Challenger Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 I think your're right, its the torque limit switch. Ive only seen that wire being used once. Maybe someone cut it off to use the connector some where else on the truck.

Challenger Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 You lost me, Im confused. I thought you just found a cut wire, and werent having any problems. I have a few questions-1--Are you having a problem? If so what is the problem?2--Was there work done on your truck recently? What work was completed?

vinny933 Posted November 13, 2015 Author Share Posted November 13, 2015 sorry new trans was put in . seems they used another wire for reverse horn and its on the same fuse as the clutch fan now , pretty sure the wire I found is suppose to be for reverse horn, if I take fuse 42 out 30 amp fuse the wire I found goes dead, everything works but I don't think reverse horn is suppose to be on that circuit,fuse 41 . floorboard is coming off tomorrow. I don't like things butcher like that Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/42553-found-cut-wire-by-trans/#findComment-311296 Share on other sites More sharing options...
