Hello from Germany,
I have now started renovating the electrical system in my CUCV m1008.
Now I have a question, can someone tell me how many amps are going through the starter relay? How strong does this relay have to be? Since this relay should also be exchanged, unfortunately there is nothing...
That's right. i will do this as the last task. First of all, the frame and the sub-floor must be derusted and preserved. Then the brake lines are new and in October the CUCV has to go through the TÜV (I hope you know what that is). When that's done, I'll have my head free for the electrics.
That's right, but then doesn't the control light on the dashboard have to light up? It's completely dead. But it works, I've cleaned the instrument panel and tested all the lamps.
Thank you very much, I'll do it like this. The module should be on the steering column. I had already seen. I haven't checked that with the Fuse.
Thanks for the advice.
But why is the motor switched off when the cable is connected and runs when it is disconnected.
Yes you are right, the previous owner played around a lot with the electronics, there must have been a cable fire, after that everything was only repaired temporarily. Everything important works fine. I think if everything is to be perfect, the entire electrical system has to be new. But I can't...
so here is the photo of the plug that causes the problems.
It was connected to the coolant level sensor on the right side of the radiator and nothing worked.
yes, the one to the right of the radiator.
the vehicle has been converted to manual preheating. maybe it has something to do with it.
I'll send pictures tomorrow.
Hello,
I reinstalled the coolant level sensor in my CUCV and connected the cable. After that the engine started shortly afterwards it went out and did not start anymore. After I unplugged the cable, it started normally again. Can someone tell where the problem is?
