    MV Addiction filled. Reis the Beast M1078A0 is born

    I should have scrolled down and read your post before I chimed in. But yeah, it instantly flagged as suspicious when I saw it.

    MV Addiction filled. Reis the Beast M1078A0 is born

    Might want to look into that site before ordering. It's throwing red flags as being a scam site at every level. Website registration: On 18th April 2022, the Glanto shop was registered. Registrar: GoDaddy.com LLC was the registrar of the Glanto shop. Trust score: Glanto has a very poor...

    S-250 Camper

    I seal all the exposed foam areas like that with bedliner. I tested FlexSeal and while a similar product, the bedliner cures hard so is what I found to be better for the task. Just don't spray it on so thick that it the window/vent can't fit in the hole.

    M1083 Voltage drop and intermittent start issues found

    Guy on FB with an A1R just did this very thing (hooked up the batteries backwards). Now he has Christmas lights for a dashboard (not strobing in sequence, but just all flashing at once) ...and a bricked truck it seems. :(

    1083 AO Transmission fan

    You could always add a dummy light that confirms that the aux ran is also running with the main. Or you could just get out and check while underway. (be sure to film that)

    1083 AO Transmission fan

    1) 24v power wire to fan (mine has a pair of 24v Spal fans) 2) On/off toggle switch 3)??????? 4) Profit

    1083 AO Transmission fan

    You could always add a manual override and force it on when the truck is running/warmed up.

    Excuse my ignorance, but what are these units? I recognize all the rest.

    CTIS Transducer

    Yep, yep. Rgr all. That's why I just want to put it back to the OEM for the Arduino setup. I suppose the software could be simply adjusted here, but the goal here is to confirm it works on the A1R. We know it will, but one less rock in the cog if I put it back to OEM.

    Winch install question/issue

    I've probably shown you this before. I took a standard folding dog ramp (my neighbors actually gave it to me after their dog wouldn't use it) and I added a piece of angle iron to the top edge. Then on the truck I bolted a strip of 1' flat stock shimmed out 1/4" with standoffs. The angle iron...

    CTIS Transducer

    That's what I'm trying to determine. I know the upgraded one was 150psi and that the OEM was lower, but I don't recall how much. I didn't mention the OEM size on the video I made about changing them out. And I'm not finding the OEM info on other videos so far. Not sure the value difference...

    remote start cranking time?

    remote start cranking time?

    I'm pretty sure Sean from FB added a remote start to Able. I know I've seen the video of someone who did (and I think it was Sean). It was just one of those kit's off Amazon. Nothing that may adapt to your application, but it has been done.

    remote start cranking time?

    By my calculations, if you had spent that 20 minutes each day driving south you'd have resolved the issue of starting in the cold in approximately 65 days. ;)

    CTIS Transducer

    So a few years back I swapped out the OEM transducer for a 150psi version that fills the tires to 75psi via the CTIS system. My CTIS controller went tits up/brick and I now have an Arduino replacement from Plasa ready to install. I'm thinking that to get it to work correctly, I'll need to...

    remote start cranking time?

    And some trucks are a bit more finicky at starting in cold weather. How are you going to automate this with a timer? Your video, ya? ;)

    M1078a1 battery connection diagram help

    On A0 trucks it's not uncommon to have 2x 24v leads at the inboard left. If I recall, one goes to the starter and the other to the polarity protection box. They connect to the same terminal, and are often depicted as one cable in a lot of the diagrams. My A1R only has the one 24v cable in...

    S-250 Camper

    Getting there ! fiy, those heavy steel strips are there to reinforce for a lot of weight. Depending on what you plan to install in those locations, you can likely delete them. They aren't really structural beyond being there to support something heavy (like tool boxes, etc). Certainly won't...
