Dealing with bad breakdowns (p2)

You do know that's the harness can be repaired.

Obviously you have it ordered but no matter what tell them you want those items back into your hands and have them put that into the work order, then take the harness and get it repaired,

 

They're just wires. No reason why a broken or damaged wire can't be repaired. If you had an ohm meter/multimeter you could probably pinpoint the bad wire in a couple minutes.

 

MY 95 KW has ABS on it, Drivers steer sensor went out. Was causing issues, cut the wires going to it. Ran it that way 1125 miles home. Replaced sensor and all's well. It may pull just a little with that one not working. But was not an issue.
Also 1994 new Freightliner, ABS light came on in OR. Got to west Tn to the shop. They found out the bearing has a little slack in it. That was making the gap on the tone ring just wide enough. That it screwed up that sensor reading. Less then 5000 miles on that truck at that time.

 

Wow $800 kinda sucks. But the flip side is you didn't have pay $300appx for hotel room. And you are with money from loads instead of out of pocket or cc. But that 45% is steep if you want to run hard. Not so bad if you taking it easy.

 

We’ve got a 1995 FL, a 1994 Pete, and 1994 KW. None of them have ABS.
