    2007 M2 106 Electrical Problems

    i'm glad you got it fixed without having to take it in. new trucks like yours have multi-plexed wiring.one wire doing so many different things.new is nice, but i'll try to stick with my 2000 sterling tractor/10 wheeler. fuses can act really weird. i had the same problem, replaced a good fuse...

    Everybody getting paid?

    dave, i understand what you are saying.but where else do we go to communicate with each other? i didnt mean to sound harsh,but it seems like the carriers forget that without us, the owner-operators and fleet owners, they wouldnt have nobody to haul their freight, thus not making money.i just...

    it was a loose wire not making proper contact with the connector for that particular fuse. and then a pinched wire in the harness under the dashbord, by the windshield. not easy to get to, and many swear words later, i fixed it. and then sold the truck.
