Not sure of the details, but if the batteries are toast you can still get the engine started and be on your way. Very desirable when your taking fire. Especially when it is from your wife....and its 30 degrees below freezing...

If you are in an enviroment where there are oher Military Vehicles that are equiped with the NATO cable hookup, then it would be a bad idea to eliminate the resistors. They are there so that you can jump start your vehicle from another NATO cable equiped vehicle.

Yes, it is pretty simple. The reason for it is so that you can get jumped from a 24 volt truck thru the NATO cable. I suggest checking the glow plugs.

Wow. The relay is supposed to be 24v with a 12 volt coil which is controlled by the control card, I would suggest you read up on this. There is a lot of info in the stickies. other folks will chime in, be patient.

Not sure yet, and it may be more than one. My guess is that it is the rear wheels. I will have to do some more investigatin to determine which ones. I am in the middle of other crisis so it is going to be difficult. Please bear with me. Thank you very much for your response.

This is for the M1008 Could someone pleas help me figure out what to do or point me to the right part of the TM that deals with this. I just lightly tap on the brakes and I end up burning rubber. This is at very slow speeds. Less than 5 mph. Once it is running for a while it clears up a...
