Today was a interesting day, doesn't help that I have had a cold all week and it is really slowing me down.
Goal was to get the interior in and checked off the list, change all fluids and get the truck running to hear the new exhaust and see if any issues would come up, and power up the air ride to let it go through it's self learning mode..
We were having issues getting it to fire so then we went to air system to walk away before I got any more angry.
We were a little off on sensor mounting on the driver side and the bolt clipped the brake line and snapped the arm off.. Not a big deal but a set back. Actually I don't think we ever tested it with the brake line, live and learn.. So then I un powered the system and left it aired up just to check for leaks, and we were good there so we wen't on to the next
Which was back to why the truck wouldn't start.. Found the relay under the dash for the start button, it was working fine so no issues there, decided to crawl under the truck and check all power wires, and figured since I was there I would check the selenoid wire for power,, had my guy get in the truck and told him to test it.. Well for some reason he decided to push the brake pedal.. Normally wouldn't be a big deal right? Well we haven't finished running the front brake lines yet and the line was right above my head and blasted me right in the face with brake fluid.. I wasn't to happy at this point.. So walked away yet another time to calm down. Came back to the truck and started taking things apart, took the fender off and then decided to track the selenoid wire back, and found a plug, so then I just jumped it there and got the truck to fire right up.. So at least we were moving forward. So pretty much narrowed it down to anything in between the plug and firewall relay.. Double checked grounds. Which I found hard to believe they would fail as I threaded in exhaust studs into the rail and then welded the perimeter.. Pretty strong ground if you ask me.. So anyways.. I had him in the truck pushing the buttons to test things by the box and then it fired up,, Loose relay.. After all of that and a brake fluid bath it was just that I must have bumped a relay loose while test fitting things.. Either way it's fixed and we can move on to the next problem.. lol.
I did manage to get over 90% of the interior in as well, I have a few more audio wires to run so I left lower cover off and I can't put the over head display in yet because I am modifying it to accept my air controller.. Which is over half finished as well..
