    This is a good point but I am doubtful that this is the cause. Unless his CSC button is wired different then mine there's three wires. A negative that sends signal to the starter, a negative for a light, and a positive that is always on. If his fans were biting into the switch theoretically they would still be on even after he shuts off the truck. Granted this is only if they were wired up properly. Like I said though, some people are total idiots when it comes to wiring :notsure:

    Agreed, I'm hopeful it's a battery draw issue and turning the fan off on start-up will do the trick. I don't really need CSC and the truck runs fine regardless, it just bugs me it doesn't work lol. I'll report back.

    Back to trail meet-up talk.....I'm ready to call in sick tomorrow if anyone else wants to go to Rowher a few days early? :D

    It just occurred to me that even if my electrical ideas are technically correct I could still be wrong :eek:

    Toyota has been know to have some very strange wiring over the years. I remember when I first got my stereo wired up I had this issue where every time I'd close my door my radio fuse would blow. Everyone told me to check the wiring harness going into the door, but for the life of me I could not figure out why a stereo wire would be traveling into my door. Lo and behold I take apart my door panel and the fuse stops blowing. After plugging and unplugging switches in my door I figured out it was connected to my mirror controller. Of all the things to be affecting my radio why the fuck was it my mirrors?! :confused: To this day I still don't understand it :facepalm:

    I wish. Tomorrow is my last day of freedom before I start working again :pout:

    However if you wanted to do some stuff up in Big Bear tomorrow I'd be happy to jump in the truck with you and go mob around :D

    lol, ah I wish...gotta make the $$$ for the mods (and rent). But definitely soon. Big Bear from what I remember was a lot of fun. Definitely on my to-do list for upcoming trail runs, especially with the summer heat at our heels out here.

    Yeah very true. My hope is that I get my runner fixed at the perfect time to have a Big Bear meet for its first trip back on the dirt. If everything goes well it'll be a HUGE meet :fingerscrossed:

    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    So I got the first half of the pic dump off the Sony cam. Some of these are fantastic. Will post soon!!

    Probably after work today. I may hit a few up in Photoshop to pretty them up? I think I'll upload them all to a Photobucket maybe and post here then post a link to a public album? I definitely want the high resolution pictures to be available...

    If you're able to link to the hi-res versions, I can put a little pizazz on them in PS too if you want (if your friend doesn't mind)

    He's not a photographer he just brought that so he wasn't dead weight! I can see about making the unedited and my versions available. The folder is quite large though so uploads may take a bit!
