I sure wish I knew a way to get free money and medical supplies for my wife and myself.. We sit here tore up, she is in a sling, and I am on crutches, but border jumper's get everything they need... so far my injury has cost about $1300.00, when you add in my time out of work, and its only been 5 days.. Meanwhile my Mexican neighbor has 3 kids, no husband, owns everything, drives a (Brand new) $35,000.00 Lexus, her oldest is a drug dealer, he has a 2020 Silverado Z-71 and a Newer Mustang GT, the middle son (17) has a baby and a house... HOW????????? I am using my small savings to cover everything.. I want the freebie's.. Hell I was in the Army for a short time, and have always been a U.S. citizen... anyway... You know how I do.... I get pissed.... But I am full of love, just not for losers.... jojo

can you run the truck in the yard, and duplicate the issue? I really think there is a loose wire, maybe you can tug on the wires on the back side of the suspect socket and see if it pulls out easy... these diags. can really be a B!..H!... jojo

Sweet... I'm drinking wine from a box, w/O.J. its a mellow buzz.. and so far I havent fallen...

Well, I am a Yanky... I was born in Newyawk...

Thanks guy's... I t's really bad and its hard to walk. however today is much better than yesterday.. Glad I pulled a pair of crutch's out of a scrap pile a few years ago... I'm usin 'em.. jojo

Yeah, he could do a ''Spotto" thingy...

loose connections,,,,, short to ground on a power wire( could just be a rubbed through spot) swap the relay with another that is the same and re-test, for it heating up.. jojo

I guess this is shop talk,?? over a few beers..... I used the wrong jug of fuel to light a small brush pile, Sunday afternoon, and when I lit it, it exploded and sprayed directly back at my legs.... I feel like an idiot, but it was an accident.. Here's what happened..

I thought it was behind the center dash panel. It makes a loud click when you turn the key on..

It truly is a brotherhood... Jojo

There should also be a relay on the firewall near the center as well as a ground breaker, it is black and round. It is just grounds.

It's under the kick panelon the right side. You sure the acc relay isn't loose or failing?

I see I sent the wrong link for your truck.. I sent vmac 3... Sorry..jojo

Heck there could be a dozen issues, do you lose any other elec functions? I wonder about any relays that are getting hot. Did you inspect the F.I.C. Module?

yes, that happens too much.. I wish folks would post the solutions.. I guess you have some elec. diag. to do. I have book, but I cant post pics anymore.. jojo

hopefullu you will find the procedure to test the data lines, I beleive they are all white, and not yellow and green like later years..

ok,, there are a few ways to tell, if it Vmac 1 or 2.. If when you shut the key, and all electric power goes off instantly.... VMAC1,,, if there is a delay, VMAC 2.. Yes, it is not VMAC 3..

are you losing fuel prime? due to a loose fitting, or dry rot fuel line, loose connection at the tank outlet hose, and it is sucking air.. when it cuts off, have you pulled the fuel filters to see if the level is too low..? Mack Truck VMACIII 1998 Fault Codes List .. I just found out that my folder with a ton of info is gone off my computer, so I cant look at the 6-2 code flowchart..

Minor..... Too funny... jojo

Cool story Paul.. jojo

Thank you.. I'm healing, just bored.. sittin in front of the T.V. and B.M.T. jojo
