First off the truck: LB7, Katie's truck that was built by Wehrli. Compound turbos, etc, etc.
Posting this for a buddy because we spent 3 hours last night in the shop trying to get the truck started, truck drove into the shop fine before he pulled the Fleece allilocker, after removing it truck cranks over and sputters for maybe a second and nothing, white smoke out of the stack.
He removed the Allilocker, the blue/white wires were tapped 6" into the OEM harness, then the Fleece Tapshifter piggyback harness was plugged into that. Ground and keyed orange wire where they needed to be, actually the orange wire was tapped into the 10A ign fuse in the cab. We tried putting the allilocker back in and still wouldn't start. Red plug, pin 29, brown wire on the TCM plug is what the white and blue wires were tapped into.
Could it be something with anti-theft? Security light turns off right away when you turn the truck on. No codes, nothing.
I'm stumped, checked wires, fuses, grounds. It's not like he tore the truck apart to pull the alli locker out.
This truck HATED tow/haul mode when running and always has. The alli locker never was even turned on or used.
I pulled fuse box cover and unclipped it to look at the bottom side, found 2 wires a mouse had nibbled on the wire sheathing but wires were all intact. I don't think that's what caused this. Anyways I taped them back up.
I even got to the point where I was just shaking/jiggling the harness hoping it was something silly while he attempted to start it.
Any suggestions?
