IMHO, traction control is for guys who don't get it....everything I drive has traction control, my right foot!

......but hey, at least you tried. LOL, if I pulled that, I'd be sleeping in the car

Welcome from Centre Wellington, Ontario . Helmets are over there.....lol

Got it back this morning. Service manager said it was a small wire on the starter that "broke". Probably somewhere on top of the tranny where I couldn't get at to check..... What a frigging awful place to put the starter!!!!!!!

wicked F

Bet ya 10$ you can't get it stuck....lol

Welcome....helmets are over there

K. Never seen such a thing around here. Good to know

Heated windshield.....you mean defrost?

Haha. In the mean time I get to become better acquainted with the old rd.....

2002 Mack Granite tri-axle roll off. No idea for motor (likely around 350hp?). I do remember 8ll fuller and axle forward model, turned like a friggin house!!!! No one liked it so no one drove it. I used it on the farm to shunt feed bins, then when the boss man let me do runs on Saturdays, that was usually the truck I took, cause I was used to it.

Sorry guys, no pics. And from what I hear from his drivers, it's been sold.......(RIP NRD#10)

Good lookin r models, eh. Welcome from Centre Wellington, Ontario.........you can pick up your helmet over there.....

Beause certain meathead "drivers" don't know how to use pushers and tags, the truck calculates the weight and drops/pressurises the axle accordingly....no driver control......bs......glad we're grandfathered for a little while at least.....

Should have got pics of all the other trucks on the hook at the dealer when we got there. Apparently it's a bad day to be a driver and an awesome day to run a wrecker around K-W lol

I was thinking there must be another fuse block somewhere....didn't know it was there....thanks for the info. Back at Mack now anyway, we'll see what they figure out.

Nope......exhausted what I could do on site with only an adjustable wrench and called the boss man, who is a former heavy truck mechanic, and he called a wrecker to come get it. Back at the shop now.....I'll keep you all posted. Thanks for the reply, tho.

New ontario weight laws. Automatic lift axles basically.

Argh....sitting on site, idle timer shut it down, now no crank. All relays under the dash are clicking away as they always did. All other electrical components work (radio etc). Starter wires are tight and solid other than being a bit dirty, tried tapping the starter, no luck. All fuses (that I can figure) for the starting system are ok, switched the ignition relay and still nothing....

Seen my buddy the other night (mentioned him before, the guy with them EPA07 MP7 with the dpf issues), he said his boss man ordered a 2014 GU813 (as he had heard good thing about the def systems). But, this one's got the SPIF crap and air ride, so after doing what I could to explain to him about the SPIF (over a few "pops"), we got talking about the air ride......needless the say, he is cautiously optimistic obout the improved ride.....only real advice I could offer is "make sure that thing has full locks).....

Paging challenger to the help desk....challenger to the help desk.

Someone will be with you shortly, lol

Got cross locks?

I run a EPA10 MP7 and have had no emissions related trouble in 4200+hrs and 125,000km.....only actual trouble is the odd engine light and that set of injector cups. However, a good friend of mine has the same motor (MP7 405-M), but with EPA07 emissions, and has had nothing but problems.....I've lost count of how many DPF's he's put in it now. So far, from what i hear and have read, the EPA10 (DPF & DEF) systems seem to do alright. Someone WILL correct me if I'm wrong, lol

Looks good. Welcome to BMT, here's your helmet.....

Hasn't done it in awhile now, and it's in at Mack for annual safety now. Told them about the light issue, and the cel, we'll see what they come up with when I pick it up Monday. Thanks all for the replies

Welcome to BMT.....Here's your helmet.......
