thanks everybody for your help. I went ahead and JB Plastic Welded it. Seems to be holding.

98 2500 CTD QC Latch that holds the quad door window closed separated from the window glass. Latch seems intact, but has anyone tried to reattach latch to glass? It looks like they used epoxy or somethin at the factory. Any help, ideas appreciated. Thanks, Dave.

Thanks, Mike

Gentlemen- Can u direct me to info on these two items. "Make sure to test for excessive AC noise and highly suggest you do the W-T ground wire mod. " Thanx, D.

Update. Sent the ECM to Auto Computer Specialists in Florida. WTS, APPS and some other stuff was fried. Repaired, and goin back in the truck today. Wish me luck.

Sorry. Lawrenceville, Ga.

Mike- Not sure exactly what you've posted or how to use it??

Just moved to the area ( Lawrenceville ). Normally do all my own work, but currently living in an apartment while looking for a new home. Unfortunately, apt does not allow residents to work on their vehicles here. Currently having extended crank time/loss of prime/ECM issues. Looking for a knowledgeable, honest tech in the area to work on my 2500 who knows OUR trucks and systems. Would be willing to travel for the right guy if rate is reasonable. Any help or direction is appreciated. Meanwhile, everyone have a great holiday and stay safe. 98 1/2 2500 QCSB Auto 2WD 5.9L 3.55

Dripley- Thanks for getting back to me. Busy time here for us. In addition to the holidays, we have just sold our home and are looking for a new one here in Georgia. We are currently in an apartment ( try THAT after owning your own home for 30 years... ) and they are very strict on working on your vehicle on the property. So, it looks like I will have to take my truck to someone. I can tell you this. I still have no lp activation that I can hear at the WTS lite. I also have no lift pump activity I can hear after bumping the starter. If I continue to crank for 10 secs or so, the truck starts and runs. As far as leak theory, coincidentally, I actually have the truck parked nose down rite now, does not seem to make a difference. I don't have a fuel pressure gauge as such, I have the Edge Insight Digital Pod on the dash for all my gauges. My fuel pressure is consistently around 12 or so. Do you think you, or one of the other fantastic members here could direct me to someone in the Lawrenceville, Ga. area that I could trust to work on my baby? I mean someone who KNOWS these 2nd gen CTD's like you guys do. Not impressed with the dealer's "diesel guys". Appreciate any direction you could offer. Wishing you and yours a happy and safe holiday.

Sorry Drip, just saw this. Usually around 12 or so.

dripley- yes, it is the one on the block.

Got any suggestions on a quality rebuild ECM? Lift pump is newest version available, installed new with IP less than 10K ago, not sure of brand. When it runs well, (which is always) this truck runs like a dream. I love it.

98 1/2 2500 2wd 5.9L auto. Normally, turning ignition switch to run position and waiting for the WTS to go out, starts a prime cycle on the lift pump that I can hear, lasts a few seconds and turning key to start position starts this truck immediately, I mean in like half a crank. Lately, I have had intermittent issues where the WTS lights normally and goes out, but I never hear any lift pump prime and the truck has an extended crank time of 5-10 secs before it starts. Once it starts, it runs great, fuel pressure great. But the problem is intermittent. It will work normally for a week or so, and then exhibit this problem..... I know Mike said in previous posts that a missing WTS light is a possible ECM. My WTS is not missing, just the lift pump prime. Could this still be the ECM? BTW, new IP and new lift pump have less than 10K on them. Appreciate any ideas anyone may have. Thanx, Dave.
