    Help extending the range of my Dakota Alert System

    No idea on the grounding, but make sure to either seal up the hole for the cable, or put a drip loop in it.

    Electrical Mystery

    Those explanations make complete sense. Thanks. I guess I never saw it except for testing continuity. And grs, I'm thinking open loop, hence no continuity...

    Help extending the range of my Dakota Alert System

    You wouldn't even have to raise the transmitter, just the antenna so it can get over the "earth" that's blocking the signal. You could keep the battery case lower and accessable, while running an extension cable and antenna up higher. So that could be a better option so you don't have some weird...

    Electrical Mystery

    I know this is late to the conversation, but I was under the impression that OL was open load. Not overload. Which tells me there is a break in the wire? But maybe this only applies to continuity?

    Help extending the range of my Dakota Alert System

    I have the same system, no issues. But if I were you, I'd probably try replacing the antenna on the receiver. Because you say you are getting alerts, the signal does make it, just not consistent. But that's just thinking out loud...

    Curious if you looked into the issue more, or found the solution? Thanks

    Pickup HVAC Problem

    You might try checking the fuses as stated earlier. Maybe even disconnecting the battery to see if it resets and starts working even for a little bit.

    Pickup HVAC Problem

    It depends which one is not working...I think the defrost/face/floor might be under the dash on the older models. I'm not sure about your year. They usually go out slowly instead of like a switch though.. I'm surprised.

    Sounds like an actuator might have went bad. I've replaced a few on my older GM trucks.

    Harbor Freight Tools that don't suck

    Doing what he said worked... Would you look at that. I thought he meant he could see 2 days away for the sales though.

    Can a mini do the ground work to build home - slab or piers?

    Rocks, yeah I grow those things here too. Was your machine able to move those larger rocks, or did you have to use something else? Been tossing the idea of a mini for here and no idea where to start size wise. Thanks

    Try the new tractor database

    I click on link..."not enough permission to access this feature". I'm using the app on Android if that matters. Sounds like a promising feature though!
