I believe I need to apply power to pin Z on P110. I’m a bit confused on Pin M though. In one place it says pin M is not used, but in another place it says Pin M has power.

I’m hoping I understood all this correctly so here goes. The usual issue, CTIS controller bricked with 5 solid lights, so it’s been unplugged for awhile. I just purchased a “NOS” unit from eBay Which I “think” is what I can use. First unit is the original, second is the replacement. I’m...

Problem solved, though I’m not exactly sure how this came about. Things were fine till one day on the way home she quit charging. I “think” my first investigation must have had me quick checking relays, which didn’t solve the problem. When I popped the cab I saw my alternator bolt, the big...

So my alternator quit charging. According to the manufacturer trouble shooting procedure my alternator and regulator are good. If I jump 24V to the ENG term on the regulator everything charges fine, which says regulator and alternator are functioning as advertised. My oil pressure reads good...

Since we're sort of on the subject....How does one tell when their membership is due to expire?

Back in The Day we called that a DuPont Rebuild.

Ah, yes they are.

Your kidding, right?

Well NASA described it as powerful, so that’s good enough for me. Remote region of Canada? It was the entire province of Quebec, almost 2.5x the size of Texas, almost 3x the size of France. Not sure how they feel about being “remote”, Quebec City, Montreal and all that. Can it happen? Of...

I don't really see that as making the case. An our long HF blackout, no matter how extensive, doesn't strike me as armageddon. As far as a "grid ending" solar CME, it's already happened. In 1989 one of the largest known ejections in modern history knocked the entire province of Quebec off...

I've said my bit on this subject, and since it's not my money being spent, more power to whomever. I've done enough research to be satisfied that an EMP attack is so low on the list of things to worry about as to not even be an issue. Research that didnt come from websites with Prep, Survive...

Its not the EMP that will get you, it’s the significant nuclear blast needed to generate an EMP strong enough to actually kill a vehicle. If it’s close enough and big enough to kill your vehicle, it’s going to kill you in it.

If it’s strong enough to affect vehicles in any serious way it’ll likely kill YOU outright.

Thanks for that. Btw, what is that plug with coiled cable in the middle of the battery hold down? Looks like big old style 12V cigarette lighter plug.

Where did you mount the solar panel?

Since someone else revived this Zombie thread, I dont have to feel guilty so..... Its giving me a headache. My supposedly new 6TLs took a dump. I'm still trying to work out which of the 4, if any, are still viable but in any case will drop down to a 2 batt config. At least for now...

I'm down with the spares, though on this particular ride I haven't gotten to that point yet. I'm still at the point of replacing, if I can just get the TIME these days.

I figured one example is enough. The Carrington event, just like the one I mentioned in Canada, is not the type of EMP pulse that is going to burn out electronics. It takes out large electrical grids. Those with miles and miles and miles of wire, which act like a sponge to absorb the energy...

The Gub'ment wouldn't even wait for it to "pop". An ICBM designed specifically for an EMP strike would be indistinguishable from a standard nuclear attack. IOW, WWIII has already started. Plus EMP events are some of the most over-hyped "problems" in the survival circles. Problem 1 I just...

I know I’m supposed to be offended on somebodies behalf, but damn that’s funny. Oh, you should be ashamed..or something..blah blah.
