the frame? Thank you...

1983 CUCV M1009 what to look for Hello Cris, I would suggest looking for a 1985 or younger M1009 CUCV. And not a 1983 or 1984. I have heard that technically speaking something about the engine and/or its parts are designed better. As I do not remember the exact details, but I do remember...

Hi guys, Thanks for the advice and information. I just fixed the problem. I simply replace both amber parking lamp/turn signal bulbs, and that did it. Now both turn signals/parking lamps blink and work perfectly. Good day...

Steel, Thank you. But I may not have to now, if I replace the bulb that is burned out. When I replace the bulb, if that does not solve the problem, then something else may be the problem, then I will go from there. Night.

Hello Rich, Thank you for the reply, advice and information. I will change the bulb and see what happens.. I will take your word for it that you are correct. Because when I turn the switch to turn on the right turn signal it does click, it does stay there, the bulb does come on, but does...

Rich, In my M1009, the turn signals and wiper are controlled by the same lever/switch... So it may be difficult. If I had to replace that switch. Hmmm... Thank you.

K9, Thanks for the advice. I did not replace the flasher. This just happened today, so I have not had time to work on it yet. I will do it Friday or Sunday when I am off from work. But since I just got back from the supermarket. I noticed that the front passenger side amber bulb parking...

Hello Carnac, It is the switch, not the handle from what I believe. I can turn the left turn signal on and it blinks. When I turn the right turn signal on, the indicator on the dash comes on and stays on, the bulbs on the front and back end outside stay on as well, and none of them blink...

Hi guys, On the way home from work, today my turn signal switch broke. When I took the part number and searched the oreilly's site. It gave me two results.. an ac delco, and a bwd switch. They both look a little different from each other. So which one should I use? Or does anyone have...

Hello, I do not know if that type of runaway issue can happen with a 6.2 in a CUCV. But in CUCV's, the starter relay can become stuck open, and make your starter runaway, until it burns out. So the best way to stop that from happening is to replace the stock starter relay with a different...

Hi guys, Just to make this brief and to the point. I got my M1009 June 4th 2010, as a birthday present to myself. It was a bit rough in the beginning, but since then I have done work to it, and had some work done to it. Now for a long time now, it has been running well enough to be a daily...

Hi guys, I would like to get my hands on an Receiver (R) 442. Where would be the best place online to look for one at a reasonable price? It may come in handy some time. At least it would be interesting to listen to. Just my $0.02 cents...

What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? Hi guys... All I have done within the last month is: Get a new set of 4 Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac tires. Pour a pint of Seafoam motor treatment into my fuel tank And Replace both windshield wipers... That is all... for now... Just my $0.02...

Hello CPF, Ok, no worries. Based on your advice and information I will NOT put it into my M1009's vacuum lines. Period, end of story. That is all I needed to know. Thank you again, you have just saved me from causing damage to my 1009. And I will remember to add it to my oil a few...

Thanks for the post. It seems to be a wonderful fuel treatment... My truck runs better.. But on the can, it says you can add it to your crankcase as an oil treatment too.. Just my $0.02 cents...

Hi guys, Since putting SeaFoam in my fuel tank after my last fill-up, I have noticed a change for the better. So I would also like to run it thru my vacuum lines to clean that system too. But the instructions on the can do not explain how other than to say use a little at a time. So How...

Hello Guys, Thanks for the extra information. That is all I wanted to know. I would not think running them together in the same vehicle would do any harm. Especially since one would go into the oil and the other would go into the fuel. Just my $0.02 cents... Good day...
