I went through the same nightmare last year. CHECK ALL THE CONNECTIONS AT THE TRANSPAN. I can't remember which connector caused me all those problems, but it all happended after I changed the trans oil filter fluid etc. Also, check for combination of blown fuses at the junction box under the...

I cut them down the seam with a finger cutter and proceeded with the install. Looks good... ... ... ... ... . hopefully eliminated another link to the "death wobble".

Truck is apart and cant be back together until I find out how the hell do you install OEM sway bar bushings that are not slotted... ... ... ..... do you cut them yourself... ... ... ... . what gives? Thanks

Oo. ITS THE TRANS RELAY CIRCUIT!!!!!!!!!!! I was experimenting with differnt combinations and got the ALT to charge and all of the lights work properly. The 20 AMP fuse link feeds the trans relay circuit. The relay itself is ok... ... means that there is either a short at the selinoid...

No I havent yet... ... ... ... . damm vendor sent my scan tool US Mail... ... go figure. Anyway... ... ..... I keep blowing the 20 amp (not the 40) at PDC. Its the little blue fuse. The only thing on that circuit is one splice to the power outlets and there ok... ... ... ... the other path...

Getting close to the cause... ... ... ... ... ... at the PDC. . fuse link number 3 (40amp) keeps blowing upon turning the key on. Note that his fuse link and number 8 are grounded at the PCM. I havent got my scanner yet. I fixed the mirror courtesy light issue... ... ... ... blown 15 amp

Looks like I lost power to the mirrors, radio and courtesy lights as well. This is looking possibly like an ignition key/ground problem now. Radio was making a poping sound when it was working upon turn of the ignition key. I took apart the PDC box and cleaned it... ... ..... I couldnt...

Thanks Dave... ... ... ... ..... I am feeling quite challenged at the moment..... Cant wait to solve this puzzle. I traced all the wiring back from the PCM box along the firewall connectors etc. There are 3 connectors at the PCM box... they are all clean & tight. This may sound stupid...

Ive read allot of post... ... ..... no scanner in the mail yet. I wish somebody would write a program to emmulate the PCM box like some have done for older HP engineering calculators. Seems like there would be a market for that. Bench testing would be nice. By they way... ... ... . where...
