    M1097 (1986) not charging.

    It looks pretty Nasty inside. The funny thing is that the cannon plugs and receptacles are great. The rest of the truck has virtually no corrosion, so this must have just had a steady drip of water on it over the years. So is the best place to buy one from CAMO, do they have a website??

    M1097 (1986) not charging.

    Thanks for your help, I just checked and I have less than a volt on 5A and I would say that PCB is probably horrible inside. I'm going to take a look anyway, but can you suggest anywhere to get a good one for an old 6.2 1097??

Is there any way to wire this without...

    M1097 (1986) not charging.

    My Heater blower does not run, but I thought that was another problem that I was going to address at a later date (not a lot of use for a heater in Arizona) but is the relay somewhere that I can access it, or is it inside the magic box??

    M1097 (1986) not charging.

    Good day All, I am new to the group, having just acquired a 1986 M1097. I've been working though a few bugs that it had before I could take it out on the road, but there is one that has me stumped because I dont understand the system well enough. It has 2 fresh (fully charged) batteries and a...
