    Are you checking the "remember me" box when you login? That fixed it for me.

    '86 m1009 with TOO much power possible bad ground?

    Someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but if the M1009 still has the stock wiring configuration for the 12v / 24v systems, then the passenger-side alt MUST be isolated from ground!

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    What is your CB mounted to? Is that the shelf from LMC? If so, how do you like it? I'm considering buying one. Thanks!

    CUCV alternator symptoms, diagnosis and fix.

    I think you are describing the output for the tach buffer connection that goes to the diagnostic port.

    They are usually green or tan or woodland camo. What else do you need? :grin:

    M1009 Antenna for CB

    Search is your friend. There are a few threads on this subject. There is even an antenna base / mast combo that does not require any cutting, and fits the CUCV antenna mount without any adapters needed.

    Printed TMs, Interested?

    I love having the TM's in PDF format. I would also like to have them in printed form, as I feel something is lost in the experience between reading / searching a hard copy versus the electronic versions. Besides, I don't like taking my computer into the "library". :-D

    cranks but won't start

    Mine has been starting fine on 6 working GPs. A bit rough at first when cold, but she always starts on the first go-round. Though I'm in SoCal, so cold is a relative term. I do use the half-pedal for the fast idle on the colder days.

    Where to put Speakers

    I've seen that in the LMC catalog... how does it mount? Not really interested in putting holes in if I don't have to. I've been looking at the shelf LMC has that uses the sun visors mounts as attachment points. Don't suppose anyone has experience with that one?

    um, its Wikipedia... can't you just edit it yourself and post new pictures? Isn't that what makes it a Wiki? User-edited content?

    Glow Plug process overhaul

    Your plan looks good to me, though I would do your Phase 2 first. And as a side note, the resistor bank on the firewall is supplied with 24v in the stock configuration, not 12v. The thread / post you linked to has the info you need for the 12v bypass. As for your questions, I can only say that...

    instrument panel causing these probs

    LEDs, or Light Emitting Diodes are, well... diodes... they only conduct in one direction. So, try reversing your probes to change the bias on the diode, and you should get a reading.

    M416 cargo trailer for M1009

    There has also been talk here of a directive from the military stating NOT to tow the M416 as you can't see it when you back up. I have not seen this directive, but if someone has it, please post it! As for me, I've decided to get an M101A2 for use with my M1009, and I'll just have to be...

    Smoke after glowplug swap

    Strange... I took my resistors out, and my truck still runs just fine... must be magic. The resistors are only used by the GP system, nothing else on the truck runs through those resistors. This has been covered many, many, many times here.

    m1009 glow care issue

    There are plenty of posts on how to do the GP push button conversion / adaptation. Your situation should be much simpler, just needing to wire the button to control the GP relay. As for why you'd want to add the GP controller stuff, its all personal preference / choice. Mine works, and I'm...

    m1009 glow care issue

    Ouch! I've seen complete GP system harnesses on one of those auction sites recently. There are probably members here that have, or can get, them in the classifieds section.

    It is supposed to clean up the tach signal taken from GEN1 and delivered to the ICE Diagnostic port.
