Headlight issues on a GU713
Joey Mack replied to Midland Oilfield's topic in Electrical, Electronics and Lighting
Good luck sir... keep in touch... -
OK... I have used it on trucks as new as 2013.. My thoughts are to see if they have one that is at least US-10 and newer, but around 2018 or so, it's an OBDII style plug, and there may be some protections in the truck to keep you out of it's ECM's.. I was warned not to use mine on the last few models that had the 9 pin duetch, for that reason... I never risked it.. Let us know what you buy and its ability to perform.. jojo

Headlight issues on a GU713
Joey Mack replied to Midland Oilfield's topic in Electrical, Electronics and Lighting
Hmmm... That is strange, Is the light control module faulty? How about a loose or bad ground wire... They are 'gray' in color.. I assume that a pressure switch on the park brake system controls the lights as well.. I dont know.. It may be best that I set back and watch, and if I come up with something, I will jump back in.. jojo -

I was going to ask you if you had big plans for tomorrow.. I always liked the look of the Brigadier.. I never worked on one, though.. I look forward to seeing this B-Model, when he gets more done to it.. I kinda like the brown interior.. I have only seen green ones,, and the red ones that are fire trucks.. I had the pleasure of driving one last year.. It was an "A" model Mack fire truck, a very rare truck.. I drove it about 70 miles.. I will PM you a picture, dont want to steal this guys post.. -
I just read a news story about our King.. He was at a conference on Hunger, and asked for Jackie Walorski... I guess he wanted to hear from her... However, she and 3 others were killed in a car accident on Aug. 3 2022.. In the state of Indiana... We have 2 more years of this crap.. and if he ends up removed from the throne, then we will either be controlled by Dr.Jill, or Kamala... God help us...

Have you un plugged the right side and checked for power on the harness to see if it is getting power correctly? Jojo -

That's cool. I wonder when they started to put pups on the hood? Does the grill say Mack too ? -
Good question..
-
Yeah, I couldn't remember for some reason.. glad you cleared it up..
-
For sure.. great point..
-
I don't see where you posted the model. I assume 'R' possibly DM.. whatcha got .. pics are always a joy 😊... What tranny?
-
yes.... yours is a 2 valve, and I think in '86 the 4 valve came out.. '90 was the first E-7...
-
does that mean you got the answer you are looking for?
-
Holy Moly!!!! Amazing........

no.. hook positive to ground, and neg to the line that goes to batt. neg. I have a positive ground truck, and it just seems to me that it is just simply reversed.. Have you searched some of these questions on the web? I did a little research, and that's how I came up with my simple thought's.. to me 'positive ground' is an oxymoron... Basically the chassis carries the voltage, and the ground is direct to the neg. on the battery... I hope others will add to this, and If I am wrong, please accept my apology... Maybe Glenn or Mechaholic, V, F,, heck too many to mention... jojo

I bet 30-40 Amps... I suggest a separate circuit, with a circuit breaker, or Maxi fuse.. Also, be sure the control switch can handle the amp's and make sure what is plugged in has a tight connection, so that heat is not generated by a loose connection on a high amp. circuit.. I'm sure you have replaced a melted heater fan switch or a Ford headlight switch in the past? Hope for more opinion's on this one... jojo

What Year Mack? I have a really good, affordable scan tool from O.T.C. It gives the basic info, then I go to my V-Mac books and read the flow chart's.. around $300.00 for the tool...
-
sad but.... it's almost complete....U.S.S. of A....

It's too bad Mr. Casey isn't close to me.. I have to pull a 454 and Turbo 400 tranny out of a C-10 Silverado.. I sure could use a good mechanic to help me pull it and re-build it.. Jojo
-
Heck, that 11 year old, did more work in those pic's than guys i tried to hire to help me fix trucks... You Go ! Kiddo... jojo
-
No biggie, just tossin some stuff out there... When I did the B-model, I removed the inner seal, and filled it with oil... 80W90... jojo
-
I'm no pro, but you reckon the hubs have a seal in the middle, and the wheel bearings are packed with grease, like a B-Model?
-
Hmmm? Don't see why 80W90 would be wrong.. you reckon, the climate you are in should dictate? As well as oil change intervals... Synthetic oil wasnt around when it was born.. jojo
