    so some may have noticed i havent been around too much, well ive been working my ass off lately at my new job as a tire tech, and well been having problems with my truck that are all now fixed, first i had to replace the blower motor resistor and pig tail harness and the fuse, me and my dad did that last weekend, and today we swapped out my alternator with a high power because it was only working at 11 amps so it was about to **** the bed, and now i have a 150amp one, and also today we fixed my reverse light and airbag problem which both seemed to be a together problem with a quick cleaning of a connection and fuse replace, so now my truck is running great again

    So let see the resistor pack got replaced and you had more problems with the heater not working, what did you do to that ?

    Funny, I have heard of the engine not running right with low power but not the heater…
    I need to look into this.

    Glad it got done.
