    HMMWV turn signal woes REDUX

    Final SITREP on this. I did a bunch of research. Got confused. Ended up calling for help. I got some excellent advice and resources. Ended up replacing the switch, which I think was either worn out or screwed up by me monkeying with it. Also put in proper LED light in the indicator light...

    Thanks for that tip!

    HMMWV turn signal woes REDUX

    The Nartron pic was just generic. I don't have one to shoot. The light switch itself was the one on the truck when I got it at auction. Green with desert tan chipping off of it all over. I think it's the real deal. I've had it apart three times now. I'm not against replacing it. And I...

    HMMWV turn signal woes REDUX

    It doesn’t blink when in Four way mode (turn signal lever all the way up) either. so if this points to a bad flasher, I will replace it. Thanks! I appreciate it

    HMMWV turn signal woes REDUX

    I may want LED headlights some day. So I can’t see totally abandoning LED lights. I would hate to buy a solid state flasher just to find that I didn’t solve the problem though.

    My flasher unit looks like this one: Are you suggesting the I need this one?: I guess it acts as a ballast for the LEDs or something like that?

    HMMWV turn signal woes REDUX

    I knew that this might be an issue. Just forgot to mention it. There is a mix. I did what I suspect a lot of newbies do. No RECENT changes before all this started up, but yes. There is a mix.

    HMMWV turn signal woes REDUX

    I know this is a common enough issue, but I am at wits end. I have the manual, have read the manual, and still have no solution. My turn signals have become erratic. I have the original non-cancelling switch. I can start up, test the turn signals, have everything work fine, and drive off...

    Thank you for the reply. I know it was years ago, but I have a gage problem now, and you pointed me to the exact page in the TM, and I really appreciate it.

    HMMWV Headlight Grounds location

    So, I took my meter out along with my wiring diagrams. I have power coming into the three lever switch on circuit 15A. But no power out from terminal M to 16A, the high beam switch and thence to headlights. And no power out to 40A from terminal B, the panel lights. So, would you...

    Crap. I wonder if they take returns on electrical stuff. I really appreciate your input, Mogman. Experience pays off.

    I've definitely spent some time staring at that post. It has a lot of good info in it.

    HMMWV Headlight Grounds location

    Yes. And I was just hoping that the source of my new switch sold me a legit one. The screws/threads, etc. all seem to be good machine screws, and not wood screws, etc. I haven't opened it up. I guess I should.

    Where are the headlights grounded? Is there a spot on frame or other steel part? Different from the other lights? Have a 2006 M1097R1. Having fits with headlights. I have the wiring diagram printed out. I am not getting power to the headlights with the switch in proper position. Oddly, I...

    Electrical Gremlins. HMMWV M1097R1.

    Ok, this is the update. Thanks to anyone still riding along... I have power to the headlights and the tail lights, and the dash lights. I tested the big connector that goes into the back of the light master switch. I have two master switches. One came with the vehicle. The other I...

    electrical wire diagram

    That is just ridiculous. Seriously. Talk about mature technology. They can load it up and scan away. You could buy a printer for that much dinero

    electrical wire diagram

    That's a brilliant idea. I just printed on six pages and pieced together with tape. But a professionally printed one, with lamination sounds pretty dang awesome. I will have to check with the printshop here in town.

    Electrical Gremlins. HMMWV M1097R1.

    So, I pulled the brake signal light switch. I have 24V on one line and 0 on the other in the vehicle wiring. So I am sure there is voltage getting to the switch. The switch articulates smoothly, but the resistance across the range of the switch activating is not just O and 24V. It kind of...

    Electrical Gremlins. HMMWV M1097R1.

    OK, checking back in. Had to do a thang with the grand kids over the last few days. Gulf Shores, AL. Pretty nice place. Anyway, my brake lights are always on. And brake lights are the last thing holding me up on having the light gremlins extinguished. I think I need, to add reverse...
