  1. Red good find in those two items. Now Im looking on the best deal for Shrink Tube with Melt Adhesive, and Heat Shrink Butt Connectors with melt adhesive I cant even fine either with the melt adhesive anywhere local. No electronics supply stores anywhere either .
  2. I just got this weatherproof relay and the Blue Sea waterproof fuse holder from amazon. Both quality parts
  3. My hinged cover is busted off my factory 7way trailer plug. Im wondering what brand the factory plug was. What brand does your factory trailer plug say on the cover? Pollak, Hopkins, or Curt or ?
  4. Call your local dealership My local dodge stealer claims they dont have the right equipment so the cant do chit .
  5. Yes,, Make sure you dont have bad diodes in your alternator. I had burnt out diodes in mine, And my ECM was damaged also. Could it be related.... I rebuilt my alt with new diode pack and new brushes and it tested good after .
  6. Looks good.. Is that your spary booth?
  7. Can the website color / appearance, etc be changed by the user? I cant see read the "home: outline" near the top Lettering is way to faint. Needs darkening or color change or something. Its Hard to see / find to click on .
  8. Looks like you have a Replaced Re-Manufactured ECM Good Luck with your new ECM Keep us Posted on how it works when you get it installed
  9. Luckily I dont have front ABS bull chit on my 99 At least One good thing about a '99,,,,, no front ABS garbage to fuss with , Now I only have safety belt light that always goes on Any tips on getting that to stay off?
  10. I recommend Reman auto electronics. The Partner Company of Flight Systems Electronics. After alot of Research( and 4 years running a bad ECM) I bought from them. Very Happy http://www.remanautoelectronics.com/dodge/cummins-78.aspx Their price is very good. Venders have been selling their ECMs for $95-400 more They Remanufacture them(replace all known parts that go bad) Test for any other problems, and Upgrade to the latest software. Then they go through more testing. You get a print out of final test.
  11. My ABS rear axle speed sensor and my auto trans back-up light switch finally arrived from Rock Auto after TWO WEEKS ! I removed the spare tire.....Well hell,,,,,, now I can get easy access to the ABS speed sensor. Came right out.easy, didnt break off. I did not use the plug pig tail extension that was included. ABS/Brake dash lights are OFF Finally. ! .........Cool.............. I drove the left tires up on ramps so the truck was tilted. Pulled the old Back-up light switch off the auto trans. Cool , No Oil came out with the truck tilted (Yeah My Trans OIl level was full). Installed the new switch. and WaaLaa,,, My back-up lights finally work Its about time you fixed those things Dude ! My New ECM has got me motivated ! Now to Wire up a aftermarket back-up light

  13. I gotta figure out what gauges the wires of the trailer plug are, so I can figure out what step down butt splices sizes I should get. One side will be crimping on two wires so it will need to be larger I know there are at least two different gauges. The B+ and the Brake are heavier gauge than the others
  14. I found these step down butt connectors . Good for splice connection, two wires on one side , one on other side NSPA (National Standard Parts Associates) https://www.cableorganizer.com/step-down-butt-splice-connectors/ Long Vid but
  15. I wondered if they are a gimmick or not ? Never heard of solder worth a darn that would melt at that low of temp. What happens if the wire gets hot from amp draw? Seems a crimp would be better =
  16. Has Any one use these? https://www.amazon.com/Connectors-Sopoby-Waterproof-Automotive-Electrical/dp/B01FI6IKG6/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1515103297&sr=1-1-spons&keywords=wire+splice+12+gauge+butt+connectors&psc=1 Ive seen the crimp kind that you can heat shrink seal after you crimp. .
  17. I knew a guy that use to use his dash as a drum set while listening to heavy metal. Beat on his dash with his palms Is that how your dash frame broke?
  18. I guess I should just measure the size of the hole in the sheet metal and get a better style clip than dodge used,,, Maybe from this to this Maybe
  19. Does anyone have a link to, size , the plastic fastener/clips that hold the inner front fender wells? My stocks are some kind of two piece clip I think Or is the a better fitting clip to use? Two piece removable? Mine are all loose/ rattle or missing My back fender wells I used small SS bolts because easy access to remove .
  20. I like your take on it. and would agree We used to drive out in the desert with our headlights off .
  21. Yeah maybe lucky .. And lucky you didnt have a bull laying in the road that got hit by a car .
  22. Hey Red, Did you install a fuse https://www.amazon.com/Blue-Sea-Systems-Waterproof-Holder/dp/B004ZIUA62/ref=pd_bxgy_263_img_2?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B004ZIUA62&pd_rd_r=7Y7PGVS52W15KZ5S1X28&pd_rd_w=9bgQX&pd_rd_wg=fY1ml&psc=1&refRID=7Y7PGVS52W15KZ5S1X28 In you wiring with that water proof relay?
