220vac is simply 2 legs of 110vac and a ground/neutral. Sometimes like on newer (for a lot of years now) house appliances, like a clothes dryer, will have 4 prongs. 2 of them are your basic 110vac legs and 1 ground, 1 neutral. I don't believe there are ready made "converter" plugs available...

Oh, OK, no problem.. I misunderstood your post to mean it was wrong to post it here like it was a violation of terms or something..

Thanks.. Don't know why I didn't think to look for something like that. Almost everything is online these days, no reason this shouldn't be as well. I'll take a look at it later tonight.

What makes you say that? This is a site full of people that buy both new and used trucks for commercial use in the US all the time, is it not? Presumably, some of those people may have purchased a truck from Canada and gone through the process, whatever that process is. I assume there is a...

I have been watching this thread since day 1 with some interest. I was hoping there would be several responses, I'm surprised there has only been 1. My question is simple: What does it take to purchase a truck from Canada and bring it back into the US to use it commercial here? Specifically a...

They, (frame shop) did an outstanding job! Honestly, it rides better now than before! Entire rear suspension was replaced. All driveshafts trued, balanced, all new U joints and hangers. 2 new rear wheels, 4 new rear tires (and I replaced the front rubber at same time).

Remember it? How could I forget that nightmare! Was yours intermittent like mine, or continuous?

Yeah, me too! LOL. Technically speaking I didn't disable the DRLs which was my initial plan, (again not because I have anything against DRLs, in fact I actually like having them, but the 9 volts issue was killing the LED bulbs) It's more like I "Alternatively abled" them. Thinking about it...

The solution: After determining that Hino did just about everything they could to insure that you always had your DRLs on when driving and that in DRL mode your LED bulbs won't last long I have come up with with 2 solutions. Plan #1) This one is a pain and almost certian not to be a viable...

Yes, sure did. Been meaning to post how I did it. It's pretty simple but requires some basic wiring. Later tonight when I have more time I'll write it up and post it.

I'm sure Greasy T or 123 will respond soon but in the meantime.... 1) Check for proper operation of the fan clutch, it can appear to be working because the fan is turning but not be fully engaged and therefore not actually moving nearly enough air. 2) Carefully inspect the front of the...

Pilot/FJ gives a 1/2 credit for 25 gallons. When I was running a dually I quit fueling anyplace else because only there could I get a shower 25gal at a time....

Oh boy, that sounds like fun... I'll look at that and also maybe following the wire to where it goes and intercept it on its way if access is easier. Email address sent! THANK YOU

[email protected] Thank you!

Wire surgery.. no problem. Assuming that works as expected if I ever go back to regular bulbs I could put a switch in that line to have or not have DRL as wanted. And thanks for confirming what I was thinking about the wire drawing. I looked at it but decided there was more info needed to make...

Maybe it would be easier to just find a way to feed the DRL 12 volts?

Truck running, parking brake off, DRLs on, Headlight switch off Removed the DRL fuse: DRLs remain on. - operated the normal headlight switch, no change. (Didn't expect any) Replaced fuse. Removed the fuse directly above the DRL fuse. It is marked "Headlight dim relay" - low beams/DRL out...

Good morning! Hope this helps... VIN: 5PVN V8JV 972 S 50450

Updates?

Bingo... THAT'S exactly the problem. At least I THINK it is... I buff/polish/renew the headlight lenses every 8-12 months to keep them as clear as possible. I also have high quality brand name bulbs of legal DOT approved wattage. Yet the light on road always seems dim and the heat generated by...
