    M1031 dies when PTO is engaged

    As suspected, the proximity switch on the transfer case shifter is bad. I did the quick and dirty scotch lock bypass and it worked. Genset puts out correct voltage and the air compressor works great. I used it to air up the tires on the 1031. Too dang lazy to drive it over to the air compressor...

    M1031 dies when PTO is engaged

    The TM 9-4940-562-23P and TM 9-4940-562-13 are not released nor posted in the resource section as of yet. As I have seen others state, it sure would be nice to have them released. Looks as if the actual truck is being let out, they would release the TMs for it also.

    M1031 dies when PTO is engaged

    Found out that the GP relay is intermittent. Never seen one do that before. Ussually when they quit making contact, they continue to not make contact. Looks like it is off to NAPA for a relay now.

    M1031 dies when PTO is engaged

    Thanks for the clarification about the gov switch. I kinda thought that is what you meant. Also, thanks for the info on needing to put it in 2nd instead of drive. I am currently attempting to figure out why it is a pain to start. I found all glow plugs bad, replaced those with AC60Gs and also...

    As for the voltage, thank you for the heads up about that SmokeyDod! Would sure hate to fry something because it was wrong.

    M1031 dies when PTO is engaged

    I am not sure I follow what you are saying. The blue knob is what would engage the PTO. This , I understand. But you go on and state to not move a lever to engage the PTO? Are you speaking of the Governor switch by chance? I will try it next time by engaging the PTO before I start it, but it...

    M1031 dies when PTO is engaged

    Well it seems logical to engage the PTO in park, then put the thing in drive. It sure would save grinding the gears as they mesh. I am thinking that maybe the switch on the transfer case selector isn't doing it's thing when it is in neutral and it thinks it is still in gear.

    M1031 dies when PTO is engaged

    Tried to engage the PTO with the transfer case in neutral and the truck died immediately. Did this several times in fact. Sounds as if electrical power is cut because there is no grinding being I have it still in park. Is there a safety switch preventing the truck from running if something is wrong?
