Remove the cables at the battery(s) and scrape them clean. It certainly sounds like cable connection most likely at the battery

I must be tired none of this makes sense to me, power bar test on what scale? not live current?

The only differences in Reverse would be a bit higher pressures within the transmission and the direction engine moves on the mounts. Weird problem would be wiring harness and difficult to find, also as mentioned in something binding in the rear. Since the brakes were done rear it would be good...

I can't quite decide with limited information. If all else seems normal does it also happens cold + when its fully warmed up? Where I'm at the Auto Zone and O'Riellys hand you a scanner to plug in and then read it with their software or give you a printout, sometimes it is helpful. What engine...

I don't do Facebook for some reason, enjoyed Caravan1  before my work needed me back, hoping to stop in with them this weekend some.

In my opinion the safest action to take on the road is increased following distance. I learned that whats behind is less important than where you are in the lane and whats beside you. I learned that if you center the lane close to directly below your seat maybe where your right leg is as it...

Compression Gauges (2) found in storage and put together a small set of tools, Next mission figuring when I can break away. I have intentions of meeting up with the caravan too  and maybe synchronize with others here too. Likely sometime after Xmas for me. Not sure if my assistance is needed but...

I'll report back after searching my storage unit this wknd,  (compression gauge)also my schedule has been less flexible recently but still plan on coming that way. Work (four letter word) keeps calling!

Remembering that a vacuum gauge is a handy tool to verify a restricted exhaust, also indication of compression and timing. Maybe another clue to determine whats happening. I didn't here any mention of miles on vehicle over 150K? 350 cubic inch engine? Rough running I would pull plug wires at...

" It's like making a pet out of a coyote" hahaha!:D

Failures and repairs required in high vibration areas usually result from a rushed poor installation. Then it can be difficult to locate and take hours to diagnose if not very obvious. I have crimped soldered and used heat shrink but the best results are a product of better tools and materials...

I certainly understand the situation, I also experienced the same and this explains how it worked out. On day one I arrived mid-afternoon and setup camp trying out a new setup first run. I was happy with the spot and didn't know what to expect with the group. I saw others spread out but not a...

My California Class B comercial driver's license with no restrictions and no endorsement allows operation of a heavy bus gvrw over26,000lbs standard shift or automatic including airbrakes but no passengers. Also requires a current dmv medical on file with dmv + copy on hand This would be used...

I researched a bit to see if tread wear rating would be on light truck tires and it may not be. On passenger car tires it is required and it also stamped on the sidewall. Then I took a look at my car and truck tires and only the car had the rating. I always consider that and when I look at new...

bullfrog Makes my brain hurt thinking on this one! I can confirm 12volts battery separate was in the passenger side rear just inside on 2010 model Prius The electric battery pack under the back seat I believe but I didn't actually look to see.  I would expect to charge the 12volt would not be...

I see a great amount of knowledge and advice here on the forum so all the details are important. It's common for that era vehicles show faults after years, hopefully minor and I'm sure worrying for most. I hope to pass thru at some point next month and willing to help with advice and direction...

As simple as I can: Generally diagnostic scanner OBDll used after 1996 works best to gather information to be used when a problem already exists. When yellow check engine or Service engine soon dash light is on there is a code stored called a hard code which you could read and research, or erase...

Some of the group may be on the move also, I think Wednesday is about the 2weeks limit.

I recently went on the road a few weeks to test out the basics and was able to decide what would be nice upgrades. I would like outside patio area with shade and table, also stove and pans beyond my backpacking kit. A shower tent / bathroom seems appropriate. I really didn't need much to be OK I...

My 2 cents it's measures liquid and dissimilar metals which makes a battery of sorts. Years past I have measured coolant in the radiator with a voltmeter too. My understanding was checking acidic content so lower was better. Brake fluid absorbs water from the atmosphere and it lowers the boiling...
