    Hi guys, I bought an 06 5.9 3500 stock, manual 6speed with 241000 miles in January (at the time - 257000 now) , so I'm still not as familiar with it as I am my '01. When backing off the throttle going downhill (usually) I sometimes get the wait to start light appearing and the ten dings... BUT not loss of power (no limp mode). It does not seem to affect anything. Sometimes it clears after shutting down, sometimes not. I have a ODBLX with Torque and ALFAODB (altho I have not yet paid for that app), and no codes other than P0633 Skim key code show up. I also have a UltraGauge and monitor fuel rail pressure (about 7000 at idle, and never more than 20,000 at speed - which…

    I have a 2007 5.9 3500 in the shop with 95,000 original miles on it with only a U0164 fault in every module in the truck except in ECM and HVAC module. The truck has the airbag light lit and the HVAC function knob and A/C button inop. I tried a known good spare HVAC module with no improvement. I've determined the HVAC module is not getting power but would like to verify wiring is good before condemning the TIPM. Mitchell software doesn't have the wiring diagrams I need. Google and the articles on this site don't have much info on either module. Is there a place I can find the diagrams I'm looking for?

  3. Good evening Gents!Today we have a new UDC Pro - RT software release for you.http://smartyresource.net/forum/showthread.php?1017-UDC-Pro-RT-Release-2-27-16&p=5080#post5080Thank you!

  4. Trying to rebuild a 6.7L in an 08. Been trying to get rod and main bearings, head gasket set, lower gasket set, and rings.. Been trying since June. Everyone lists parts as "available", but when you order, suddenly, there's no inventory... Apparently, Clevite 77, Mahle, etc, are hoarding their Cummins stock for some reason.. It's aggravating as hell..

  6. This is just a quickie fix for a customer that came to me asking if I could fix there A/C & heat the blower would randomly work or not work. Yeah I started at the wrong end testing the TIPM first which I found out everything was working properly. Then I moved to the blower motor itself. After removing the blower motor from the HVAC case then everything made sense. Check out the Quick TikTok. As you now see that TikTok videos are now rendered properly on the website software. There will be more of these in the future.

  11. Just throwing this out there for those who do not know that all new brake pads must be "Burnished" or worn in for ultimate brake performance. Coming from the heavy mining, construction and ag equipment side of the world this is a common "Must Do" procedure on all dry brake pads be it drum or disc but you all most likely do not know that it should be done on ALL vehicles with drum or disc brakes. There are different ways of doing it but all have the same results. rather than typing it out I will just post up a couple different procedures. Enjoy and hopefully you all learned something new and hopefully it will lead to safer braking for everyones sake. If one …

    I have a friend with a 08' 6.7 CTD and he is looking to some exhaust and program mods. He has been having some local guys saying that he needed to install a fuel rail plug to increase his fuel pressure. He asked me and I had no idea what to tell him beings my truck isn't a CR system. Any info would be great.

    My Mom ask me if i could check out her truck its a 2005 with an birddog fuel pump straight pipe. It use to have an edge but took it off because it started causing problems. I read Mopars Article on the P2149 code and was wondering if there was a wiring harness map for the truck. The other 3 codes i was wondering if they may be in conjunction with each other? Im thinking a bad MAP sensor but not for sure, let me know what you guys think.
