Re: Looking at a used truck tonight

I concur. Buy a cheap meter. Once you have a meter, it will be one of the first tools you grab in cases such as this.

Re: Looking at a used truck tonight

I would not do that. I wonder if you could simply put a jumper on the fuse block to supply continuous power to the horn circuit. (make sure you're not bypassing the fuse)

Re: Looking at a used truck tonight

I don't think the problem is in the column anyway. Unplug the horn relay and check the voltages at the terminals. That's where your problem lies I bet.

Re: Looking at a used truck tonight

That's odd. I've never heard of that problem. I do know that strange things happen when fuses blow though, power crossfeeds backwards through the common grounds. If it was my truck I'd start with...

Re: Looking at a used truck tonight

The body of the adjuster should remain stationary. The only part that should move (when installed) is the screw & the toothed wheel. Each time you firmly press the brake when backing up the foot on...

Re: Looking at a used truck tonight

Yeah, they're easy to disassemble. It just unscrews. Make sure you keep them separate, as they are different for the right and left side of the car (one has reverse threads) When positioned in the...

Re: Looking at a used truck tonight

Re: Looking at a used truck tonight

That's odd. Usually the body rusts out far before there's any loss of frame integrity due to rust. Is the truck from an area that aggressively uses salt in the winter?

Re: Looking at a used truck tonight

The fuel injected 350 is a fantastic engine. That's what I have in my 98 Sierra. 13 years old, nearly 170,000 miles, and it idles so smooth & quiet that you can't hear it running from 10 feet away.
