Amazing - I finally got the dealer to agree to replace controller - I took the one out of my truck and they were going to pull one off a truck on their lot - PROBLEM the 3500 is different than the 1500 & 2500 and they did not have one.
While mine was out I cleaned the contacts and greased them...
Thanks, I have placed several posts because of this - I have mine set on Heavy Electric- 10 and do not feel comfortable about the stopping power, I have a 2011 40' Jayco pinnacle and I have gone as far as replacing all four brake assemblies (plates, magnets and shoes ), rewired the axels to #14...
Asked dealer to disable brake controller on signature truck I was told they can not do this. I was sure that I thought I had read posts that members had gone to dealers to disable the factory installed integrated controllers. Dealer said no way to do this - is this right?
I also had read a...
Went to dealership today to have them test brake controller - set on 10 it just does apply enough braking force. I have checked magnets (3. 2 - 3. 3 amps to each one, 13. 3 amps total), brakes are new, burnished in and adjusted. I tested the current from the emergency slide on the controller and...
Nice combo - I had a Sundowner 3-horse with living quarters but yours appears bigger. I showed quarter horses for over 25 years but, have recently gotten out of that to have some free time to travel.
I envy the truck, I had a 2003 set up pretty similar and I loved it - wish I had it back, the...

Getting ready -Syracuse NY to Glacier, Bamf, Lake Louise, Jasper, Vancouver, Vancouver Island into port Angeles Washington and then some route back to NY. Really looking forward to hitting the Road! Wish I had not gone so big on the 5ver. 40" long and 13'6" high - creates some highway and...
From what I have read it seems from posts that the integrated controller on the 2012 is supposed to be free of previous issues. I would like to hear if others are also having problems with the controllers on 2012 vehicles.
Mine has never worked right since new, but it has gotten worse...
I really like what you did and will probably copy - nice job and pictures! I would also like any information on the wiring you did so that the EVIC message was not coming up. I have read numerous posts but since we both have the same exact trucks I would appreciate your comments.
Everyone...
Can anyone tell me what the fluid capacities are on the front and rear axels of a 2012 3500 4x4 HO.
I have seen 122 oz. for the rear and 76 oz. for the front, but I am not sure that is correct for the 2012 with the new finned cover. :confused:
I really appreciate all of the comments. I can live with the towing mileage, but from other posts I was reading it seemed some members were getting 15-16. 5 MPG when running empty with a comparable truck- off course there may be slight differences. .
I usually tow around 65-72 and my truck is...
Almost identical to mine; Nice Truck! How many miles on it and what are you getting for fuel mileage empty and loaded? I am concerned that I am only getting 8. 9 pulling my 16,000 lb. 5 er, and 12. 9 max on highway empty.
getting ready for about 16,000 mile cross country to Vancouver BC and...
