    Mad max starter?

    Sorry man, didn't see that asked for a diagram until now. Do you still need it?

    New Regulators, New Motors, And Still Trouble Windows

    So I searched high and low for ANY thread that pertains to my issue to no avail... I have power windows, and have been fighting them since day 1. Both driver and passenger sides got new window regulators with new motors. I greased the channels for the nylon rollers. Both doors got new windows...

    Mad max starter?

    I wired up a few kill switches in mine. Really simple actually. I have one visible momentary push switch as well as a SPST switch wired into my momentary kill switch. The hidden one needs to be turned on for the momentary button to work, and visa versa. Under your dash, there is a purple wire...

    Attempted Theft

    Thanks man. I ordered the new ignition cylinder with new keys, so hopefully it comes quick so I can get her up and running. Thanks for the heads up. How exactly does that lock guard work? I've never seen one before. Is it something that I have to take off all of the time before starting my...

    Reverse Lights

    Bigred it sounds like the previous owner must have bypassed them somehow. Follow your wire that goes to your reverse lights (light green) and see where it takes you. You're going to need to go through that neutral safety switch for properly working reverse lights. If you can't track it, wire...

    Attempted Theft

    Hey yall, Someone tried to steal my damn truck last night. Forced his way in, and ****** up my ignition. As pissed as I am about it, I was being a little too trusting. Thankfully, with the cryptic method to starting my truck, I'm pretty sure he was unable to get it running. But now, I need...

    6.2 Fuel Leak

    Hi yall, I noticed a wet spot under my RH fuel tank the other day, and got down there to investigate. I noticed a small diesel leak, coming off the underside of the tank. I tried to search for the source, but to no avail. Anyone have some tricks for tracking down a fuel leak? Or any specific...

    Reverse Lights

    Chengny, you are the MAN. Thank you for sourcing those documents. Found the wires, rewired the plug and finally I've got fire to the reverse lights! Do you have any idea what that other plug I posted is for? Everything seems to be working, so I really have no idea what it's to.

    Light Bar + Switch Panel

    Also, if you're just looking for some more light output, you could get flush mount led pods ($30 on amazon) to sit in your bumper. Easy to install and wire up. You could even run it into an existing hot wire, so you won't have to run a separate switch. As for a cheap(er) light bar, look an...

    Light Bar + Switch Panel

    Here is my switch panel. From. Left to right: fog lamps, side lamps, light bar, and glow plugs. To the right of that is air compressor. Made from simple L brackets. I had a light bar mounted above the windshield too. Wasn't a fan of it, so I replaced it with cab lights. If you do mount a light...

    Turn signal blinkers not working

    So you installed the actual LED flasher as well? Or just the flashing bulbs? What kind of LEDs did you buy? When I replaced my blinkers with LEDs, I had to use a sautering iron to "build up" the connections on the bottom of the bulb to make them fit in the socket correctly. Once I built it up...

    Reverse Lights

    Thanks for the reply. I got up there and there is certainly nothing plugged into it... but isn't that was gives juice to the starter? I found a male plug that's not going to anything under my dash, but I'm not sure if it's the proper plug or not. Took pictures, maybe yall can help me identify.

    Reverse Lights

    Hey yall, Haven't had backup lights since I bought the truck. To start, its a 700r4 trans. I've been diagnosing the problems as I've read from other threads that I've searched. I tested at the rear harness, and I get nothing. I tested before the harness, and still, nothing. The wires copper...

    Cab Light Install

    Howdy Fellas and Fellettes, Finally got around to installing my cab lights. The previous owner installed a God awful light bar mounted right above the windshield (seen in the first picture). As you can tell, I'm not much of a fan of light bars mounted above windshields. But anywho, I wanted...
