    M925A2 Transmission losing oil

    Divert the hoses from the air box then seal the air box with gasket maker. As far as the drain plug on the bell housing goes...leave it in the holder. do not plug it up unless you go deep water fording. I plan on putting an elbow with ball valve on it later to make this easier. It's not...

    M925A2 Transmission losing oil

    I spoke with 2 different Allison mechanics. They said that Dex 3 is not recommended. I told them the trans model number and they said it's not an electric trans and I should keep changing it with the 15w40 motor oil that is already in it.

    Caution Lights rotating but bulbs not going on.

    Hooked it up to 12V first and they didn't go off. Then tried 24. Spin at the same rate. When I got the bulb off the filament was not burned but broken off and free floating in the bulb Found some bulbs for 3 bucks and they are 100w http://www.1000bulbs.com/product/98644/EIKO-01004.html

    OK got the bulbs out. The filaments are broken. I'll pick up new bulbs. Not sure who will have them but I'll check the hardware store and Home Depot.

    M925A2 Transmission losing oil

    Best thing to do is bypass all 3 of the hoses going to the air box. Then you can see which is leaking and you don't get a run away motor.

    I can't remember. I picked up 4 of them and I paid 20 each if I remember correctly. The other 2 worked great on my pick up. So, I assumed I did something wrong. I could pay you for the bulbs if you have some extra.

    Caution Lights rotating but bulbs not going on.

    I tried to pull them out but can't and don't want to break the insert part. I'll try to get a picture of the bulb today. I looked at the filament and it doesn't look like they are burnt out. The bulb looks new.

    M925A2 Transmission losing oil

    Does it have a fording kit? If it does then make sure its off. Also, if the trans, t case or fuel tank are over filled it will leak into the air box. This can be dangerous because it can get sucked into the motor and you can get a run away motor. I bypassed my lines. see here...

    I mounted 2 caution lights on my truck and it rotates but doesn't light up. I picked thes light up from a SS member a few months ago and finally installed them. I actually picked up 4. 2 for my pick up truck. The ones on the pick up were installed shortly after I got it and work fine. The 2 on...
