Thanks,
Tim

Try this ... mine did it .... pull the end caps out ... blow out the wholes, spray in some type of electrical connection spray, then stretch the springs a bit and turn the brushes 180* I did that 20K a go when the truck went down 50 miles from home on a Saturday afternoon knock on wood

its still going strong.

Had to pull brushes three times yesterday. This morning I pulled the cap, and when pulling out the brush, the wire broke.

I dont have a FASS, But cant you just get some replacement bruches? I know ACE harware sells a big assortement of brushes. Find one thats the same size. Or find one thats bigger and file it down. It should buy you some time.

Aaron, I may need a ride Tuesday afternoon if you are free. Gonna try to get pump motor overnighted to Noble's for Tue. I drove it up there from work with no fp. Hopefully I didn't damage the ip, it was only a couple of miles.

ETH/DEE · 01-13-2008, 09:34 AM

I'll be around, just let me know. Is this a common occurance with the older FASS. Any kind of warranty?

JFlagg · 01-13-2008, 02:35 PM

There is an update for some of the older FAS systems, not sure of the specifics, there is a thread here somewhere about it. I just had mine replaced for free. Try Diesel-Dan, he got me mine the next day....
