Here is the only REPTO book I have.. It is for E-7's, but I wonder if it has info for you.. Jojo
-
Unfortunately, I have No practical knowledge of REPTO's.. I have seen them and made a few repairs many years ago, But I have forgotten all of it.. I'm just glad that I have a Mack svc. manual on REPTO's,, in the case I have to do a repair, or post the info here.. P.M. me if you need me to send a picture of the book and its pages.. Jojo

the bulb sockets in RD's seem to fall out a lot after 10 years or so.. for a quick repair I have put a spot of RTV on the socket and pushed them back in to the little indicator light lense thingy's... and on the back of the speedo or tach.. RTV can be removed for bulb replacement..

I haven't seen his Ice Cream truck in any of the shows...... Yet..

Onyx,, too funny. My wife thinks Danny is a creep too.. But for some reason, I feel like he might be a really nice guy.. anyway... Happy New Year.. jojo

Thanks for posting again.. I would like to know what other differences you find, if any. Plus it is good for future questions about this.. are you saying the REPTO housing is 4.5" longer measuring at the seem on the engine block? if so then the tranny is set back 4.5 inches more than your '01 RD? which may result in a drive shaft change.. jojo

What a Wicked Pissahh.... Love this posting...
-
one thing you can do is use your DVOM, and find a good ground on the cab, and check for continuity on all the pins in the J-3 plug.. that may point you towards a short to ground.. are you familiar with how to read the wire codes on the white wires? It is actually easy to do, and really helps when you are checking the wires at a distance from the VECU.. jojo -
Yes sahh, That's wicked funny.. Aint no Cumby's down here.. no Sahh...

yes thats it...

Well since the D-Bags got President trump's tax info released.... Let's see all the current D-Bag tax record's.. Why not??? Come on... Nancy, Chuck, JOE, Hunter, Mayorkas, Kamala, just to name a few.. Just a thought.. Jojo

Onyx... I have to say... I hate these trucks... However, when you 'Post'.. You are diplomatic.. This is an area where you can 'Shine'.. Keep getting smarter about these 'POS' trucks.. You will help so many guys here in the NEAR future.. Jojo

God Bless you Vinny..... I wish there was a better way for you guys.. I WAS a truck mechanic for 25 years, and every time I see guys like you, with the frustration and High costs for repairs, I would kringe and Cry real tears, (On the Inside)... So Sorry... With respect.... Jojo

Bob,,, I live in a regular house too.. born in 1952... jojo
-
i know the tranny mounts are in the same spot on the Eatons,, just like Mack tranny's. The back boxes are different.. ...... RD 688-S/ 045719 Is a 2001 RD that i have worked on.. E-Tech with an 8LL.. This should be what you need to check and see if your tranny hangers are different.. No REPTO on this truck.. jojo

so when you turn the key to the ;on; position, that bulb doesnt light up during the self test?
-
Paul,,, hand built with wood at the site, as opposed to a manufactured house that is built in pieces inside a big wharehouse sized building.. Like how our trailer homes are built.. We also call these homes pre-fab houses.. kinda cool really... they are not subject to bad weather as they are being built..
-
All good... Catch you later.. jojo
-
The drive end that is in the block looks good.. the cable is what needs to be checked.. Is that the old cable in the picture? it comes from the back of the tach, through the firewall, and around the engine to that drive hub that you see.. jojo
-
They are just like a speedo drive on an older car or truck. push in and tighten the large knurled knob to hold it in place.. the end of the tach cable should have a keyed end that fits in the hole. it may be a square end and you put the correct plastic tip on it.. jojo
-
does the yellow lightning bolt come on too? Do you know how to get active codes using the cruise control?
-
I didnt look back, but do you have any fault codes for oil pressure or coolant?
-
forgive the silly question, but are there any loose bulbs that are just flopping around back there? yes I would expect LED to be brighter. the normal bulb is a #194. I assume you know that.. I doubt i'm helping, just curious I guess... Jojo
