Can program that out with Dana Diagnostics.

I switched my harness over to trinary and it works great. Some of that information is in the post I linked in post #3 above.

Can always contact Red Dot with the part number. Never hurts to ask...... The new versions of the Gen II have the ProTecht module: http://firewall.reddotcorp.com/pdf/eadvantage-2011%2006.pdf

He did mention that it was zero Ohms on the control solenoid so that likely explains it. And yeah I pointed out the different ground pin for it.

Do the test with batteries and jumper cables. The truck will just act as the rotational source.

Does this alternator have the VR with the diagnostic LED's and if so what are they doing? You can also just completely disconnected the truck from the alternator and hook it to a couple batteries on the floor with jumper cables and hit the E terminal with a 24v lead to turn it on. If it acts...

No that is correct. It will only get the 24v from the PPD/LBCD which drops the voltage from the batteries across its Schottky diodes that have about a 0.4v forward bias. At any rate that E terminal signal only needs to be present momentarily on the later units and that will turn the regulator...

HWY does not drop pressure. Partially because the system has to account for pressure rise due to temperature, and partially because they want the ability to manually inflate higher and not have the controller fight you.

Update to the Jeep in the above pic. It's here for a cam sensor problem - customer has spent thousands and taken it to multiple shops. Pico scope showed the cam sensor signal having erroneous drop outs in the middle of trigger tooth high pulses causing the PCM to miscount the rising edges from...

I would never make fun of them to their face. They bring me plenty of money. But they probably know what I think. I daily my M1079 to my shop so.....

Very nice! I think we may be the only two A1R M1079's on the planet with the crew protection cab commanders hatch. Love mine - there's no better way to get onto the roof.

The 260 is *THE* FMTV alternator now. It superceded the 100 and the 200 for all models. So the military has kits to install it on every single FMTV serial number back to 3116 trucks. So yes. You can install the 260 on any FMTV with the right assortment of parts. It's easier for serpentine...

Welcome to 100A hell. Get a 200 or a 260.

Sure you can torture any data set til it tells you what you want to hear. But the point is that I didn't have to even look for that clip. It just happened to be posted yesterday and came across my feed with no searching. They are crap. You don't actually believe they aren't do ya? Really...

Nope. They are 100% all horrible. None of them are getting my money.
