    I just bought this 2002 Colombia. Prev owner was using Qual com. he thought he removed all the parts and I can't find any parts left over. Here is the problem It keeps telling me I have six msgs. Where or how do I get rid of this thing once and for all? Other than sell the truck of course. :biggrin_25519:

    "It keeps telling me", so that means you have the box and you are reading this on the screen, right ? So, therefore. he did not remove all the parts, right ? Simply unplug it and toss it in a dumpster......BAMM, it's gone, out of your life.

    Rather unusual for a company to not remove that equipment.

    No screen everything gone. voice come thru the speakers. All the parts are gone like I said. Is there a tie into the truck computer some where under the hood I can check? Never had a qual com and never want one. Any other ideas?:biggrin_25519:

    You sure you bought a legal truck ? Seller didn't say he will mail you the title later, I hope.

    Well, let me think for a sec, there's a blck box usually under the mattress, a satellite on the rear of the sleeper on top, and wiring in-between.

    Yep, it's tied in with the ECM. Either by the door pillar by the driver's seat or passenger dash side.
