    axle temp problems are almost always corrosion at the sender connection. Get an infrared temp gun for $70. Then you can verify axle temps, wheel bearing temp, tire temp, brake drums, engine block, great tool. The list of uses goes on and on.

    It sure sounds like a sensor failure to me. To be certain is buy a cheap infrared temp gun and check. 30 bucks or so for a temp gun. A tool that's extremely useful for diagnosing problems.

    Edit: looks like @mtoo beat me to it.

    Assuming you don't have a 2500 dollar a month truck payment you could work part time and make good money. Thats a great area. By gross do you mean total to the truck pay? 15k is a bit above the fleet average, but i always say I'm not settling for average and don't care about average numbers. If 15 is tote goal you can do it here. Tho it might mean only seeing the house Friday evening through early am Monday morning.
