1689 with HVAC
I need to get home and really look over the wiring maps to see if I can see a reach between these two (CCD Bus and blower motor)

I'm wondering more so the PCM ground being impacted possibly. The only connection PCM and HVAC have is the pressure switches for the A/C side. 5 volt not 12V. Something is affecting power or fouling the creation of CCD bus. Remember the PCM is the source of the CCD Bus. There is a PCM ground wire article @IBMobile. Im on the road today.

Boise & Medical
Here is am taking a road trip down Tuesday for medical for both @Tweety Bird and myself handling my Cronic Kidney Disease. Yeah my cancer might be over but I'm still with health issues. Yesterday I was dressed up similar to today's pictures. My nurse sure enjoy chatting with me and wondering why the make up. Something about having radioactive material injected into you and watch you kidneys light up on a X-ray screen then watch them drain into my ostomy in realtime. Yeah that test was super close to blow out. My bag was full! Yeah they still betting on me in my purple and black hair. The day is young yet ill see about updating with more pictures and adventures. Oh no chatting for me. The gallery will show locations where photos have been taken. Let's see what else I can do for locations.

Do NOT grind big patches of clean metal. Just remove a bolt or screw and leave paint intact. Other than that the grounds rust out rapidly and fail quicker. Make sure you metal is painted. Just the bolt or screw needs be clean and cut fresh threads maybe drill a new hole? DO NOT GRIND TO BARE METAL!

Yeah, I would figure a bit more line pressure is in order. I would consider giving a transmission shop like DTT or similar a call and get good performance pressure specifications from them. Sadly, I'm a bit thin on automatic knowledge but yes, typically more line pressure is used in modified trucks. I'm trying to remember that something in the low 100 realm of pressure is typical. That's where the DTT box will control the max pressure signal back to the PCM. Just spitballing...

That will work. Simpler yet a piece of 12 or 14 AWG cable between the driver side terminal and a fender bolt or body bolt of your choice.

Might actually do pressure gauge testing to see where your transmission pressures are at. All the pressure test ports and pressures are in the Dodge FSM.

Hmmm... Biggest thing I can say is make sure the APPS signal is NOT modified by wiring mods. I've seen people jump the APPS sensor to the PCM to hope to increase the signal and this should not be done.

Was the truck warmed up completely and left running? I'm trying to make sure the batteries are charged and no big loads are running. That way we can measure a fairly common at rest AC noise levels. Should be pretty steady typically. Jumps are big loads stressing the diodes.

Long Nap for Beast
Yes. 😋 I know the grill is rather just distasteful being bare plastic.

Long Nap for Beast
Beast, is nearing 500k miles on the odometer. I'm doing the smart thing at this time and parking Beast back in the garage for a long nap. I need to do both a front and rear crank seal on Beast. Beast needs to be parked and left in storage for the time being. I want to be out and building new tunes for Beast. Thor is going to take the lead at this time. This will allow me the time to fix Beast properly. Beast final project was the chasing the truck bed and tailgate.

2006 Dodge Ram 3500 - Thor Project
The injector problems is over and done. The engine starts easy for even the first start of the day. The Airdog 150 is being installed today and the pump is mounted inside the fender well of the bed. I'm going have a good hiding spot from debris strike and I'll add a simple plastic fender well to the front piece of that fender. Now the sender in the tank I assembled as directed by the AirDog instructions. I left the 45 degree cut on the tip of the bottom straw and didn't alter any parts on this install. Just the location of the AirDog is not on the frame and not dragging the filters below the frame. The idler pulley on the fan belt just below the upper radiator hose has been replaced. I used a 1/2" breaker bar and reached in from under the truck pulled the belt off the A/C compressor to give some slack. Then I hopped back up and using a 13mm wrench and just unscrewed on pulley and then straight replacement and tighten back up again. Place your belt on the pulley and then return under the truck to pull the tensioner back and slip the belt back on the compressor again. Tail lights have been installed but I need to wire up the lights to my current tail light loom. You can follow my Blog post every day on this...
