    5 PIN ROCKER SWITCH 12 VOLT

    The jumper has me a bit confused especially on the negative side. Most of the lit switches have a feature to light up the edge of the switch when your dash lights come on then the center of the switch when it's actually in the on position.

    5 PIN ROCKER SWITCH 12 VOLT

    the voltage shouldn't make a difference between 12 and 24 volts. As long as you have the polarity right and it looks like you do. Try hooking it up like there schematic. Best BH

    5 PIN ROCKER SWITCH 12 VOLT

    Ok Automotive stuff is DC compared to a houses wiring which is AC. Normally on most DC devices wiring there is a stripe or marker on one of the 2 wires . You said the USB unit is working that is controlled by one of the switches. Check the wires coming from the USB unit and see if you see any...

    5 PIN ROCKER SWITCH 12 VOLT

    Remember the site is set up around OEM wiring and components found in the technical manuals. Why did you jump pins #7 and #8 together ? And why did you choose them for ground? What wiring diagram are you following? Once again are the switches lit? Have you tried putting a meter between pin...

    5 PIN ROCKER SWITCH 12 VOLT

    the switches didn't come with a wiring diagram? Normally there is pin #s next to each pin and a wiring diagram on the side of the switch. Are they lighted? where did you buy them? part # or Model # Do they have any info on the website you purchased them from.

    What is the ideal Humvee for a starter?

    Find out if you can get it titled for the road in your state first. It's not always as easy as bolting on parts. I'd suggest buying one already in your state and titled for road.

    Fuel Leak In the Valley

    Your more then likley going to find it is the part circled above. I'm not exactly sure what it is called. I think it is like a accelerator pump ? or something. At least on my engine that part leaked and gave me a similar problem. I had the pump rebuilt and was told it was a common problem on the...

    How difficult is it to find a complete Turret for M1045A2?

    It's just like the one in the video above. However I have a different style turret in in now. I upgraded to a motorized turret. I removed my original sponsons and hatch and installed some modified C pillar supports, and side panels to give it more of a GMV look.

    How difficult is it to find a complete Turret for M1045A2?

    It's a steel tube . That has been spliced in the middle with a sleeve. Not much of a roll bar however. Looks like both the B and C pillars in that picture are just bent 2 piece tubes that have a sleeve or coupling over them .

    How difficult is it to find a complete Turret for M1045A2?

    There is a HARD TOP roof with the bearing support, bearing, hatch, close to you. He won't part it out. I think he's asking $3,500 for it It's missing the C pillar. It was from a TOW HMMWV. It has the old style weapons tray . I think it's missing the front window brackets. It needs some TLC ...

    Which look do you prefer... Modern or Traditional

    Lipstick on a pig about describes that thing above. I'm no purist but that thing is just plain ugly. The military platform is easily modified to various configurations without ruining the value of the original truck. Once you spray on bed liner you have in my opinion lowered the resale value as...

    Power X Doors - Which are the best?

    I guess you got the paperwork figured out or your still going to have a very expensive piece of yard art or a desert truck you will need to trailer to the desert.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Are you planning on doing the access panel upgrade while the tank is out. If not I strongly suggest it.

    B17 Nine-O-Nine crash in CT - 2019-10-02

    A couple of us members out here in Ca. flew on the 909 on Mothers day of last year. First flight of the day too just like this was. I placed a go pro camera up in the nose for the take off and wore a head mounted camera. Took a 92 year old friend on it with us. He was a pilot in his younger...

    Help needed chicken shield and riser

    Steve who has the MK-93 for sale minus pins is a stand up guy too. Not trying to hurt a sale with him either. Just remember you have a UPA that is missing parts. ( finding those missing parts will take time ) You will have a cradle missing pins ( finding those may be easier but will take time)...

    Help needed chicken shield and riser

    that's a Mk-93 it is the newest style of cradle available. Ideal for your M2 . That one is damaged he is asking $1,250.00 for it ? The price is about the going rate but your going to have to fix parts on it which will take time and money. A Mk-64 can be found for around $600 or so but you will...

    this is a source to put in your computer. Not always the cheapest ( almost never the cheapest actually but reliable) but you can find hard to find parts from him sometimes. https://www.bmgparts.com/mount.html

    Help needed chicken shield and riser

    Looks like your getting some help from Greg and a few others. Haven't had a chance to take pictures. The Mk-93 is the better of the 2 mounts Mk-64 - Mk-93 in my opinion. It's buffered and doesn't require the adapter you will need with the Mk64. just my opinion but it will come down to how much...
