    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!

    LED turn signal issues.

    That is what I do not understand, this should have NOTHING to do with the headlights, also when you switch to left or right turn signal the front and rear bulbs should do exactly the same thing, burn, flash or not as the turn signal switch has them tied together, makes no sense the rear would...

    LED turn signal issues.

    Did you try putting some load resistors on the rear lights so "simulate" standard bulbs, it probably would not take the full current an incandescent bulb would draw to work. For example a 50 ohm 25W resistor would draw only about .5A which might be enough to make the circuit work, or maybe even...

    M997A2 Ambulance

    Not amazing at all, just normal. They are tasked with removing parts and equipment not with preserving the value of the vehicle, once you understand that nothing they do surprises you or even disappoint you, it's just part of the used MV experience.

    Fan Clutch

    ALL HMMWV clutches are the same, only the fan and water pump are different depending if you have V belts or serpentine. (they turn the opposite direction) This of course excludes the REV.

    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

    Went for a short (45mi) jog this morning, took young Diggy Dog for her first joy ride, only to the gate and back, poor little Diggy Dog is just getting over a bout with PARVO She loves riding in trucks but I have not figured out how to keep her safe and comfortable in the DuraVee yet, her actual...

    Fan Clutch

    Yes you can remove the fan blade with the clutch on the water pump, put a LITTLE bit of penetrating oil on it and work the blade back and forth, you will have to put about 90PSI on the clutch hose to align the clutch bolts if you want to remove the clutch itself.

    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

    So you opted for the title VS a SF-97? please report back how that goes. You can register a former military vehicle by its military registration number, only that comes with all the restrictions TX antique plates come with.

    Just don't push those AZ half shafts to 3 digit speeds and you will be OK, Summit has them cheaper though

    M997A2 Ambulance

    Not sure about the last picture but the other two are for radio power and likely hot, trace them back to the battery box and disconnect them.

    CDR Valve question

    Been a long day, sorry. I think you are talking about #28, it would be helpful if you posted a picture of the "air housing unit" for the other question.
