In afghanistan cat 3126 problems help asap!

Just a suggestion, but check and make sure you don't have the power wires crossed going to the ECM. Positive to + and negative to -

Seems like a simple thing but you'd be suprised. The motor will crank but the ECM won't allow it to fire and will throw all the codes since the sensors are getting reverse readings.

 

LCPL: Email the Marine Chief that I gave you on your inbox. He has several suggestions

 

I think it is awesome to see the Military mechanics using this forum to get some pointers/help to fix the problems they are having.. Very kool to see the civilians and soldiers working together...

 

LCPL Moon: Follows is a list of troubleshooting tips:
The best thing is for this Marine to use his chain of command and request a contact team to go look at the gear and if need be evac it for high Maint.


This fault code means the ECM has stopped responding to the periodic requests for information from the GSC.

LCPL Moon: It sounds like you need to pull the front gate guards and put them on your generator, if you ever want electricity. I am glad to hear you got the MEP system operational.

Be safe

 

Appears to be like not enough security on your products, a garbage bag in your gas container really? ANA sabotage!!

 

I was just about to say either those moron ANA or ANP...

When I was there if we had major problems with a MRAP we would just swap a motor into it from one of the many we had blown up. I was in Now Zad and we had many blown up trucks so lots and lots of spare parts but they kept blowing our trucks up on the left rear or front right.
