    Electrical - wiring - Switch Problem?

    Joat is the resident 'Guru' on here with electrical stuff :hail , so do what he says first. With that said, let me see if I understand this correctly. One of your problems is your radio won't shut off when the ignition is turned off? Here's what's throwing me on that one: (#11 Radio -...

    Starting problems

    If you're really interested in this truck, I'd scan it for codes. Also, pull the intake boot off going into the turbo compressor, and check the turbo compressor blades for damage. This will tell you if the engine has injested anything, which would likely damage it internally. What you...

    Dana 50 TTB Pivot Bushing Installation?

    I finished pressing my pivot bushings (all the way) in yesterday. Here are a couple of things I figured out that made it go a little easier. Each pivot bushing has four individual polyurethane bushings in it. Remove the outer bushing on the metal shoulder side, and the outer two bushings...

    Dana 50 TTB Pivot Bushing Installation?

    Really can't tell much difference in the ride! It never did shimmy or vibrate or anything, but the bushings just looked like they had had it! -popcorn

    Dana 50 TTB Pivot Bushing Installation?

    No, actually, I didn't think it was too bad. If you have the right tooling, you could probably do it in a couple hours. You have to remove both pivot bushings in the front end (I did one at a time). Then you have to remove the old bushings from the axle housing. I used my front axle nut...

    Dana 50 TTB Pivot Bushing Installation?

    A quick update on my Pivot Bushings installation. I figured out the answer to my question! I found out I have everything in the right place, but I didn't realize that you have to take a C-Clamp or press, and actually press the bushings into the axle up to the metal shoulder to seat the...

    Dana 50 TTB Pivot Bushing Installation?

    I just finished changing out the Pivot Bushings in my Dana 50 TTB Front Axle. I ordered the Energy Suspension Bushings from Summit. Anyway, the reason I'm posting is because they don't look like they're installed right. I put them in like I thought the paperwork said, but the metal shoulder...

    No Horn or Cruise Control

    Update on my horn & cruise dilemma! This morning I did the Pinpoint test from the Ford Service manual. Everything checked out good until I got to the end, where it said I had an open circuit or loose ground. Anyway, I had power to the horn, and I could take a screwdriver and ground the...

    No Horn or Cruise Control

    Ok, I chased this thing, off and on, a couple of days this week, with no luck. In Don's earlier post, you said that the horn/cruise circuit might ground behind the dash. I put in a new heater core last week, so I probably knocked something loose in the process. I tore all that back...

    No Horn or Cruise Control

    Tbuzz, Yeah, that brake light was one of the first things I checked! I've dealt with that thing before. I think it can effect everything in the truck! :eek: Thanks for the tip though! You're right about Joat and Hheynow! They are like the PSD Guru's! :hail BTW, that is one Bad Azz...

    No Horn or Cruise Control

    That G200 number on the ground for that circuit, will that be labeled on the wire bundle that the horn circuit is in? Thanks!

    No Horn or Cruise Control

    A loose ground is probably what it is, because I was back up in there yesterday installing a switch for my new electric fan. :rolleyes: Any idea where the grounds are for that circuit (where they physically are on the truck), or how to find out where they are? :dunno I was looking at...

    Intermittent IPR sticking issue???

    Not really much to add, but when I was rebuilding my engine, I noticed that the wires going into the back of my IPR connector were worn bare and were touching each other. You couldn't really notice it until you pulled the connector and harness off the back of the IPR, then pulled the black...

    No Horn or Cruise Control

    I used dielectric grease for the clockspring lube. I pulled it apart and everything still looks clean in there. Here's an update on this problem. Today I re-checked every fuse again, inside and outside the truck. All are good. Next I pulled and swapped all the relays under the hood...

    No Horn or Cruise Control

    I just thought about this, so I'll throw this out there also. I just installed a new chip about the same time this stuff quit. Could a chip cause this? Thanks!

    No Horn or Cruise Control

    I just cleaned that thing up and put the dielectric grease on it a couple of months ago. It worked great and stopped squeaking for a while. I wonder what happened???

    No Horn or Cruise Control

    The fuse is good. I checked that. How do you check for a bad relay? Will it be obvious? Thanks! :hail

    No Horn or Cruise Control

    I was driving home today and noticed that, out of the blue, my horn AND my cruise control don't work now. I check all the fuses inside and under the hood. They're all good. I pulled the horn pad off, and made sure everything was still connected, then jiggled the wires while trying to blow...
