    HMMWV vibration and noise when braking.

    Welcome to the SS forums! The geared drives have straight cut gears and do make a certain amount of noise. This is much more pronounced in vehicles with hard tops like the helmet top etc. Is this your first Humvee?

    Power steering /brakes strange noise

    That is definitely pump noise, be careful when you push hard on the brake pedal as you can blow out the seals in the hydraboost if they are a little weak. Also it is not a good idea to go all the way to lock on the steering while running as it causes a spike in the pump pressure. Do the...

    Power steering /brakes strange noise

    It could be the Cadillac valve, unplug it and see if the sound changes.

    M1123 parasitic draw. Solenoid?

    Well you can start by disconnecting things until you confirm the problem device. If the TCM power relay was stuck you should have a trans light on all the time. Start by disconnecting the batteries, then unplug the TCM harness at the TCM and then reconnect the batteries and test again.

    Lets talk winches

    I was speaking in general terms, most folks have a dual voltage 200A system, I would NOT install a 12V winch on one of those vehicles and certainly not on a 60A single voltage system. The cost of a replacement regulator would pay the difference in cost of a 24V winch over a 12V, several times.

    Lets talk winches

    I would not run a 12V winch, that would load the regulator well beyond its ratings.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    I would say if they are the correct type (uses two tabs) and it happens to line up with unused tabs, then I would reuse them, I would look very close to the used tabs and if I thought they were week I would go ahead and break them off so they would not "fall" off into the bearings. Of course I...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Now just like lug nuts I replace all the half shaft bolts and Nord lock washers on every Humvee I get, it is a good idea to inspect the flange threads as who knows what they have been through.

    HMMWV A2 vs A1 Starter Troubleshooting

    The STE/ICE bypasses everything, if that does not work, of course check to make sure you have 24V on M and that S has continuity to the solenoid start terminal (wire 74) If that checks out then you only have the heavy wiring from the batteries to the starter, the ground is just as important as...

    M1167 A/C trouble shooting

    HMMWV A2 vs A1 Starter Troubleshooting

    That would be upper case S (wire #74 to solenoid) and upper case M (24V), there are also some lower case terminals

    HMMWV A2 vs A1 Starter Troubleshooting

    The starter circuits are pretty much identical, have you tried jumping the pins on the STE/ICE connector? That would eliminate the neutral switch etc.

    M35/51

    I am grateful that I blocked up the M51 bed so it would drain, the bed looks pretty good but for a few holes in the sides.

    M35/51

    I am clearing brush to make room for some conex boxes and ran across my old M35/51, I parked it maybe 20 years ago and have not seen it in 10-15 years as it was reclaimed by the S TX brush. I carefully aired up her tires and managed to un-track her with the JD 310 backhoe. Lots of memories, when...

    Speedometer issue

    Same information, all they did was replace the cable with a sending unit.

    Speedometer issue

    No, you can start in TM 9-2320-280-20-2, 5-24. SPEEDOMETER DRIVEN GEAR MAINTENANCE and inspect if the gears are OK and if the gear is timed correctly.

    Hot & Cold air simultaneously from fron A/C vents

    It sounds like your heater water valve is not functioning

    Speedometer issue

    It is most likely the plastic gears in the TC, or the gear is simply not clocked correctly.
