In an overall view of what you have posted is it possible to check the alternator by removing the 12 volt leg from the alternator, starting the truck, and measuring the voltage at the 12 post of the Alternator? That is, if is 28.2 vdc at the 24 volt side it should be by theory 14.1volts at the...
Well, thank you for the response.
The instruction was invaluable. The rebuke was noted. And to answer your question, No I hadn't looked in the TM's but now I know in which issue to look.
Thank you Guyfang,

Thank you for the response and more diagnostic clues. The voltage at the battery of 12.4vdc was the same at the alternator/ The SCRs are probably a rectifier. Please clarify/ I will check the other things and get the year of the truck./ I was wondering about the polarity box and now I know I...
Gentlemen: About 2 weeks ago I had a generator load up with water on the fuel side/ So I removed filters, drained the injection pump, cleaned the lines and checked my diesel supply ie I cleaned the tank/ So I went to start it and it seems I lost prime and need to replace the quad rings at the...
Gentlemen; I have a charging problem and it goes like this/ The Battery configuration is 2 group 31 batteries/ The system has been very functional for over a year/ Now I have the 12vdc side draining while it's running and my charge rate on the 24vdc side is acting like the parasitic draws we use...
Thank you/ I guess I'll pull it down and take a look. Next task I have is the wiper linkage and that looks like a real chore. The manuals are really difficult sometimes to get the information you are looking for. Happy Thanksgiving.
I'm once again turn to the folks that have worked on these critters. I have a PTO winch that will not work. The problem is electrical. All the switches are good, good power source, and the PTO is engaging and the light on the panel shows it. The problem I am having is finding the connectors to...
Sorry to take so long answering.
This is not an involved question but the answer takes some thought and time because this was the early part of my search.
First off my board wasn't bad it was a bad ground. The question I would ask you now is do you have the electrical schematics for the A1?? The...
So here's what I got going. Thanks to Ronmar I have a working Hydraulic Control Box and Air Pump. So I set it up to test flows and what I speculated would happen when I flowed oil. The Controller worked great and gave me a platform to work from for when I get my other Box home I can figure out...
I am unclear if this is sarcasm or if you have one to sell? I take it is sarcasm but...? If any one has a Controller Box perhaps an extra that they would like to part with then I am most certainly interested! LOL! I would say smart ass but some might be offended.
Thank you for responding.
I feel no air flow out the T1 or T2 return lines but there is a bit of pressure flowing out the one makes pilot. Does this seem right?
So here are my latest findings and questions.
I pulled everything out of the box and used brake clean in a pressurized can and air to make sure all passages were clean. Pulled the 2 little orifices in the back of cab raise and lower and the spare tire raise and lower. Filters were clean.
The...
Not disagreeing with you but why did then the commercial industry quit using wedge brakes?
If the commercial side isn't using them it certainly won't me profitable for them to keep making them unless you have someplace that is using the trucks commercially. Kinda like Korea using M35's. A lot of...
CoachGeo, doesn't look like it got back to. Vintage Iron's post sounded like he knew it could be done. Is he still an active member. I am not as critical as I used to be about wedge brakes as long as the adjuster stay working. According to my vendors and what I read they discontinued wedge...
