    CTIS

    Yea the wire pin z was twisted with is probably ultimately connected to H. If so it will have 24v on it with switch on. It was probably the wire L was originally connected to. I will have to lookup what L is used for this afternoon to confirm, but on the 1078 schematic I believe L was...

    CTIS

    If Z was the free wire twisted with the other wire, I suspect it was twisted with the wire going to pin H(24V)? One way they made these units compatible with different vehicles is by how power is applied to the controller Via the harness. There are at least 3 different pins that can accept...

    Who's running dynamic tire balancing beads?

    I have seen a few reports of people running antifreeze, and it just disappeared over time. not sure how that works:)…

    Who's running dynamic tire balancing beads?

    They are where the tire side hose(smaller hose) connects to the wheel valve... they are fit in the port on the wheel valve where the hose attaches...

    Who's running dynamic tire balancing beads?

    The CTIS system already has in-line filters on the tire side of the wheel valves... i know people who are running them without issue. Because of the beadlock band I believe it would be very difficult for beads to fall/find their way into the hub mounted airpipe as it would act as a shield/roof...

    A Little Help Would Be Appreciated.....

    Well the loaded/switch on test is the most important. Voltage is never considered good unless tested under load... you should be able to do that by yourself, i do it by myself, hook up the meter and flip the switch...

    A Little Help Would Be Appreciated.....

    So have you run the volt meter tests at battery and power panel I described a few posts back? You seem to be just trying stuff without really identifying what is happening. I call this troubleshooting in a Vacuum, measure 12 and 24 to chassis ground at the batteries. With charged batts...

    ECO Hubs Who needs 3:07 gears?

    Your truck is a good example. Your torque has been bumped up a little, 860ft/lb peak, I think? but the differential drop from 3.9 to 3.07 cancels some of that torque out before it gets to the wheels, making it perform like a truck with 670ft/lb, or about 50ft/lb more than a 225hp 3116… that...

    ECO Hubs Who needs 3:07 gears?

    Yea the math does not work out. Did you try the switch settings for a cal number of 178? You saying 440 gives you good numbers compared to GPS really lets the smoke out of my nugget:) that calc number on the ametek chart is 1/2 of the frequency in hz @60MPH with a 16 pulse per rev driveshaft...

    ECO Hubs Who needs 3:07 gears?

    When you say “mine was 356”, was that what your original settings were, or thats what you calculated using their formula?

    ECO Hubs Who needs 3:07 gears?

    I don’t think you are going to find anyone who doesn’t see an overall improvement. Engine torque to vehicle thrust is a pretty well defined area of study, and the math and calculations well proven. All the math supports this as an improvement. If people were having decreases in performance...

    Lighted indicator display illuminates in chase pattern

    In writing something to someone else IRT a LBCD it occurred to me that a mis-wired LBCD might also cause your issues. there are 6 major lines, Battery, Alternator and Cab cables for both 12 and 24V. If the alternator cables somehow got put on the LBCD “load” terminals instead of with the...

    2002 Stewart Stevenson 1083a1 transmission issues

    Well you can just bypass it. It has 4 terminals 24v battery, 24v load, 12v battery, 12v load. It replaced the original polarity protection device and still has diodes between the battery and load terminals. The LBCD added the function of monitoring the alternator output voltage and RPM to...

    No, the lbcd isnt really in the circuit between alt and batts, alt and batt cables are connected together on the batt terminals of the lbcd as a tie point...

    ECO Hubs Who needs 3:07 gears?

    On the A0, the speedometer is driven by a pulse signal(pulse per mile/pulse per shaft revolution) signal from the transmission That is derived from a sensor in the transfer case counting the gear teeth on the 26 tooth main output gear. I have not been able to determine if this signal is...

    Yep K11 is one of those places where you have to have a 5 pin relay..

    Lighted indicator display illuminates in chase pattern

    ok, I dont see fully charged batts dropping to 5v in one hour under normal properly connected operating conditions… I will say it one last time, do a 100A battery load test AT the alternator terminals(truck off) on both the 12 and 24v circuits. you do have 12 and 24 AT the alt right? This alt...
