    LMTV M1078 Wont start.

    So today I finally got my oil pressure switch and as predicted it solved all the problems. The Oil pressure and STOP light are working correctly now. The next project is fixing the heater.

    LMTV M1078 Wont start.

    Okay, so today, with the truck running, I disconnected one of the wires of the oil pressure switch and as you said, the alternator started charging the batteries. It jumped up to 28V for the first time. The STOP and oil lights were also gone. So I need to buy a new Oil pressure switch Thank...

    LMTV M1078 Wont start.

    So in theory, if I start the truck normally and then after it starts running I disconnect one of the wires from the oil pressure switch, the truck should run normally and the oil pressure light and STOP light should turn off, the alternator should also start working until I turn off the engine...

    To answer your questions: With the white wires connected to the pressure switch, you are getting oil and stop lights when you turn on the main switch? Yes, the truck starts normally however the STOP and oil pressure lights stay on. (I have a 0.65 volts across the white wires) When you start...

    LMTV M1078 Wont start.

    I have disconnected the white wires after the truck started and that removed both the oil light and the STOP light however that also removed all the other lights on the dash as far as I remember, So you want me to try and start the truck by connecting the white wires together? Did I understand...

    The outside temp was about 80F. I have never ran the car for more than 10-15 min so it has never gotten to higher temperatures. I have always been worried about the red STOP light and didn't to ruin the engine.

    LMTV M1078 Wont start.

    Okay boys we did it. It now starts right up. As Ronmar said the problem was from the VIM control. I had 6 relays in there 5 of which were 24 volt and one that was 12 volt. when I changed that to a 24 volt the problem was resolved. I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone for helping...

    LMTV M1078 Wont start.

    So I spend the entire day trying to see how to start this from the inside. This is what I figured out. when master switch is on, the red start engine button has about 0.7-0.85Volts going through it. Not sure what it is suppose to be. So here is what I think is happening. The oil pressure...
