2014pinnacle Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Hi guys I have a 2016 pinnacle with an Mdrive I’m having isssues with the gear selector. While driving the truck the gear selector will go black and then the transmission shifts into neutral you have to punch the dash to get it to light up again and it will shift back into gear any ideas what’s causing the problem?

Joey Mack Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 The touch pad can be replaced. its plug in, and then a learn data re-set can be done. do you have PTT and a Vocomm box to do the programming? jojo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joey Mack Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I'm sorry,, I know what you mean... I left Mack 3 + 1/2 years ago and went back to work for myself.. I'm one guy, and the Small Dealership I left, does as much business as I do, and some days when I go there for parts, there may only be 1 truck in the yard and guys are sent home early to save labor.. Many people see the issues and shop for good shops' Jojo 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joey Mack Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 So true, 'F'.. I'm not bragging, but the truth is, that I have customers who trust me more than normal, when it comes to working on their money makers. They would rather hear the how I honestly feel about their truck's and my thought's on the current repair's needed, and if it's a job I cant do, they thank me for not taking them for a ride... I wish I had the 'Berries' to open up a shop of my own, but i'm scared too, and I don't know who would want to do this hard work. So finding a few guy's to work for me will be tough.. Maybe if I was 20 years younger, with the knowledge I have now, it would be a different story. well i think i'm rambling now,,, c'ya Jojo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to justify someone else's actions when something goes sideways is hard to do if they make a mistake on your behalf ! And unfortunately mistakes happen as you know! No body is perfect what we do is not exact science !When you think about it, We are like vets of machinery! all different Types of animal's in our business ! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
