Re: US Ford transit wheels fit the 712k!!!!!

Yikes !! That's some mighty nice work man. I also now see Hugues's prior fitup on the Pinz wheels

One thought/recommendation before you machine these up -- just for consideration. Please keep

I consider that a feature.

In the first position no power to the IGN which allows one to crank
for a compression test or to move the truck W/O engine very S L O W L Y.

Re: New ARB Slimline 100 battery

Hmmm very interesting! Renogy is a pretty reputable company in Solar and off-grid power conversion.

That's an interesting approach they are taking, semi-solidstate. The pricing is pretty attractive, it is
priced BELOW Battleborn's 100Ah LFP at $750, that's goning to be mighty competitive at least ...

Re: electrics question

Hard to know how extensive the electrical mod's were made.
Couple of thoughts, the Start function on the Bosch switch
you are showing still has to provide power to the starter
solenoid. If you can identify that wire and the stock push
button switch is still present, you could connect to that ...

Re: Stupid me.

Not sure exactly what your describing, but I'll take a stab at it.

With the Ground switch closed, and no load presented e.g. nothing
ON, your seeing a full 24V+ -- right? Then you turn stuff ON then
the voltage drops.

If that's what your seeing, check for corroded or loos connections,
a bad ...

Re: Harness for Solenoid

I have the color schematic as well as the printed version that comes with the Pinz manuals. The caveat is the number of taps off the starter terminal depends on the model. Specifically how many aux 24v power connectors. You may just have to ohm these paths out to isolate where that broken, possibly ...

Re: Harness for Solenoid

Your attached images are not rendering for me ??

But.... There should be only one Black smaller gauge wire ~16AWG
connecting to the Solenoid, which comes from the dash Starter button.

The heavy gauge terminal on the Starter motor should have 5 wires
(model dependant) 4 Red, 1 Black to Battery ...
