Thanks for taking the time to write that out. Send me your Venmo and I’ll buy you a six pack 😎. I’ll run those wires down and check the trouble shooting guide. Thank you very much

What you are saying makes sense under the conditions it is working and not working under. I believe you could be correct on the three sensors and want to either replace or test them.

Sorry it’s been about 4 yrs since I drove my 1088 and trying to refresh my memory. Where are those three sensors and is there a way for me to test them? I have a diesel computer but have not been able to get codes on it figured out.

I am having the same issue with a 2006 M1088A1 CODES: 1 5423 2 2255 3 5454 4 5465 5 5456 Truck will drive fine while cold and then after 2-3 miles shifts out of 7 and down to 5. Feels like the clutch engages and no contact, just smooth. If you pull over and turn truck off and restart it will...

I am having a similar problem. If I do hold the master switch at start position I do get power. When I release it to prime and run, I lose all power. Any suggestions?

We arrived home last night at midnight. I will make a post write up today.

just always park on a hill

I will get all the info for straps. tge shorter grey one is a military hoist strap for Naval Special warfare MEATS ( maritime extraction) we used them on our NSW boats. The team has tons of them that expire and are tossed. I can try to get more.

Update to post from last night. I will do a complete write up to include tools needed, improvisation used and give credit to all the heroes who can together to help make this happen. This morning Warren @casper31 showed up and did a mail run to pick up the NEW spare starter We had overnighted...

Thank you for the offer. We made it to the TA fuel station and parked. Thankfully two amazing gentlemen stopped by and helped us out. Clint “74m35a2” stopped by with his truck and saved the day. I will do a full write up with pics in the morning. On another note, I am going to be here until...

Clint is on his way to save us. Thank you for the Lu k up.
