    Oil Change Reset Procedure

    I don't know about the throttle trick on the 13-14. The procedure to clear that I know works is from the EVIC. I have done two 13s. Same as the fuel filter clearing procedure, but you have to switch off, then back on to see it cleared. Switch to "ON", select oil filter life, press the > and hold...

    Archived won't run more than a block

    Algae in the fuel tank. I had the same thing happen to mine. Change the fuel filters and drop the tank to pull the strainer/pick up out and clean it. I am betting it will be covered in slime. If that's the case, the tank needs to be cleaned. You can buy a biocide, but not sure how effective it...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Won't Start

    Could be a number of things. When pushing the primer bulb, after 50-60 times, you should hear it start to squirt at the overflow valve. If it doesn't, you have a problem with getting fuel to the overflow valve. There is a strainer in the tank, another in the fuel preheater right by the lift...

    7 PIN Connector Wiring

    All 7 pin connectors should be wired the same. Otherwise, the RV would have to be rewired for each truck. You may be looking at the connector from the back side vs reading the schematic from the front side or vice versa. Either way, glad it worked out for you.

    To Tow Prep or Not?

    Most RV trailer manufacturers will NOT warranty a gooseneck adapter, so be careful. They can put stresses on the pin box that was not in the engineering parameters. FWIW, I have a 13 2500, different frame I know, but did not have the factory set up. I didn't want it, the 14s available did have...

    Turn the key to on Nothing happens

    There is no logical reason why one battery should have been low unless said battery was defective. They both charge from the same system and should be balanced as far as charge goes. Good thing you insisted on a new battery. I think you had a defective one that could have taken out the other...

    DEF usage?

    It's not necessary to run it out. Do it just like fuel. You don't even have to know the total capacity. Look. Fill the tank to capacity. No need to take note on this, it's not important to find out usage. Set Trip B to 0.0. Drive it like you normally do for several thousand miles. When the DEF...

    How to Get the Exhaust Brake to Work at Low Speed

    So you are saying you set the cruise on these mountains with a 15K lb trailer behind you? I just don't do that and wouldn't consider doing that. I think you are trying to get the truck to do something unique it probably doesn't need to do if this is the case. I know with my fifth wheel that...
