    Hahaha thanks!! I try to lean as much as I can on my own before asking. “No question is a stupid question” unless it’s a question I can answer myself by some simple research. I located the ends of the cable and looked at adjusting the slack out. Although in my mind adjusting is a band aid. I...

    In the chart it looks like it’s 30(S?) and it’s to the starter. The other is 20A and is blackouts. The good news is I don’t see anything that I fried that was involved with fuel delivery. The other good news is it’s probably mechanical and related to the cable or the pump/filter or both...

    When my truck shorted out it fried 2 grounds. Not knowing what to do I unplugged the box. I was told that if the battery is connected and the box is unplugged before unhooking the battery it’s 99% likely it’s done. From advice of others I decided to change it out for the new smart start box. The...

    From what I heard my old box was one known to cause problems. I had a short and figured it needed to just start replacing things that may be a issue.

    I have disconnected my batteries while working on it. After I got everything hooked back up and got the blinking no starting I unhooked batteries again.

    Hello everyone. Last week I bought my first military vehicle. I got a Fort Meade National Guard M998A1. I’ve been a civilian Willys and Jeep owner for 20+ years. I’ve wanted a HMMWV since I was 7-ish, I’m 42 now. Anyway I’ve been working on all the small things like changing fluids and filters...
