    That's a little too much for me, right now. I just need basic software to read codes, and tell me what's what, having cummins insite, and Hino dx2 is an added bonus, but I don't think fully necessary right now. But I could be mistaken.

    No I'm talking about the prolink iq or the snapon prolink. I'm trying to understand if I buy the prolink if I would need an additional software or license for each truck/engine. Would you recommend the prolink iq, or usb link/ Bluetooth link? I pretty much just need something to work with both...

    I've heard of aliexpress, I was trying to avoid getting a Chinese model, and instead opt for one that would work on both my trucks, and save me the headache of having to go to a dealer each time I have a light on, as well as be able to diagnose transmission and any future truck that I get. I...

    So you wouldn't suggest a nexiq? Or would I just need that software for Cummins to troubleshoot? The good thing about cummins, is they have the quick serve site, which allows codes to be looked up as well as it tells what the code is and how to fix it, I used a scanner to pull a code, and found...

    Looking to get a scanner that works with Hino, and ford/cummins, hoping you can shed some light for me, I'm looking at a nexiq prolink iq, but not sure how the software works on it, mainly not sure if it has a yearly subscription or one time price and I'm good, I'm not going to need any updates...

    My trucks a 2011 with 163,000 miles what are the chances it's going to be covered under warranty? How do you suggest I bring it up to the dealer? I've got two near me, one that loves to charge for every single thing they do no matter what, and that isn't helpful much, while another may be able...

    Back to more problems after heavy rainfall, this time though I think I know what the exact culprit is, opened the harness box from under the hood, and there was some residue on the bottom as well as it was wet, and one of the harnesses looks like it's been exposed to water for a while.

    Was behaving for a day after cleaning the. Bam low voltage again and a check a/t message pulled over in a police parking lot, unhooked the batteries, got new ones and now not a single voltage problem. One of the batteries was bad, with the other one holding about 50% charge.

    The batteries seem pretty fine to me, I haven't hooked up a tester on them yet. But without the tester no issue till after heavy rain fall I used a actron scanner just to see why the check engine Is on, I reset it today and all that came on was the low voltage. Reset it again and voltage and...

    What exactly is this circuit breaker for? Is it in the right position? Should the black test tab be down or up the way it is?

    Brakes where recently changed, under 2 months, I'll have someone take a look at it, I was trying to keep it going for another week when my next truck drops so I can put this truck in service for an oil change and alignment, guess I'm going to have to start all that early with a little additional...

    I'm taking a wild guess but more of the gear oil smell, also some sort of noise from time to time when I brake, not sure though if it's coming from it or from the rear, the noise is usually at very slow speeds, under 10mph

    Parked the truck turned it off, and I smelled something odd, hopped out when I see smoke coming from the drivers side front wheel, not sure if brake fluid is leaking onto the rotor from a line or what's going on here. Got these pics of the inside near the rotor, what do you think is going on here?

    Yup, I see the electrical issues are starting to piss me off on it. Problem is that the bed doesn't have many lights on it, 3 side markets in each side and that's all, and 4 led work lights, I'll look at getting some cable and grounding it somewhere. Just have to find the right spot where it...
