Maybe not. He has one of the two WTEC plugs, just splice matching color wires (solder with heat shrink, no crimp connectors), find the missing WTEC connector, same. Then the behind the dash harness, he has a cut-off of that as well, seems like armed with the schematic diagram and a test meter...
Studying the driver's instrument cluster photo, the harness coming from the transmission with the colored wires branches into two as is required for the WTEC II ECU. I think you have the right one.
All of those mechanical deficiencies will take a half day to fix. Dead batteries are to be expected.
The only reason I would hesitate is if the rust you describe is actual holes in the metal.
Quite a few parts trucks out there. If everything else on the truck looks good, I would not buy an entire truck to get harnesses that will fit in a large flat rate box (maybe?). Just keep in mind that it's always a possibility that this truck was brutalized because there was something...
You may have already done this, but I would start by contacting a global retailer such as Green Mountain Generators to gauge demand for your product and see if they could retail the boards to their customer base.
Ouch it got the super axe whacker treatment. I say forget trying to sort out the whacked harnesses, get take outs FROM A 1998 to 2000 model truck. He's missing all the transmission control keypad and brainbox, which is all integrated in the harnesses. You could easily get the engine cranked...
Looking good in the engine bay and the rest of the paint looking good as well.
Haha I always figured the multifuel engine would be like the cockroach, still running after all other engines dead and gone.
See if any connections get really hot after extended cranking. That indicates high resistance and could be the reason for your issue. The slave connector cables bypass the cables that connect to the batteries.
The Cannon connector the points upward from the start box in the engine compartment is known to get corroded between the wire and the terminal resulting in all kinds of bizarre things like you described. It will ohm out good, but not pass an electrical load.
Hello, welcome, good luck in restoring democracy in your country. You are correct, that unit is very early 1960's. I did a Google image search for "Wisconsin MBKND" and sure enough there are pics of a similar unit and ebay listings for parts. At 1500 watts, added to the complete...
