    gen 1 light on with heat

    My truck is doing the same thing, and the fuse box is eating a fuse a day. It burns them up, melts them and the heater will only run for a little while before this happens. Where do I start looking? I am going to pull my heater control box to see if that is the cause.

    Installed new glow plugs and now nothing? HELP

    I just replaced Glow Plug and truck starts up real nice, but...... No clicking of the relay or electrical system at all. Wait light comes on, but no glow plug noise. The sound of silence worries me. Glow plug relay, or controller card? Put them in but did not drive just in case

    Pintle Hitch Removal

    How does the pintle come out, once the nut is removed? Does it thread out or does it just slide out with extensive hammering, cussing, etc.?

    Trouble with pintle removal.

    When you get the nut loosened, does the pintle just pull out, or is it threaded into the bumper receiver? Mine will turn from side to side, but will not begin to come out. The nut is backed up to the fuel tank and will not go any further.

    Haeter core help

    After trying everything that I knew, I deferred to my local firestone for help. I was told there that I had three things working against me; 1.) The cabin space that i am attempting to heat is huge and therefore puts a strain on my heater - total BS 2.) My radiator is huge and therefore...

    My M1008 stater / flywheel

    I replaced my flywheel and had my starter completely rebuilt last year at the same time and it has worked great since then. Lately I am hearing a catch about every 25 starts or so, like it is locked up or something, like when you start a car that is already started

    Haeter core help

    What should I check if I have recently (last week) changed both my thermostat and my heater core. The top radiator hose is not getting hot. Neither of the hoses going to the heater core are hot to the touch. The new core will put out luke warm air but that is about it. Don't need coffee...

    CUCV-Instrument Cluster Decoded

    Is it possible to solder a connection on the printed circuit board where maybe it has worn or rubbed through and rusted out. My Gen 1 light comes on and My Gen 2 does not. Upon inspection, the printed circuit board had rubbed through and the copper conduit was rusted and/ or missing. Seems...

    electrical problems CUCV

    I have already replaced the "master" head light switch to a new one. It is just the head lights flashing. The high beam lights on the speedometer flash on and off when the lights are on high beam. That tells me that the power is being cut in and out - off and on somewhere, but only to the...
