Back yet again with an electrical problem
I did try that, forgot to mention it. Jumping the solenoid didn't do anything. I'm replacing master and slave so I planned on just bench bleeding it before I put it on.- emb2060

Back yet again with an electrical problem
Hi everyone. I'll try to make the background as brief as possible. My truck recently experienced sudden death--meaning I have no idea what happened. I was helping a friend move some stuff to storage. I put the truck ('86 C-30 flatbed dump truck) in neutral while sitting at a light. It then...- emb2060

Haha no idea, not my bike. Just something I saved to show my father in law. I have several, but that’s not something I’d do- emb2060

It isn’t, I’m barely getting voltage at the stud when the truck is running. I’m getting 12 volts when it’s not running on both the stud and the red wire in the plug. I’m getting 12 volts on the brown wire in the plug with the key on when it’s not running, but drops to 9 or so as soon as I plug...- emb2060

What I’m saying is that the brown exciter wire is supposed to be 12v to make the alternator charge, correct? It’s getting that voltage until I plug that connector into the alternator...- emb2060

Electrical Issues
I already checked the fuses I put in, they’re not blown. I got 15 amp fuses because the guy at O’reilly said he redid his old truck with inline fuses and the fusible links were 14 amp.

Electrical Issues
Alright guys, I've been reading on this forum for awhile but hadn't joined until now. I'm having electrical issues that I can't seem to trace and I figured this would be a good place to come for advice. I have a 1986 c30 with a factory PTO-driven dump bed (flatbed). About 2 weeks ago I went out...- emb2060
