    M923 turn signal issue

    Yup. The turn signal light would come on because 3 of the lights were lit up, but because the 4th was shorted, it was dark and wouldn't flash.

    M923 turn signal issue

    I had the same issue with my right turn signal. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't. I removed the lens covers from both lights and discovered the power wire to the socket had worn through the insulation on my front light, causing it to short.

    Is this the correct coil?

    Unfortunately, my M37 is still at frame as I picked up the M715 and it kind of took priority as it was closer to "done". Now that the 715 is acting right, I can get back on the M37.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I'm in the process of changing out torque rod bushings, and I have to say, this tool from Big Mike's makes ALL the difference when pressing them out/in. And while I wait for some more stuff to come in, I went ahead and stenciled Berthas registration on her so it can be seen more clearly by...
