That is correct. The display indicates the highest available range.

Had a chance to try out the system today with temps spontaneously soaring to 90 degrees out of nowhere. Performance was excellent - within about 15 minutes of starting my drive the interior surfaces of the (non insulated) cab were cool to the touch and temps were quite comfortable.
No one...
If this happens to be an A1R then it's likely the MMDC pressure transducer (common problem) but since you say you replaced a Sensor I'm guessing you have the discreet gauges.
leaking from where? It is considered normal for these to release an aerosol from the vent of MIL-PRF-5606 when in operation.
That said it's pretty straightforward. Use a large vise if you have one big enough to put the pump in when disassembling and reassembling. Or could probably use a bar...
These are amazing. See my review in the discussion forum thread:

Beyond like. This is an absolute game changer. This changes everything. It rolls back the cost of driving these to pre-pandemic cost levels. 32% increase in fuel economy. That's absolutely HUGE in the world of fuel economy gains.
Mind = Blown. 🤯
Ok back from the mileage test run.
Conditions were:
53 degrees (F)
Interstate 5 from the Aurora Flying-J Truck Stop RV pump #26 to center of town in Lebanon Oregon, and back. 118 miles round trip.
Both vehicles used the same pump (same ground angle) before and after the test run and both were...
I am on a 112 mile round trip (at the halfway point now eating lunch) with my friends 2003 M1078 A1 following right now. We both filled out tanks at the same pump to the same level and will do so again at the end of the test. His truck is screaming to keep up with me at 56-57 mph and cycling the...
The whole drivetrain, especially the engine, really feels like it's a lot happier not screaming at redline. My radiator fan kicked on once last night and it was much quieter and ran for less than a minute before cycling off. After doing 80 mph on the freeway the hubs were still cold to the...
Installed!
Ok so as expected these hubs are total game changers. With my C7 uprated to 370/931 I honesty don't notice a significant difference in acceleration but the whole experience is smoother without the reduction hubs. If anything I think it's faster off the line but I haven't corrected...
Apple's walled garden software ecosystem and anti right-to-repair practices I find particularly insulting. At least on the PC side you can choose to run whatever software you want including other operating systems and no one is going to disable hardware features or prevent you from using non-OEM...
I've never heard of that. You might consult the wiring diagrams and see if you can discern any interaction.
If you own one of these and you desire/plan to troubleshoot and repair it yourself then you need to get the proper tools. And IMHO the disembodied hand of Steve Job's ghost can stay the F...
Yes if you can find a CAT dealer that will touch it. Some will and some won't. None of the ones in my area would return calls or didn't want to touch it because it's in an Army truck. Any heavy duty diesel shop should be able to scan it or you can buy a scan adapter and get the software and do...
It has a standard J1939 port next to the remote battery disconnect switch on the driver's left kick panel. Any heavy duty truck adapter that speaks J1939 can be used with CAT Electronic Technician software to interface with the engine and pull codes, etc.
24v - the wiring runs directly to the batteries and feeds 24v and ground bussbars. The fuse from the batteries is 80a, and the three fuses for the power feeds are 50a each (pulling from the 80a fuse). The fuses are sized to protect the wire and don't represent the load. The wires are pretty...
Exactly. And a 14 AWG with a 20a fuse supply will blow the supply fuse before the internal 30a.
It's a non issue in my opinion and I wouldn't bother moving it off the board.
It's only 10.4 amps.... call it 12 amps with efficiency losses. This should be no problem for the wiring already running to the 24v ignition relay under the PDP. Run it with 14 AWG wire and a 20 amp fuse.
