    E4od and the brake light

    I believe the brake light will also come on when your low on brake fluid as well Don’t quote me on that though!, I’ll have to look in my book but there are several different indicators that use the brake light as a warning to the driver that something is up with your truck

    Intermittent starter problem

    Ok, I had this issue and when I bought the solenoid nothing changed , the unit that controls the neutral safety switch on the e40d trans was out of position and had to be repositioned for the truck to start (turbo piping clearance/rubbing) Ended up replacing both of them 6 months later after...

    Intermittent starter problem

    If yours was “out” or not working you would be able to turn the key go under the hood and jump it at the solenoid on the passenger fender Do you have a multimeter? And a auto trans? Might want to check voltage at the solenoid and starter when you turn the key before you start throwing parts at it

    @Cubey your rt dry camping is cheaper than hook ups obviously would have to see if it is feasible or not , but his price range for a slide in camper seemed high to me so then who would care about 40 a night in hook ups lol,

    trans fluid level after being towed

    @slyhog022056 , well the trailer should of been disconnected, the guy who towed you should have done that, I would take pics of the tongue jack damaged and send it to the company’s manager cuz that’s some bullshit Anyways . Seems like you lost 8+quarts of ATF Keep adding ATF till you see it...

    trans fluid level after being towed

    @slyhog022056 Is your “cold reading” when the truck is on ? First start of the day？ E4od trans holds 16.5 quarts roughly , and if you got towed they took the driveshaft off , but I don’t see why or how that effects oil level that drastically ? I took mine off recently to do the center support...

    @Randy Bush To test for a bad/faulty booster ,(vac gauge hooked up ) when the truck is running , press down on the brake and hold it, see if needle moves , do this test once lightly then as if you are at a light When you release the pedal and it returns to its resting position pull up or...

    Brake problems

    @Randy Bush can you clarify your response , is that 15 in/hg ? If it is then I believe you have a leak because that’s very low should be getting 22+ with a new vac pump, Ok 1. What happens to the needle when you press the brake at idle? 2. After you turn the truck off does your system hold...

    Brake problems

    @dgr Hmmmmmm ok a good manual hydraulic test is in order then While the truck is off , press repeatedly till all the vacuum is out and you have just a hard/firm pedal and you can’t hear anymore hissing from the booster STAND on the brake pedal with 134 Nm of force which is about 99 ft/lbs...

    Brake problems

    @dgr , correct I agree it’s a leak (hydraulic or vacuum ) just curious to see how his system is running Because if he has solid brakes when the truck is off but falls when the truck is on that would lead towards a vacuum leak don’t you think? Doesn’t hurt or cost anything it’s a free test

    Brake problems

    @Randy Bush Hmmm interesting, have you replaced all the rubber hoses that are suppose to be holding vacuum? Have you hooked up a vac gauge to your system and seen what happens to the needle when the truck is on and you depress the brake ? How much vacuum does your system hold when idling ?
