    MEP831A moisture in the controller

    We had a brief 2 hr power outage today, I did not figure it would be too long so I got out one of the MEP831As It had been in the rain for several hours and it would fail immediately with an overload condition, before the load switch was even available I have been told this is due to moisture...

    Charger

    If there was a "dead short" all kinds of exciting things would be happening. How many volts from the output terminal of the alt and ground when running? How many volts from the IGN terminal on the alt and ground when running? Do you have a 60A alt? (2 belt grooves)

    Smart box

    The problem is that there is a 99% chance something else took out the resistor, replacing it will not likely help.

    air in fuel issues

    The IP has an internal pump that will kinda/sort of run the engine if the lift pump is bad, that is why you had a vacuum at the filter drain.

    My 4L80E trouble codes

    You can and should go ahead and troubleshoot that problem first if you plan on having a shop do all the work as they will not release the truck in that condition, the last I remember you are looking at a failed TCM. You could go ahead and put a new filter and fluid in the transmission, it of...

    electrical wire diagram

    Talk about pricey, I asked the local UPS store which does "print shop" work how much to have a manual I have scanned to PDF, 800 or so pages. $3.60 a PAGE!!

    My 4L80E trouble codes

    It common enough for any transmission to fail especially with a 19 year old at the wheel. The 2wd and the 4wd have different output shafts, the first thing one puts into a transmission is the output shaft so a complete disassembly is required to change it. I have actually seen much worse than...

    My 4L80E trouble codes

    No it is toast, any decent transmission shop can build that transmission, there are literally millions of them on the road.

    AC temp adjustment thermistor?

    I would still invest in a full set of gauges to make sure the high side was within range, the entire system only takes 4.6 cans of 12oz R134A CHEAP insurance. One of the problems with a system that sits for years is the compressor shaft seal dries out so you may not be out of the woods yet...

    Unidentified Unconnected wire behind engine

    Look at the tag carefully, they are not hard to read once you get the hang of it, more times than not the last digit is a letter.

    AC temp adjustment thermistor?

    Try to add some more and bring the pressures up it does sound like it could take another 12oz, but only add about 1/2 a can and let it settle out, your heater valve may be inoperative causing the vents to blow hot air although it is a mystery why some are cold. When I said fans I meant the evep...

    AC temp adjustment thermistor?

    If the numbers are off and adding a little does not start the needles going in the right direction then do not add any more. The pressure when not running is insignificant, it's like liquid propane the sitting pressure is entirely dependent on temperature.

    Fans on high 1500-1700RPM This is just a ball park chart but it should be close.
