That might be the temperature transducer but it's not the fan switch. Look in front of the engine where one of the hoses attaches and runs forward. Picture attached, at the oval, just below picture center.
This switch can easily be checked with an Ohm meter but I can't remember if it is...
The coolant temperature is sensed by a switch on the right front area of the engine. It's a switch, not a sensor. That switch tells the solenoid valve in the passenger footwall to open or close the air supply to the fan clutch. My truck has a sticking solenoid valve, as have others. I don't...
If you follow the tube from the emergency front gladhand it goes to the one-way valve then to a shuttle valve. That shuttle valve is most likely bad. So is the one-way valve. It is at that shuttle valve that another tube heads off to places unknown, actually to the parking brake system.
That...
I put this thread here because the Unimog tires are about the biggest we still have to break down the old fashion way.
With half a dozen tires to de-bead there had to be an easy way. Here is the John Deere remote control micro adjustable bead breaker:
The micro adjuster to get the wheel in...
NDT, as you predicted, here is what we found after pressure-washing off much of the last coat of white paint.
Which turned into this with a little chalk:
And these:
tell us this was a CARPENTER trailer for TVA.
The trailers are rough will be ok with application of a lot of TLC!
Just bought these M-100's with toppers. One topper looks commercial, but has anyone seen a cover like this on a military trailer before? Searching does not find anything even similar. The trailer is a Dunbar Kapple dated 3/52.
Also got another Dunbar Kapple made 4/52 (obvious handmade...
Those A1 schematics are nice, actually. Once downloaded to your computer, expand the page to match your eyes (in my case, BIG) and look on SHT (sheet) 2 in the description column for the circuit you want to find. I haven't found a way to search for the name of the circuit, except manually, but...
Here's what you are looking for. Lift the flexible covers to see the terminals on the polarity protection device. You can tell if the connections are tight by wiggling the wires. There are labels on those wires but mine are hard to read. I think the 24v pairs are on top and 12v below, but...
Quoting Bert Gummer as he sat in a deuce and a half: ��

My wipers have worked for a year and a half, but just developed a problem. Intermittent does not work and the blades no longer return to correct parking position. Low and high speeds still work so the motor is basically good. Basic function of the wipers will 'get me by' until it's fixed...
