    Is this all I need? M1097A2

    You need brake line diagram for any and all A2’s, the brake line setup to the calipers is a hodge podge of numerous hard and soft lines as well as clips and brackets. Somewhere on eBay is a complete A2 brake line kit for the price of just one flexible brake line…at least used to be.

    How To Repair HMMWV EESS S3

    Your box is bad…24v for 9 seconds, after glow last 2mins, an S3 smart start sends a constant 5VDC for 2mins, previous start boxes pulsed 24volts for 2mins. If you have 24v after wait light? Your new plugs are now smoked.

    My 4L80E trouble codes

    charging and output are 2 different things, but I’m sure you will disagree as you always do.

    My 4L80E trouble codes

    the reason for a voltage regulator is to regulate ouput, the regulator is calibrated to prevent any output voltage what the regulator is set for 27.5-28.5 for example….driving at high speeds or rpm’s won’t change the output of the generator

    My 4L80E trouble codes

    it’s not smaller to make it charge more, it’s smaller so there is a higher output at lower engine rpm’s

    My 4L80E trouble codes

    the scanner plugs into the harness connector at the transmission, the scanner is plugged in parallel so your can take control or monitor what the TCM is doing.

    My 4L80E trouble codes

    yes, you Will get higher rpms if your TC is not locked up, your brake switch needs to be adjusted, I have a cheater cable I use to test my TC lockup, the 24v is always present on the connector, the switch opens and denies voltage to the TC solenoid, thus unlocking the TC when you come to stop.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Engine oil at every fill up…these older IDI diesels can burn quite a bit of oil, check belt tension while hood open, grab your fan blade and see if the WP shaft is failing, check the coolant level visually through the bottle with a flashligh…

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    4 letters come to mind….PMCS “preventive maint checks and services” I can’t stress to folks to perform post and pre-flight checks on these trucks.

    REV winch options

    The prob with ECV/REV trucks Is the lower radiator hose is in the way, so the OEM MM and Warn kits changed it all up to move the affected components. I personally like the rear winch option as it’s easy to install and really just makes more sense From a recovery aspect.
