Hello! The solution was simple: I tighten the nut between transmission case and fitting and leak stopped. Now OK for 300 miles. Thanks for the support! Christian

I'm proud to be member of this fantastic forum, much better than other forums where the netiquette don't exist... :-) I bough it from a german seller of military trucks. He also made the frame for habitat and second gas tank. The original ECU have 5 solid ligths (I have it), so he switch from...

Hello all. Today I dig a little bit more. Seems that there are 2 diffrent valves for 2 diffrent pressures: https://www.oshkoshequipment.com/products/detail/84/1755/CTIS%2DWheel%2DValve%2DKit%2DRear%2DWheel%2D90PSI (for 90psi)...

I did all the job... Interiour of cab and habitat, external painting of whole truck etc... :-) Christian

The pressures are: highway: 95psi, tires don't loose air, but CTIS continues to inflate. cross country: 60psi, working perfect sand: 40psi: working perfect So I also think it's a MTV ECU, but I don't know if I should happy or not... I don't know if all the components (wheel valve, PCU, QRV...

Yes you are right, but strange thing is that ctis don't work only with the 95psi pressure. I am scared about the high pressure, on front tiresbI got 95 psi, and max psi for tire is 95. I would be more than happy if pressure is around 75/80 psi, but staying so near on max is scaring me... What I...

Hello Coachgo! I verify the pressure and in fact is above 90 psi. Main problem is that the ctis does not work with this pressure, continue to inflate, recycle everytime, pressure test after 30 seconds is always negative, so starts again to inflate. What should be possible is to insert a...

Hello again. Now I am quite sure to found the reason. I gave a look to the ECU and as immagined it's not original. I did the following tests: - deflate to cross country: works well, stops at 60psi and stay stable - deflate to sand: works also, stops at 40psi and stay stable - inflate again to...

Yes, I use shop air to the truck. Today I need to recheck it again. I untighten the banjo skrews, let's see if some tire has diffrent pressure... Thank you very much! Christian

Hello again. I'm now quite sure that the ECU is from a FMTV 5 ton truck. That can explain why the pressure is so high. Are the ECU compatible with the original pressure transducer on the PCU? If I change the pressure transducer on the PCU, makes diffrence? It's possible to change pressure...

Hello all! Thank you for your infos. @coachgo: I have Goodyear MV/T tires, weight is about 19.800 lbs (9000kg). I untighten the banjo skrews and seems no wheel is loosing air. But today I will make the soap water test. I'm quite sure that the ECU is not original, it was replaced from another...

Hello forum. I know that there are a lot of CTIS threads, but I didn't found any usefull info, probably because I am blind... Sorry about it :shrugs: I have a M1078 with CTIS partially working. I will try to explain what happen: - Air tank is full at 120psi - CTIS starting to work (hwy...

OK. Thank you. The problem is that I am loosing oil right there, and I don't know how much can I tighten. Seems that would be a trial and error procedure... :roll: Christian

transmission oil cooler hose: torque for the jam nut on 90 degree fitting: SOLVED Hello forum. One of my jam nut on the 90 degree fitting got loose and I lost some oil between transmission chase and 90 degree fitting. The steps to change the trans oil cooling pipes are in TM 9-2320-365-20-3 on...

Why not relays? Using some industrial relay is more reliable than PWM, and in emergency can control manually... Christian

Sounds very intresting. Thank you very much for the information! @Ronmar: I will be more than happy if you share some pics and info about your solution. Thank you very much! I would like to have a system like the original ECU, where you can select the ground type, maybe with display to see...

Hello again. Please don't misunderstand me. It's not because it is not working, but I like to have a spare part of this component. On web actually I cannot find any seller that sells the controller. This is why I was thinking to make a rebuild of it. Christian

Hello forum. I am thinking of creating a Arduino hack for the CTIS controller for M1078, first and maybe second generation. I gave a very fast look at the system and seems not really complicated. Does anyone have some information or a workflow diagram, some sensor value or something else that...

OK. Thank you very much for your help! I will try the thin plastic ring and also the alu handles from online market... Thanks a lot from Italy!

Hello. The wood is not very thick, about 3,2mm woos and 5mm foam that can compressed. The original handles have sharp edges and I fear they will cut leater... Welding a pipe on the alu handle can be a solution, I will think about it! Thank you Christian
