    PURCHASED HMMWV WITH NO MODEL YEAR ON DOCUMENTS - TEXAS

    They kinda screwed you! I would say take a screen shot of the first post of the serial number thread but it does not go to 500K Hopefully someone will come up with something useful.

    '86 M998 No Wait Light, Nothing

    The reasnon I asked if the headlights worked is because if you have NOTHING it is unlikely the EESS box. Leaving the run switch on should not normally burn up anything.

    '86 M998 No Wait Light, Nothing

    Do the headlights work? Did you disconnect the batteries while charging them? Randomly replacing parts is a poor way to fix an issue, you will learn much more by actually troubleshooting the system.

    Starter removal

    That is not a cruise control, it normally will not hold the throttle open far enough to be useful as a cruise control. It is exactly what he needed as it is a high idle control. MOST people do not take the time to read the operator TM and that is their loss.

    M1045 a2 ticking noise

    Since it comes and goes, especially that it gets quiet at idle sounds like a lifter to me, my 58 Pan head does the same thing, drives me nuts....

    Hope all is well Dutchess County New York

    This will be interesting, the problem I see right away is they are going to expect to see the same number on his proof of ownership (SF-97)

    How many miles at highway speed do you have on this engine?

    ARGH! FlexPlate Advice Please...

    That starter does not need a front mount, there is not enough weight hanging off of the nose piece to warrant one. It would be a challenge to just engage the bendix without cranking the motor. I would start with no shim and have someone activate the starter while you watch to see that the bendix...

    HMMWV Speedometer Shenanigans

    As Mullaney said pull the cable off of the speedo then pull the center of the cable out and grease it from tip to tip with bearing grease and carefully put it back in, helps to have 4 hands involved.

    LED turn signal issues.

    I think they are all wired "backwards" it is fairly well known that a regular LED lamp will not work as a turn signal indicator.

    Why won’t my doghouse clip closed

    Again they have to be installed and ADJUSTED correctly OR the cover is not correctly fitted,, if it takes allot of force to twist it in place it is not adjusted correctly, DZUS fasteners are rather fragile but there are places they work better than anything else. I have all these tools and it...

    Rookie here! Purchased a Hmmwv Jan 2, 2020

    I just had the second AZ half shaft fail without reason (did not over speed this one) so I can no longer recommend or support the Chinese imports, it seems they had a bad run of CV boots, this one split right along the mold seam, the second one to do so to me, actually the other one was from...

    Why won’t my doghouse clip closed

    Google DZUS and see how they are installed and adjusted, to do it correctly you need some special tools, I have one vehicle with DZUS fittings all over it so the tools are worth while to me.

    LED turn signal issues.

    You do understand that the LED lights have a separate ground wire unlike the incandescent lights that ground through the mounts yes? the front turn signals might be seeking ground through the "parking" lamps which are powered removing that path when the headlights are on...

    LED turn signal issues.

    Sounds like you have a grounding issue to the front end to me, like the front turn signals are grounding through the head lights so when thay are on the path to ground is not there. weird!
