You may want to consider this modification to the firewall mounted 24 volt bus bar to get a good 12 volt connection point. It's not hard to do and is reversible. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?95803-M1009-Rear-power-24v-to-12v-modification&highlight=radio If properly done, this...

The wait light should always have +12 volts on it from the fuse box, the ground for the light comes from the GP controller to turn the light on and off. Check the dark Blue wire that comes out of the GP card connector to see if it has rubbed thru anywhere and is now connecting to ground. If...

My M1010 does the same thing. The M1008 and M1009 do not

Thanks for the nice comments. And Thank You to all that have purchased cards. The cards are made by a USN Viet Nam veteran and myself. I served in the USAF, NY and PA Air National Guard way back in the 80's. I also employ a prior service Marine and an Army Iraq Combat Vet. Recently the Army...

Minor correction, it is 100 amps that 8 AC60's draw at 11.3 VDC. We use these 100 and 150 amp breakers in vehicle radio installations. http://www.delcity.net/store/Hi!Amp-Surface-Mount-!-%3Cbr%3EManual-Reset-(Switchable)/p_193073

From what I have found, Carmine is a bright red. I have painted all of the interior burgundy parts in three CUCV's with this color and it works very well. This is very close to the OEM color. http://www.eastwood.com/burgundy-interior-paint-aerosol-12-oz-net.html One of the dash pads was...

A good set of tire chains is hard to beat. There are all different types for various conditions. Mud, Ice Snow etc. Driving skill and knowing your limitations are critical in conditions like this. I think you made a wise choice and turning around when you did. Karl

I use these relays for our projects at work. They work well as a GP relay and snow plow relay. http://www.murcal.com/Catalog/Metal-DC-Contactor-Family/974-1215-011-09

TriFlow is fantastic. We buy it by the case. It works very well on keeping things well lubricated.

The holes are for the antenna mounting bracket. The trucks looks great.

Additional pictures without the extra wires.

Take your pick. This is from a M1009. The white and red wires are not stock.

That is normal operation for the GP card. "During a cold engine start sequence, the GPM will typically keep the WAIT light on for approximately 8 seconds and will keep the GP relay closed for approximately 15 seconds. This time is measured from when the GPM sees the start sequence from turning...

I check them every year, usually just before winter. This way I know that I have working glow plugs when they are needed most. I also change the fuel filter at the same time as the GP check. I always write the date and the mileage on the fuel filter with a sharpie. This way I have a quick...

I have a few of them. I still have a Simpson 260 Series 7M I bought in 1980. The red wire is positive?? Is that correct?:?:

That dang thing drove me nuts!!

Bringing up an old thread here with a similar problem. I was testing the GP system on a recently acquired M1010. The wait light would come on and stay on for an extended period of time. Much longer than normal. I would hear the GP relay close and then open as normal and the wait light stayed...

Our GP card testing has confirmed this "dead zone"as well. There is a temperature window where the GP card does not always come on.

I have 2 trucks that do the exact same thing. The only way to get them to start (when the engine is warm) is to heat the glow plugs some and then they both start right away. The M1009 has a new IP in it and all the cylinders passed a compression test. The latest revision on the GPD2 (C...

Johns plans are to lower the coolant level, sand and irrigate the area needing repair with brake clean and then install the JB Weld. Thanks for the suggestion I will pass it along in the next phone call.
