M1079 Completley Dark after pushing start Button

[fjdedrick]

I have new 24v relays. The 12v ones are over the counter at auto parts store. You can use blade fuses in place of the breakers if needed.

Suprman... Your name fits! How do I get the 24v?

I have the solenoid jumped out of the fuse panel. Shoved a blade in to the "Rotating Light" position... Truck is running outside right now and everything seems to work. Going to let it idle for a while while to get the batteries charged and keep it warm for later.

Email will atpawnking dotcom. If the batts are weak its best to just replace them.

That’s why he’s my go to guy anytime I need parts. His expertise and free advice are beyond compare. If it weren’t for him and NDT my truck would likely be a lawn ornament.

Fixed!!

What started with loose battery cables ended with me putting a 12 volt relay in the Start Inhibitor hole.

I tore the entire dash apart and ran some jumpers to get it to run... The relay got really hot. That was it raising its hand!

Reexamine the panel diagram changed a few around and now I'm totally good!!

Now I have a sweet multi meter, two jump packs and a sweet machine!

Thanks to everyone here for inspiring enough confidence to get this thing back in action. Learned A LOT already!

Once I get my M1079 roadworthy we'll have to get together.
What are your plans for the box?

My family also roasts coffee...

I told my wife about your rig..

She told me to not even think about it

Gotta find a clean M1010, and try that angle.

Since that's commercial use, doesn't that require a CDL in Ohio?

I dont see it weighing over 26k, truck and coffee.

I have a Class B... But don't belive it's required. It doesn't reach the threshold of 26,000lbs
