Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
I have been working late the past few days but am close to having the wiring done.
Received my new battery today. Optima blue top. Now need to run the custom cables to the starter and alternator and an under hood distribution block.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Was able to get the 1/0 pure copper cables made up. I added a 200amp breaker under the cab next to the battery box. It reads waterproof. Not like I am going to be driving this in the rain. I still have to mount a distribution block for the under hood power, like alternator, cab power, Headlight relays, etc.
Also my upholstery guy picked up my dash pad to make a custom cover. Can’t wait to get it so I can finish the dash.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Please explain the last picture. Is that the distribution block?

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
It will be interesting to see how the breaker works. I've heard that there almost isn't one large enough to put on the main lead.

This is a tee (if you will) to the starter. The one running towards the camera will go to an actual distribution block. I hope this makes sense.

This is what happens when you plan something years earlier and forget how it was supposed to be installed. What to do.... Make new cable???? Install a very large breaker?????

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Sounds like your wiring is going to have to change. That sucks. Good luck with it and post your pictures. Keep up the good work.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Decided to get the under hood wiring routed and just think about the battery cable for now.
So had to install the radiator support and driver side wheel well. I ran the wires from the bulkhead on the firewall down towards the steering column and down under the cowl back up to the void between the internefder and the outer fender.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Started string out the small groups of wires I sorted when I modded the stock harness.
I have been using molex connectors so I can just disconnect stuff if need be.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
I started working on installing the ECM so I can finish the wiring to try and get this thing started. I need some motivation.
I used 1/8” aluminum plate to mount the under hood fuse block and ecm. I mounted the TCM relay and headlight relays behind the plate. To mount the ECM I taped the holes on the housing of all he ECM. Not sure I have seen anyone do this. It should be fine. I also recessed the fuse panel.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Nice idea. Should make for a clean install. You weren't interested in putting them under the seat or inside somewhere?

The ECM is designed to be in the elements and since I don’t plan on abusing the truck in water mud etc. I figured it would be fine. My other swap I did 7 years ago is running like a champ and it’s nothing as nice as this truck will be. It was a driver.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Started to button up the wiring to the ECM and connect to the truck under hood wiring. I will probably have to extend the wiring to the TCM so I can mount next to the ECM.
First thing was to get the passenger wiring to the passenger side so I ran the wires under the radiator. Head light, park and turn signal wires, a/c clutch, and ECM a/c wires. Next was to install the radiator hopefully for the last time. Then to connect the cab wiring.... breaker, alternator wire, and headlight relays etc. Next I will have to run my cooling fan wires to the fans. But I have a Power Probe III coming today So I can test out all the circuits before running main power to everything. (Nice to have a brother in law as a Snap-On dealer). Last photos are of the ground straps I made and installed under the passenger side cab mount. I also ran as set on the passenger side frame to radiator support and driver side cab mount. I will be installing a 4 gauge ground from frame to engine block.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Today I wanted to mount the TCM. I am thinking of mounting it under the engine cover behind the the throttle body. For now I zip tied it to the fuel rail. I will make a mount if I keep it there. If I do I won’t have about 20+ More wires running to the area of the ECM(lower front driver Fenderwell)
I decided to connect the power and use my new power probe 3RZ to test all the circuits man that thing is awesome. I have to say I am veryhappy so far not one problem. Fans, fuel pump, lights, dash etc. radio and ac fan all A ok..?? Next is to get the laptop and program the ECM.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Been working on a few little things until my dash pad got delivered after getting upholstered. Saddle color in leather with cream stitching.
Picture is with it sitting in place. Need to get different mounting screws for the 4 locations on the interior side mounting areas. Once this is installed I can run the ac ducts and get the instrument cluster installed. Then is time to paint the column, glove box door, and ash tray.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Got the dash pad installed. I didn’t want to see the screws so I found some covers. I think it looks good.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Now that the dash pad is on it was time to get the headlight switch back in and finish the dash.
The speaker is in, duct work is in so decided to put he new Dakota digital dash together. I plugged it in and turned it on bingo. Worked great. Looks good and now I need to finish the upper radiator hose and I think it’s about ready to start.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Well I tried to start the truck and it wouldn't start. Traced it to the injectors not firing. Come to find out it was the “starter fault diagnostics” under “OS” tab in the tune that needs to be “disabled”. After that she fired right up and purred like a kitten. Even though I put a cam in it. It’s started right up and idled great. I noticed the check engine light was on. Went to push on the pedal and nothing happened. Checked the code Found code p2138 pedal reference.
First picture the code. Seconds was the pigtail I bought that has all the wires white. WTH. Third and forth are how the wires are laid out in the plug I grabbed the test kit and I traced the wires all the way back to the ECM everything was good. Not sure what to check. But as I write this I am looking at the pictures of the plug with the f _ _ _ _ A I look at it closer and notice I think I wired it from the top down A-F which is backwards. So tomorrow I am going to switch it. I wish the pintail plug was color coded or at least had the letters stamped on it.

Great job on the truck, love the heavy duty wiring and the dash pad. Can't wait to see the finished project.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Thanks guys. I feel great. Now I have to get the pedal wiring corrected and I am pretty confident it will work.
Then it’s upper radiator hose or piping as I am going to do it in STainless. But it’s honeydos today. Back on it tomorrow! |

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
So a quick fix of the DBW pedal wiring. Since I built most of the truck with connectors I just repinned the molex connector since I had wired A thru F when it should have been F thru A.
Short video of it. I still see the CEL on so not sure what that is. Will check tonight. 2nd start up! Now to work on the upper radiator hose.
