There is a starter solenoid fuse in the PDC. There is a starter solenoid relay in the PDC. Then when in the start position the key switch should be giving power to the ECM, PCM and VP44. See the switch with the light blue lead than is the lead back into to the dash fuse panel for fuse 11.

I don't know of many that actually torque to spec for lines. I no longer even worry about it because you find that you can seal thes line with little torque at all. Just make sure the injector hold down is the LAST thing you tighten. NOT the first thing...

Pull the injectors and have them tested. If they are low you can have them re-popped and flow matched. 90% of the time injectors are the cause of weird misfires. I've had 3 set of injectors drop below 260 bar and they start doing weird things. idle misfire hot, stalling after long haul at stop or lights, typically no smoke with it. Even my stock injectors after 150k miles still ran fin but the lowest injector was 260 bar and all 6 where idling fine and drive fine but low in power and supper low in MPG. (Bad spray, too much large droplets). Hence how I found that pencil injector MISSING a hole. Pull them all and had the spray pattern checked. Sure enough its missing a hole and injector had to be replaced. Case C580 pencil injectors. #2 was phyiscally missing a hole and only had 3 holes. Bad spray pattern from the Case factory back in 1984... Yes weird crap does happen and some just live with it. Again pull the injectors and have them tested. Another Story is @pepsi71ocean he bought a set of 100 HP injectors and after 28k miles the pop pressures dropped to 280 bar which is still a fail. Bottom end is 293 bar. After pop testing and resetting the injectors now his truck is running good and way less smoke he also increased to 320 bar (if I'm not mistaken).

Shift collar detent holds it there. Shift fork just moves it into place of 2nd gear. It up to that detent to hold the shift collar.

Are you running oversized tires? That number will be worthless. You'll need a GPS to track mileage correctly. MPG number have to be done with either GPS or with a calibrated speedometer that is verified.

Check the main shaft bearings. If the main shaft can move forward to back even a little bit then the main shaft can kick it out of gear. Most normally the detent holds it in place. The usual reason for bouncing out of gear is mainshaft bearing are wore.

Used the same fitting through out my gauges. Boost and fuel pressure.

W-T ground wire mod done? Did you attempt to adjust your APPS? Please say no.

Injectors are wore out most likely. What does the engine load shown from live data tool at idle? If below 3% then the injectors are wore out.

Extra ground between batteries will not change anything. NOT Required. I did the testing on that and there is ZERO change to any ground function. No change in ground cable voltage. Even checked with jumper cables. Been without the extra battery ground cable for 2 years now. No issues. The stock cable are plenty big enough. Nothing should be tied to the battery cables. The only change I got is the charge lead on the passenger cable and the driver side is the ground for the ECM and VP44. If you need power for other thing used the stud in the PDC and the body for ground. Zero reason for the fuel pump lead on the battery.

Mine is a single air horn trumpet it is mount below the engine fan on the frame. Just need to replace the lil 12V air compressor. I filled the old one with salt from the road and killed it in 3 months.

Guessing and hoping the code to go away isn't going to happen low volt code means there is 5V problem or wiring problem returning the signal back to the ECM. Possible Causes Other DTCs Boost Pressure Sensor 5-volt Supply Circuit MAP Signal Circuit Short To Ground MAP Signal Circuit Short To Sensor Ground MAP Sensor Intermittent Wiring Problem ECM Do the diagnostic to find out which problem.

Now if you did the D2S lens then it would of been even bigger difference. D2S lens cast more light than the H1 Mini.

Yup. The engine runs great he started to use it and the rear axle started to bind up. I'm researching how much it would be to change a rear axle, or pull it out for a shop to rebuild. Might tell him to load it up on a trailer and send it to Lewiston, ID.

Physically missing the hole. Never was machined and missed. 5 guys looked at it and its missing not plugged.

I was the first to find this flaw in this tractor. Its a 1984 Case C580 backhoe. Number 2 injector was misfiring kind of. We pull the pencil injectors out to find number only had 3 holes and missing its 4th holein #2 injector. (Personal Trophy) Owner said its been in his father construction company and now he's using it for his construction. I'm the only one that found this rare one with three holes and not spraying right at all. Even did a quick valve lash at .012 Intake and 0.014 Exhaust. The actual size of the injector is just about the same as a standard #2 penicil. Holes are very tiny. Barely see the one hole here.

Look at it this way the the ECM should control the lift pump for safety. If your in a accident with a key hot pump then the pump will not know to shut down because the engine has died (impact damage) which now could have a fire up front after batteries or electric shorts. The lift pump will continue to feed the fire will you burn alive in the cab possibly.

Per bulb.

Just like a found out not exactly fitting but shows how things can change. I had job up in Anatone WA doing a injection pump on a Case C580 backhoe. The fly weight spring had failed and it would barely idle. Pulled the injection pump sent it to Lewiston, ID (Idaho Diesel Tech). They rebuilt the injection pump. Next week we went up and installed the injection pump. Got it fired up the backhoe and it was smoking bluish white warming up. Talk with the owner a bit and he said its never smoked before. We called Idaho Diesel Tech we both agree to pull the injectors. We found out that #2 injector is physically missing a hole. So the other 3 injectors are four hole injectors but number 2 is physically missing one hole. Case C580 pencil injectors... No one would of uncovered this mystery until the injectoion pump was rebuilt and had good line pressures once again.

PCM is a the master computer. It controls the entire CCD network. Cruise control Transmission control Charging system Automatic trans shift controls Fuel gauge Volt gauge CCD Network Then next in line is the ECM... Which controls all the Engine functions. Tach signal Oil pressure Coolant temp Fueling VP44 (main function) Then the instrument cluster is the bus bias... Required module to set the bus voltage bias of 2.49 and 2.51 Volts. Central timer handles security, cab functions like heat seats, stereo controls, etc. CCD network allows all information to be shared over just two twisted wires. Remember the PCM is the primary computer the ECM is the secondary computer.

Yup. The green and blue are control by tach signal so the engine must be running to measure. the blue lead is typically +12V hence why the protection fuse for it. Prevent PCM damage from a shorted alternator. The green wire is a variable ground to control the charge rate vs battery temperature which the PCM checks and adjust accordingly. I do not suggest external regulators I've seen too many hooked up wrong and placement of the external regulator will cause under charging if too cold and over charging if the regulator is too cold. I still is a common problem with the older 89 to 91 trucks. Cold mornings here in Idaho (minus) they could over charge quite a bit.

Great work is right. Best to keep the match ECM for that block. Makes it worse when retro fits are done without the PCM because now you can't read codes. It required to have the PCM to read error codes.

I'm currently like 9 to 11 mV AC last time I check after doing the W-T ground wire mod. Big difference to the 55mV AC I was before the W-T ground wire mod. My whole process is the simplified version.

I've got 2 of these trucks. 1996 Dodge Ram 1500 Club Cab (without Quad Doors), 5.9L V8 Gasser with a Dynamic built 46RE auto trans. 187k miles. 2002 Dodge Ram 2500 Quad Cab 5.9L I6 Diesel NV4500 transmission. 419k miles.

Just for other to know... I do have LED in stock...
