Weird part... Polling is turned on already for the Cummins swap area. Let me dig a bit on this. Should be available during the first post as a switch for polls.

CANBus was left for the "Cummins Insite" tool for the diagnostic connector. 2003 The CANBus was introduced to the 3rd Gens. We are just in the testing stage of this with the VP44 communications.

Could you post this in the article section with more detail on how you made the trays and hold downs. I'll bonus you $10 for the article. 🤑

Im using a reset able 150 amp breaker on my setup and working great. Protects the electrical from a dead short. Yes alternator diodes can and will short out at times it just best to have a way to keep it from melting the wiring and starting a fire.

Like us we want to travel east to catch up with some members like @Doubletrouble @jlwelding @towhungerford and a few others that were there for me during my cancer battle. We will see soon.

Sorry. Been on the road this last week with limited cell service. But try the crayon trick on the next bolts or nut problem.

Today we are checking out of our RV space and heading back home with our cache of goodies we picked while in town. This has been a wonderful experience and teaching both of us what we need to travel on the road to see some of you. For a bench test I think we can get started traveling state to stay soon. As for makeup artistry wife and I enjoyed all the great comments as we been in town. Been nice for both us to escape the mess at home and take a break away from problems, phones, projects, etc.

CANBus is right near the ECM typically used for tuner connection. Wire map above covers both the CANBus and CCD bus. CANBus is used for the VP44 injection pump and tuner data.

I can say engine oil temperature will show timing. Ive managed to keep Beast with oil temperature below 180°F even with coolant temperature ranging 197 to 210°F. Simply put if your timing is off oil temperature will rise to coolant level or higher. Now if I look back at all this time on DAP 150HP 7x0.010 injectors popped at 320 bar. Im at 504k miles and still got 6 to 7% engine load at idle. Now understanding even more about tuning. This works for Beast because of the wear on the injectors. As your injectors wear they start popping early as the spring tension loosens up. There is no way to build a tune and not have to retune over from weather change, wear on the injectors, fuel cetane levels, etc. I've got the RV in tow and gross weight closer to 17,500 pounds. Oil temperature staying in check most ive seen was on Whitebird grade at 1,200°F EGTs and oil temperature stay right at 180°F. Can anyone catch me?

As for the selt belt light take the two wires under the driver seat and twist together and light is permanently disabled.

Try heating the bolt nut and trying to melt a crayon in there. Ive seen this trick and not had a chance to try it yet. Shop still missing yet. (Shop 404 error)

Wife and I took the RV and headed to Lewiston Idaho for shopping and a bit of down time. Ive had my first problem on my trip my passenger headlight finally blew the bulb. Come to find out Lewiston doesnt even have and D2H bulbs for HID headlights. Im going to order new ballast and bulbs for Beast from Amazon. https://a.co/d/0hjxRZNE Upgrading from 35w ballast to 55w ballast and changing from 5000k to 6000k bulbs. Finding a bulb with the right connector is tough.

Sorry been on the road limited cell service. My suggestion at this point I would consider contacting Auto Computer Specialist and have the PCM and ECM tested. Something is wrong if the wait to start does light up, fuel pump not bumping at key on. Then the PCM creates the CCD bus so. Wiring on the CCD would need to be checked for sure. Bias voltage is not correct even after removing modules.

After many little mistakes like me forgetting my ostomy supplies. Trip home. Then back to camp. The last blog was easy 48 miles. We left Whitebird Idaho and got into Lewiston Idaho. Climbing grades like Whitebird Grade 7%. Oil temperature barely touched 180°F even though EGTs 1,100 to 1,350°F as my set limit but touched 1,400°F once. Enging coolant stay 205 to 215°F most of the climb. As we can down grade the oil temp cooled of back to 172°F. Beast is doing good but tripped a P0341 but the light went back out. Im grabbing a new cam sensor while in town.
