    Started whining after 700-800 miles. Hell I barely have 4-5K on them now. Haha

    Can you test the power with a voltmeter or test light maybe?

    Yup another thing to try attach a cable to the frame as well than to the bpv

    Possibly the grounds are at different potentials

    Check your output voltage isnt too low/high

    So here is an update to Marks locker install... I Built him a wiring harness with the relay, Wired it all correctly as per the wiring diagrams that he gave me. and aginst my advise( yet again)...love ya buddy but some times you dont listen..... he added tape to each individual spayed connector at the relay and did not put the wires back in the correct spot. the locker worked but did not release all the way due to the incorrect wiring at the relay. Oh yeah, the switch on his dash was working backwards too, which was corrected with the re wiring of the relay.

    I tested the locker in my very short gravel drive way and now it works.... soo it is now oficially DONE!!!!

    Thanks Konsta for all the hard work on saturday..I have not done a gear set in about ten years. and from what I hear, youre quite the bad ass with the ladies.. Good on ya!..oh yeah... and stay away from the red heads!!!! there fucking nuts! HAAA HAAAA!!!

    It's going to show A they are installed correctly and B they were already broke in gears so it should only take a short drive to prove that they will be fine.

    I was thinking that voltage drop testing would be a really good idea not only on the ground side but the power side too. something is just weird about it seeing how as it didnt work in the air at my shop but did in boise.

    Not really. That one spot yes on Christina. But I didn't take that line only Jon did. Honestly there is nothing on lander where a locker is needed. Not one place. None of the trails we will do will need lockers.

    Mike is on 33s now. Haha he will have more clearance. Especially when we are all air down.

    I'm sure you'll be fine..I hope..I really don't think it's that bad if you just pay attention. Which gets hard cause it just so unrelentless. At least this is the back side of Shoshone. That's the only part I'm worried about for you and other. Everything else is simple. Just fun to drive.

    Now hang the fuck on here. I took every pin out of the relay one at a time and taped them. And put them back on. I don't see how they got mixed up if there never was more than one wire disconnected at once. Herp derp wiring issue, but I put it back together how we had it the first time. Regardless, Andy I love you haha!

    Got back to Boise at 3:30 last night, surprised I didn't fucking crash I was so tired. I wa suppose to go test it at like 8 30 but I was so tired I slept through my alarm and got to Andy's like 40 minutes before I had to work at 11. Was gonna drive my locked truck I work but Andy said dont blow it up ill look at it. So thus the wiring issue was discovered.
