what was the dealer called in Louis ville

I was having issues with my turn signals in my hood. Turned out to be a burnt connecting plug. I would check all your terminals. I did notice that the connections on the bulbs were getting burnt after awhile and that is what made me trace the harness and find the faulty plug.
The other thing you might want to replace is the flasher relay. Usually very cheap and is a common cause of weird signal flashes.Antonovich Thanks this. -
I didn't see you mention what engine you have in it. Or I missed it.
Take it to whatever shop the engine is.
I took my 05 w900 to cummins. They charged me I think $300. I don't remember the price but it wasn't bad.
They had a software zapper for the password. SUPPOSEDLY. Don't know if it's actually true. But they zapped the password. Then erased the computer and reloaded it without anything governed. Took, about an hour. Your post said 5 minutes and that's not true.
Anyways. It's good money spent. Everything wide open. I had more power and better fuel economy. That told me with everything governed. Power was included.
Swift owned it before the company I was working for got it. After working there awhile. I got a contract to buy it from the company. Unfortunately. The FBI shut the company down shortly after. -
The engine is a Cat C15. My mechanic has already cracked the password and reset it. No more speed limiter, no more idle shutdown.
I'm looking into this weird sporadic flasher thing. I'm guessing there's a wire loose somewhere though I'm not sure where to look. This is my fuse box. The relays are those big black blocks, correct? What and where exactly should I look for the problem?
Fuse box

What dealer you. your truck from

Everything is labeled. I can see the flasher relay on the far right, and the turn signal relays are the 2 on the bottom right.
Where can I buy the relays on the road?
-
This is my flasher relay on the right side of the fuse box. All the other relays are those black box types, this one just has 2 wires coming out... -
