As one of the people that keep track of the late model USAF trucks, yours is indeed a 1988 model. Makes it more valuable. that first part of the vin is 1024 check out this thread http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?79736-Late-Model-USAF-M35A2C-Registry

Time to take the unit apart. More than likely it is the voltage regulator.

GL no longer has the contract to sell trucks. What they have now is what was left over. GovPlanet.com now has the contract.

Plug the two pin plug at the alternator. Check the voltage on the red and brown wires. You should get these readings key off: red wire - 24v brown wire - 0v key in run position: red wire - 24v brown wire - 24v Make sure the plug and the two terminals are clean

You will need some 12ga fusible link wire to fix the sizzle. The Fusible Link 101 thread has all the details on how to replace it. I would guess that who ever replaced the starter decided that the support bracket was not needed so it was canned.

Great looking truck.

Read the CUCV Helpful Threads sticky. There is a thread dedicated to the starter run-on and replacement of the starter relay. Your relay is most likely stuck closed and your starter solenoid has bad contacts. Replace both.

So did you buy the radiators?

Switch the lights and see if the problem follows the bulb

This is what I have found. The 198210 relay is an Oshkosh part number. I can find no information on it. The 24008-BX Cole-Hersee unit is a 24v version of the relay. It is the wrong one. You need a 12v relay. There are many to choose from but a good one is the NAPA ST-85. Or the BWD S603 from...

Sweet looking truck. I really like the color.

Just an FYI. The TM 9-2320-289-34P parts manual has a breakdown picture of many parts of the truck, the starter being one of them. I am a picture guy. Show me a picture and I can usually tell you how something goes together. And I can usually tell is something is missing. So to answer your...

I am reading from your reply that you are still in the military and your unit has a CUCV that is not on their inventory sheet. You can not get anything directly from the Military. I don't think a CUCV that is "off the books" is worth a visit to Levenworth. YMMV

Alternators need to be rebuilt. Diodes in the tri-diode or the rectifier are mor than likely bad. While he is in there might as well rebuild all of it. The TM 9-2320-289-34 has a section for the rebuild

:doh: Helps if I read the rest of the post about the starter relay. That is what I get for trying to multitask

Are you sure the starter is installed and wired up?
