I see that they sell adapters for the OM606 to 4l80e transmission

Hi, Have anyone tried to put a Mercedes OM606 engine in the hmmwv? Will it work or is it a bad idea?

Do you unplug the wires when measuring the voltage at idling or go "through"/ skin the wire and measure with it plugged in?

Hi, glad you found the problem. I also have the 85 and 86 code on my hmmwv. It happend after i changed the regulator on top of alternator. I guess it was bad or something. May it have damaged some of my sensors? TISS, TOSS or TPS. Can I measure on it to see if it is good or bad?

Is it possible to get in contact with Kurt? Is he on Steel soldiers or other facebook groups?

Hi, Is it possible to tune up the voltage on 3phase a little bit? It says 120v/208v on the swtich. When i turn up the voltage knob to max it give me around 210-215v. I would have hoped to get it up to 230v since that is the voltage we use in Europe Any tips and tricks?

Hi, Started up my new MEP-803a yesterday and it ran OK. Noticed the diesel return leaks in the fuel line i marked it the pictures. Is it possible to buy this fuel line new? Or can I put on a transparent fuel line over the steel line with a clamp on? Its seems weird that the clothed fuel line...

Nice tip Guyfang. Thought of something like that myself. I'll guess that should be ok

Thank you for fast reply :) Is there some way to fit in on a trailer that is 72" wide or a car freighter that is 76"? Will removing tires help?

Hi, I just won a gentrailer on ironplanet. It has a m116a3 trailer and mep 803a generator. Im planning to pick it up on a "car" trailer and my concerns are that the m116a3 is wider than my car trailer. Do someone here have the measurement from outer tire to outer tire? It would be much...

Location updated, sorry havent been on the forum for a while. Did some mechanic work on the Hmmwv yesterday. Dropped the pan for the transmission and found the electric wire for the PCS was hanging unconnected. Hooked it back on and made sure that it was on right and tight now. Also measured...

Sorry, updated now

Ok didnt know that, thank you for the tip. I thought there were only going to be one ground when the batteries are series connected. So do you think my situation with alternator cable giving ground when the vehicle is not running is normal?

Thank you for answer, Yes I understand that the 14+ tap is to charge only the rear battery to balance it for the transmission and TCM. I tried to change the regulator for a new one i bought Niehoff N3135. When I started it with that regulator it started to come some smoke from the alternator...

When I unhook the batterycable going to the negative (-) on the rear battery it wouldnt cut all the power to the Hmmwv. Lights still work and they glow like there is 12v getting to them. I see that it is the cable going from the Dual regulator +14 connector that makes ground between the...

Hi, I have a couple problems with my M1045a2 First problem is that my transmission is in "limp mode" only does 1-2 gear. I have put the transmission in diagnostic mode with a "jumper" and the code is 7-3 that says problem with the Pressure Control Solenoid. I have cheked the wiring and cant...

Where is the best place to buy new Smart Start system?

I got a 200amp alternator

Yes additional grounding added. I couldnt see the voltmeter drop and go up again after glowing. The voltmeter shows yellow even if the batteries are fully loaded. I think there is an issue with the regulator on the generator also, sometime it is on green when the engine is running and suddenly...

I measured that power was getting to the GP connector cap. But I will take an extra look on the voltmeter to see if it drops and then get up to normal again. Thanks for the tip
