I went out to move the truck and the voltmeter shows that the alternator is not charging. I found a link on the web that sounded very helpful.

I put new KYB rear shocks, a huge battery, and adjusted the rear brakes today. The front shocks are still in the mail, also KYB’s. I have had KYB’s last for 18+ years. In fact, I’ve never had one wear out, ever!!

Transmisison adjustment and lock repairs
Posted by Administrator under ElectricalComments Off on Transmisison adjustment and lock repairs
After reading even more posts in the Cummins forum I found that there are video’s on youtube that some guy posted on how to debug several things on the Cummins Diesel. One item was the tps. It is suppose to have a 1.0v output in the idle position. Mine was at .3v. So I adjusted it as close as I could get, 1.01v. Also the full throttle position is suppose to be around 3.5v. It was. So now the tps is dialed in and the trans is still shifting into and out of overdrive just likes it’s suppose to !!!! Looks like all that is left is to drop the pan to change the fluid and adjust the bands.
BTW the air conditioning works very well!!!!
The door locks were in major need of help!! Here I am with the door panels apart and repairing the door locks and the electrical wiring. I had to have keys made from scratch for the doors since they didn’t match the ignition.
