SOLD today to a guy from Reno, NV who vacations and has a second home in Baja. He is building a customer camper to fit on the flatbed. Sale will complete next week and he can announce his purchase and start his build.

Joint Connectors j/c 1-3 and Optional connector PICS for your reference (and mine) On the passenger side you can see the three big joint connectors. Basically they take a hot from one circuit and spread it to one or more other circuits. I know J/C3 is the one with the brown and gray connector...

Thanks for your help and encouragement...this was quite a journey!

VICTORY! and it only took 3 full days :) On the drivers side of the dash near the brake fluid container there is a Joint of the Main Harness Connector J10. It is labeled "Optional Connector". It had that dreaded GW wire, so I disconnected it and viola, no short on the GW wire. My truck was...

@gait - I have now named this process "The Hunt for GW" (like the Hunt for Red October, but no subs). I have made progress. I found the junction box for cab vs chassis wiring and then located the connector that contained the two wires from the High Current Fuse box for the tail lights. One is...

@czechsix - did Aluminess build your A pillars guards?

Ok, I contacted roofrack.com.au and here is their reply Peter Fazzini <peter@roofrack.com.au> 3:21 PM (4 hours ago) to dave Yes, I can manufacture and ship these parts to your door. The cost of the units is $242 each plus allow for a bundle of 4 units $310...

For such a simple circuit, I am sure having huge challenges finding the root cause. Maybe I am doing something wrong. I am testing by taking a volt meter across the fuse connection. If the problem is solved, my meter should read 0 volts, but while I have a wire or switch going to ground I am...

@sprucemonster - yes I have a box, so I will investigate that connector. This is certainly a possibility @Gait - thanks for the continued education and advise. I feel like I am hunting down a ghost. The tail light relay is in the high current fuse box. As I understand the diagram, power comes...

More clues: when my head lamps are in the off position and the truck is running (essentially on DRL system), still don't have tail lamps, but my 15A fuse does not blow. So I don't think the problem is in the DLR system, but I am at a loss to figure out where it is. I have torn the dash apart to...

That's exactly what I envisioned. I found a dealer in AU http://roofrack.com.au/stone-guard-truck-fuso-mitsubishi-fuso-canter-windscreen-protector.html I am starting to think dlh62c might have the answer with clearplex. Still researching. Anyone using clearplex or similar treatment?

Good ideas...I disconnected all the wiring I disturbed, but I am the second owner and have begun a detailed search for any wire protection that does not appear to be factory.

Troubleshooting this is moving beyond my ability to read this electrical diagram. I am home now and have access to the 2007 repair manual. I have learned one more thing...this truck has a daytime running light (DRL) system. When the truck is started and the parking break is off, the headlights...

Who built your A pillar guards...I might want to add those as well.

@czechsix - count me in

@pugslyyy...so if I were going to have one made, might you also want one?

On my last trip, we took two rocks to the windshield. The second rock created a small star on the base of the windshield. Then the crack started. I tried to stop it with super glue and clear nail polish...every day I drive, the crack gets bigger. So I am replacing the windshield. I would like to...

Rigs and Roads My father in law joined us on the trip. He recently converted a 2016 Mercedes 4x4 Sprinter. At 78 he is going strong and by the way...he still works. Hard work and healthy living are his secrets. Here are some pics of both rigs on this trip. Road conditions varied greatly!

and now for some pics... The interior was painted white door panels. The next two pics show the dining area as I was getting ready to remove the panels. Note the extra refrigerator is under the left side bunk. It's 135L dc unit and works perfectly. The seat area has a hinged lid which makes...

Spent 15 days traveling and winter camping Prior to heading out, I decided to upgrade the interior. I stripped the white painted interior and replaced with stained Luan panels sporting 3 coats of varathane. I added four overhead cabinets in the bedroom and built organizers for the rear cargo...
