    Glow plugs FRYING. 24V constant

    Sorry. I was just putting out an idea. I think there is only the wiring, control-box, batteries, switch, and glow plugs as part of that system. You replaced everything except wiring and batteries. And you are reporting numbers which make me think the wiring is ok. Sorry, good luck. I can't...

    Glow plugs FRYING. 24V constant

    I think you have a battery problem. You probably don't have enough power to warm the glow plugs. I used a 24V battery charger/starter(Schumacher SE-3000). Try starting it with something like that. I do not know what all the control box does but I would assume knowing power levels where too...

    Charging system

    I have never read the voltage on my batteries while running. I would imagine you would get a false number as the voltage would appear odd because you were not looking at the voltage of the batteries but looking at the voltage of the operating vehicle which may swing. If the vehicle is in good...

    Charging system

    Ok, the batteries are charged and it runs. Great job. I would not assume you have a charging issue or any other issue. The guy at Gov Planet when I picked up my HMMWV said they get it going. Meeting the commitments of certificate of what they said when you purchased them(period). This is...

    Charging system

    There is probably someone better to answer the question. But I am headed home and I will try to get some time to look at the manuals to see if I understand 14v stud. If you get the batteries fully charged and it starts and runs for a few minutes and then run down. Then it is probably your...

    Charging system

    I like to be a little focused on my problem (cause I am a stupid nuub) and you are introducing problems. There is no doubt there are tests to check the smart box. You may have fried it. But first what I would do is get a 24V Charger. I bought and used a Schumacher SE-3000 1.5-200 Amp Manual...

    New Kansas HMMWV owner

    I got mine in September. I added the keylock. I just order mine from Amazon at $70. It works well. I am planning painting mine a dessert camo with black accents(black under-carriage). I joined the board right about that time. I think I am going to buy the aluminum metal roof, back and...

    What's your EUC wait time

    What are you going to do with all those HMMWVs?

    Turnover trouble

    I had the similar (or the same) issue a few weeks ago. I left the electrics on and drained the batteries a little. I bought and used a Schumacher SE-3000 1.5-200 Amp Manual Fleet Battery Charger which has a 24 volt system on it. Be careful you hookup the cables correctly. I imagine Humvees...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Why is it controversial to bed line the truck? I am wanting to learn.

    2004 HMMWV - Newb

    I am planning on using T6 Rotella too. I use it on everything. I have not changed to it yet. So I am excited to see how well it works for you! Thanks,

    Montana titles from GP

    I have the same issue. Bought the Humvee in June. Got the Humvee in October. Got told in Novembers oops but they will rush it. Got told yesterday it will be 3-4 more weeks. So... If you get yours I will be happy to hear about it. Gov Planet is not so great about the paperwork it would...

    My item is in a secret location! NOT HAPPY

    I recently bought a M998 Humvee from GovPlanet. They are not perfect. The process is somewhat flawed. But they have been pretty friendly and accommodating to me. Their web site is not perfect but it seems good enough. I have never seen a product on their website where I cannot decipher the...
