    Felt kind of nostalgic seeing it, maybe next time you’ll be around and I can say “hello”.

    The last time I was there was the 1st time I had the mDrive replaced on the 1st Moore Mack. Took 2 weeks to swap a transmission, hope it doesn't take that long for a DEF sensor, a axle lock issue and a windshield wiper motor issue.
     
    dwells40 and JoeyJunk Thank this.

    I really don’t know, it was extensive enough that an engineer from PA was there today to put the stamp of approval on it. From what he explained to me, a loose connection somewhere throwing ghost codes all day, literally thousands is what he told me. I know a lot was replaced, but the two major items were a complete engine harness, as well as chassis.

    I have a question for my fellow Sweedish Dog pilots....do your windshield wipers stop if their above the intermittent setting when you open the driver's door? (Sorta a courtesy thing so you don't get splashed by the wiper spray when you're getting out). I never noticed either way until my intermittent wipers started stuttering and I had to use them on low speed most of the time.

    Yes they do. I guess it’s a courtesy thing for us drivers. Simple things in life make me feel wanted. Just like when a shipper or receiver gives us a porta potty to use in the summertime in Phoenix.

    I guess that wasn't an issue for the dealer to check on then, but my intermittent, and my mist wipe cycle stutters, almost like a relay cutting out for a split second(sometimes for more than a second or two) the wiper motor will stop mid sweep. Too much technology in these modern trucks.
