    Charcoal canister question (7.4)

    I'm jumping the gun here as I don't even have the truck at my house right now if I were there but I figured I'd ask this question while its on my mind. Recent purchase of a '96 C3500 Crew Cab Dually. It has a few issues I'm working through but the main was is getting the transmission rebuilt...

    Dome light question… doesn’t match issues I’ve found searching

    I’m unsure what it would do keyless. Truck is equipped but I didn’t get a FOB with it. But key in door open light comes on, door closes stays on for 30’seconds then shuts off even if it’s running

    Dome light question… doesn’t match issues I’ve found searching

    Go hop in n try?? I'm not speculating on what I think its doing, im telling what its doing lol I would assume like most vehicles it would either turn off with the doors or have a time delay like it does… but I’d think key in would over ride the time delay. The key has no effect on dome light...

    Dome light question… doesn’t match issues I’ve found searching

    So if I were to hop in and drive my done light should be on for the first 30 seconds down the road? That sounds unsafe at night and I don’t remember my ‘98 work truck I had previously doing that

    Dome light question… doesn’t match issues I’ve found searching

    ‘96 CC. New to me and been chasing electrical issues due to poor aftermarket stuff like stereos and brake controller. When I got it the interior lights didn’t work at all. Fixed some wiring and they work now. Problem is they only turn off after a 30 second delay. When I open a door they turn...

    Ignition turns without key… new replacement does the same thing

    Yeah that seems like it “could” be broken so maybe that was the initial cause of all of this. May just leave it off lol

    Ignition turns without key… new replacement does the same thing

    I can shift without the brake. Since you seem knowledgeable on this area I’ll ask you. There are two solenoid/rods that connect at the bottom there at that white piece… the black one in my truck comes off very easily. I’ve bumped it off a few times working down there. What is the function of...

    Ignition turns without key… new replacement does the same thing

    well after lots of chasing things and replacing things and trips to the junkyard it was the short park lockout cable was out of adjustment haha. I guess a previous owner forced the ignition and broke it so it worked anyway instead of fixing/figuring it out. It was in park but the ignition...

    Ignition turns without key… new replacement does the same thing

    I did some troubleshooting with it today and really didn’t come up with anything. I went to the junkyard and even tried another ignition switch. Same results. So I tried to think of outside of the box problems. I had the little white clip on top detached and decided to get my big head up...

    Ignition turns without key… new replacement does the same thing

    I’m certain I ordered one for a ‘96 but I’ll have to verify it is actually correct. I’ll verify your other questions tomorrow. I’m not sure if I noticed if it did it with cylinder removed or not.

    Ignition turns without key… new replacement does the same thing

    Looking for some input on my ignition lock cylinder. ‘96 3500 The original one a key was not needed. You could start with no key, remove the key while running… whatever you wanted to do. I got a new cylinder and installed it. When installed the key feels rough going into and out of the...

    Fixing fuel gauge after deleting 2nd fuel tank?

    I know I am reviving a year old topic but I am new here. Im trying the search option but not coming up with much. I just purchased a '96 CDLB Dually. Truck is very solid Texas truck up here in PA so it's a rare score but I am finding it to be a wiring nightmare. I'll be asking a bunch of...
