Sorry to take so long answering.
This is not an involved question but the answer takes some thought and time because this was the early part of my search.
First off my board wasn't bad it was a bad ground. The question I would ask you now is do you have the electrical schematics for the A1?? The...
I made a video of how I am diagnosing my Power Distribution Panel. Here is a link to YouTube and I welcome all critiques, comments, and suggestions
Thank you

On the board are numbers denoting what socket number is on the rear and with this there a diagrams telling what wires go into it and there location. Looking specifically for J302 but if someone had J301- J309 and wouldn't mind sharing them I would be pleased and could continue know exactly what...
I am going back to a discussion earlier in this thread that discussed the Power Distribution Panel on the 1083A1. I am wondering if anyone has one for sale? I think NDT showed me a picture of one to clarify what I had.
I am definitely becoming more intimate with this truck and I think becoming...
Dude, you are like my HERO!!! I haven't mastered how to give you brownie points for this on the site but be it known I have been looking for these schematics for a while. Went to National Guard, they gave me everything they had but as far as they went was to the "10" Operators Manual.
If you...
It has been a while since I last wrote on the electrical issues. If I ever get bored with life I go and work on the 1083A1. I can repair a problem and then close the door on the cab, come back a day later, and I'll have a new problem.
I got the turn signals working, the horn is now working and...
LOL! Love the encouragement dingleberry. LOL Nobody has fessed up to having a schematic or a workshop manual. The auction will probably be over by the time I find one but I will pursue. Have a great Memorial Day and thanks to all who have served.
An update on what I have accomplished
After checking Turn Signal Switches and finding power to work them/ After finding the horn and testing that/ I had to go on to some other business for a couple of weeks and upon my return I found my truck would not start nor fire up any lights/ Proceeded to...
I did check for continuity and breaking continuity and the switch appears fine. I can even see that I have power in on the switch on the flasher side because I get a blinking on that leg. No sound from a flasher so could be electronic. Stimulated the wires designated to the flashers, marker...
If they are not on the board, where are they? I have dismantled quite a bit and frustrations are looming. I know in the center of the dash were electrical connections as per 1078 but did they slip any components in there? Thank you for your time
I am assuming that the 1083 has a relay for the horn because the size of the wire I don't think would support 12vdc or 24vdc very far on distance. There is no relay on the board for horn. I was using the 1078 schematic for reference and mode of thinking and since that is not pertinent to the...
To clarify my question. If there is only one board where are the components on the truck. Those components at this time are the horn relay and the turn signal flasher?
Where then sir, are the other boards located? And the solder issue? Was that at the connections on the printed Circuit Board or just wherever they us solder? Thank you for your time and information.
