Then that makes the job simpler, so you can take the bulb out and check for your 12 v comin from the contacts, and if its there then you know its either the bulb or its a problem with the return line which joins to that common ground we talked about, u can even turn ur multimeter to ohms and do...
Do you have access to a multimeter to check for voltage at the tail light end? There will be a common ground as well, it will look like a wire going to a bolt which is thru the chassis around the rear bumper area, sometimes unbolting it and cleaning it up with sandpaper and some cleaning agent...
Just to clear this up, both brake lights are out? Apart from wiring it will either be a fuse or more likely a faulty brake light switch which will be located under the brake pedal.
Ok cool, So can anyone tell me which bodytype/model mine is? does it have a name? for example flareside,XLT etc. Or is it just f150 base model?Also being from foreign lands i found this website pretty interesting, It helps you break down what your VIN number actually means and you can even...
yeh i ordered something from LMC last thursday( a week ago) and they still haven't dispatched the item, so i rang them and they said they were a little behind and still estimating shipping costs?! Thats not good enough in any way! what a joke! So my truck passes its inspection, everything was...
Anyhow im not wanting a free pass,that isnt how i do business. iim going to get it seen too its just i need to find a replacement part somewhere as i looked again this mornin and the crack is right where 2 pipes become 1 so repair will
Be hard. And removing one of a scrap vehicle will
Be...
Yh i hear that, although i doubt it would stand up in a court of law as the hole is due to a bottomed out type incident, so i could just say i hit a boulder the day before.
So Duncan, i have to get an inspection done for my insurance company from a journeyman qualified mechanic, Iv pretty much smashed out all the Fail jobs now that i picked up myself. my question is do you think he will fail it for a crack in the exhaust ? its pretty loud..
Maybe? i need the truck just to carry the application form in, its pretty hefty...
anyone tried taking the down pipe off a 302? mines got a crack in and needs patching up or replacing, im thinking the bolts will be tricky to unscrew tho with it being so hot in that area all the time i can see...
Well i came here on business. But i fell in love with the potholes and expensive beer! Now im staying, if the plan goes right :) im an electronics engineer/technician in the British Army but dont hold that against me ;)
Yes it seems everytime i unscrew something the screws want to round off or something wants to break in the process! id say she's almost ready for the journeymans inspection though, after i replace one of the headlight assemblies which are sealed units! so had to buy new online.
Haha So i spent 2 hours today inside a crashed up old ford in the junkyard, sweating my tits off in there because the windows and door wouldnt open because of the crash damage, i was on the hunt for new seatbelts in the same sexual red colour that mine has lol, i tried heating up the bolt with a...
yeh, the interior is its saving grace, that and it only has only done 149,000 km. when you get closer you can see alot of half $$$ rusty patch up jobs, i dont know how much rust a 30 year old truck should have, but mine has its share! But from what i have been learning, new panels shouldnt be a...
so when i said, "its definately not a V" i actually meant "im a bit clueless and talking crap!", So this weekend i actually lifted the hood and started doing a few jobs, Changed the fuel filter and removed broken seatbelt female end. Its the 302 V8! the body work really isnt in great shape! got...
hey! its a 300 i think? its defo not a V,Im british and just moved here so im no expert on trucks by any means! it has no docs or any paperwork, It wasnt even road registered for its 1st 20 years as it was a farm hand, the interior is in real good shape considering its seen 30 canadian winters...
