I'm a rookie driver in early stages of planning. I thought with a certificate of eligibility the VA would make it easier. But then I had to remind...
Going through this right now. Even with a VA loan they want 2 years of work history as a truck driver. If I was getting paid hourly, I'd qualify....
Hyperinflation will just raise the prices of everything (goods & services) exponentially. You might get paid more, but you might not necessarily...
My tech days are pretty much over. Haven't turned a wrench professionally (USAF) in several years. If I get desperate I may get back in it. I'm...
No brother, but I'm working towards moving in that direction. Hence why I'm on the trucking forum (to move).
If the harness is going through the door jam, it could be binding in there. Put a test light on the starter and have someone open and close the...
If the relay is normally closed (allows power to the starter at all times), it's supposed to do that. Next step, turn the key on, and see if the...
Going to the input, yes. Depends on which fuses, too. Some components down range may be powered on at all times. The component gets switched...
No problem. Also, keep in mind. If the wire is crimped/damaged inside the harness, it's likely that other wires will have been damaged. You may...
Since the key is off there will not be any power going to your starter (unless it's normally closed) until you turn the key on. If you're that...
So it sounds like the wire could be crimping, possibly inside the harness. You will have to isolate the wire and test it the length of the circuit...
What challenges did you face finding another trucking job after being fired with 4 preventables? Luckily you were still able to land on your feet.
Was the visibility bad? How are they not seeing lights stopped ahead?
This thread speaks to me. I have a CDL; got it in '09. Decided not to pursue driving concerned about the recession. Instead got a degree through...
Make sure you have the right relay. The driver or another tech could have installed it. Otherwise... If you replaced the relay and/or you're...
Sounds like a short in where the relay is plugged into. Short to power. Sometimes the relay receptacle gets so hot it melts. You have some...
They do this in the military. They'll volunteer someone to watch all day. Nerve wracking.
Don't they also have driver facing cameras onboard?
