Truck missing bad
If I wasn't so pressured by the truck owner I would of had a perfect time to do a write up of the VP44 install I just done last week. :banghead:

Error Codes?

Normal EGT?
Sorry can't be done with my rig. 2 problems. [*]Idaho state laws limits towing speed to 65 MPH period. [*]ST trailer tires are designed for a maximum speed of 65 MPH. Most RV tire blow outs occur at 65 MPH and above. So I'm stuck at lower speeds.

Changing Thermostat
I normally add anti-seize to the bolts. No sealer needed.

Draining F/W Sep
In the beginning I was buying fuel at the local Mom and Pop places which was cheaper fuel. I only seen the WIF light once in the life of my truck ever since then I switched to Chevron, Maverik, Cenex fuels and never had any other problems. In 5 years of my AirDog I never drained the water separator and only found about 1 ounce of water. Never seen any water in the stock filter can since...

CB radio
I had a CB's and Fire radios both in my truck at one time which I mounted the radio directly to the cup holder on the driver side and mounted the antenna on the driver side fender with a custom made stainless steel bracket.

How would you describe this to someone else..
Heck... Install a Cummins 4BT and you wouldn't need all the winch and chain drives.

Learning from a buddy's misfortune...
Ummm... Even in the 1997 flood we are a long way from the river but we had a triple water fall behind the house. That's what flood out the guest house last spring. http://forum.mopar1973man.com/threads/5621-Spring-runoff

Calling all wiring guru's!
No issues. As for being hooked to the truck I left mine alone and just remember to pull the trailer line when camping. Nothing special that way there is no need for wiring mods. Not to mention I feel safer knowing that there is always power getting back to the RV batteries keep them charged all the time I'm rolling so if there was a need for the break-away switch to activate I know the RV batteries have been charged. But with a solenoid / relay in between the power source and the trailer bother me a bit.

That circuit is already covered by a 40A fuse in the PDC box.

Really? poor gas milage?
Confess Rogan... You've been out brake standing that truck haven't you? Boosted launches down the side streets?
-
won't start
Hmmm... Starter circuit is rather simple. The key triggers the relay in the PDC and has a fuse for going down to the starter. So for testing purpose unhook the brown wire on the starter and cover the end. Turn the key to start and check the starter fuse is it blown? If not then the starter has something internally wrong with the solenoid. But if its is blown there is a short in the brown wire between the relay and the starter solenoid.

ISX has a wonderful way of explaining the relay hook up. But I'll try. Looking at a relay. So in your case you want... 86 going to keyed hot lead in the truck. 85 going to body ground. 87 to the fuse lead. 30 going to the trailer plug. Also you want a heavy duty 30-40 Amp relay as well...

U joints
Every oil change I attempt to grease my front shaft up good. I sure don't want to change those two again...

NEED HELP, 98.5-02 year to year changes..
MAP sensors where change every year from 98.5 to 02. So was the pin out.2001.5 was the change over years for read disc brakes.2000 was the year they switched over to cam sensor only (IIRC - Please verify someone)
-
Calling all wiring guru's!
In the PDC (Power distribution center) under the hood should be a 40 amp fuse for the trailer that is what feed that 12V lead at the trailer plug on the truck. Other than that your going to have to wire in a relay to cut the power on that leg.

Ok... So I'm busted... UPDATE: Installing vB 4.2.0 Patch level 3. I think they gain entry through the Joomla and managed to hack the index.htm.
