I am low on fluid. I did confirm the mist comes from the pump. I will watch the level closer and find a kit. Does it matter what hydraulic fluid I use? Thank you for your help.

The cab lifted fine until today. 1. I get a mist from around the air/hydraulic pump. 2. I am also unable to raise the cab using the hand pump. I was thinking I needed to rebuild the pump based on other threads. Is the pump being bad why the hand pump is also not working? Thanks.

Thank you

I need insurance for a 1997 LMTV. I do not have a garage for it. Is there a company you can recommend?

Ronmar, I go back to work and will get back over there to the truck this weekend. I hear one or two clicks in the direction of the PDP. I thought it was two. I have not heard any clicks under the cab. I will get more information, and let you know. Thanks

My 1997 M1081A0 will not crank. I have not tried to use jumpers or anything to bypass anything to try to get started. The truck will now power up with the low air alarm, oil light in the dash is on, and N N on the transmission controller is there after the K2 relay was replaced. When I press...

Thanks. I want to also thank @Ronmar for pictures of the Bosch relays and part numbers.

Yes. Is this correct?

I wanted to add this for anybody new who may see this. You can get 2 different relays to cover the 4 called out on the PDP cover. The 12 volt is Bosch part number 0332209152. The 24 volt is 0332209204.

Thank you. I have the correct voltages at x1 and x2 as you explained with the switch on and off. The K2 relay was bad. I replaced it and I am getting the lights etc and NN on the Allison display. I am missing the K26 relay. I see it is in your diagram so I assume it is needed. Do you...

The truck is a 1997 M1081. Yes. It is the rocker switch above the start button. I starting using the trouble shooting manual 20-1. step E2.2 . Thanks for the information on the brake. Since there were no lights, I wondered if there was a safety switch. I have no lights on the dash...

I have no power when I turn on the master stop? The packing brake will not pull up. Will will prevent it from getting power? No test lamps, nothing showing batteries are connected.

Thanks again Ronmar. I appreciate you for taking the time to help me. I was able to find a few drawings that show how two batteries are connected. Thanks, Paul

Thanks Ronmar. The oil in the truck looks good and, I didn’t see any residue on the truck from losing oil. Still it is a mystery why the broken fitting wasn’t replaced and some lines were left disconnected. The truck is intact with only a door latch missing. What do you recommend I do...

I bought a truck recently and some of the air hoses on the air compressor were disconnected. There is one small metal line at the front of the compressor near the radiator that is broken. I attached a picture. What is this line my finger is touching? What actions should I take? Thanks in...
