Sounds like a solid plan! As I've been working on my machine I've been pulling every electrical plug possible and giving them ye ole dielectric grease treatment. Electronics can be great, but can also create a lot of problems...Went back out to shop with manual in hand. Gonna count the flashes and see what's up. No pgm light and selector indicator showing P like it should. Hit the starter and it fires right off. Runs perfectly. Still got little smoke from the rear diff area. No burnt short smell though. I'm thinking I got a loose plug somewhere and got too much water in it. The smoke I'm still seeing is vapor/steam. Hard to say where it's coming from. O2 sensor maybe? It could be coming from almost anywhere.
So here's the plan. Disconnected neg cable and gonna let it sit overnight to dry out. I'll start it tomorrow and look for vapor/smoke. If I don't see any I'll break out the dielectric grease and go over every connector i can get my hands on.
I'm glad it's going but still a little concerning.Went back out to shop with manual in hand. Gonna count the flashes and see what's up. No pgm light and selector indicator showing P like it should.

I agree. Not very definitive. I'll be going over it with a fine toothed comb tomorrow.I'm glad it's going but still a little concerning.
Let the donut wars begin!! (Sorry no cops allowed).
Hope it's just a fluke... I hate electrical problems.. usually a PITAI agree. Not very definitive. I'll be going over it with a fine toothed comb tomorrow.
Had me laughing!! Was it electrical smoke you were smelling or horse crap cooking on your muffler??Let the donut wars begin!! (Sorry no cops allowed).
Haha!! She had plenty of nature's odor while washing it off believe me lol. Luckily I like that smell. Half hour of fun, almost 2 hours of cleaning. Sounds about right eh?Had me laughing!! Was it electrical smoke you were smelling or horse crap cooking on your muffler??
I should find out tomorrow hopefully. I'm gonna get it out and run the crap out of it. Go or blow!Hope it's just a fluke... I hate electrical problems.. usually a PITA
Bhahahahah!!! Love the opening line!!Let the donut wars begin!! (Sorry no cops allowed).

Yeah me too. But no telling what was on that hot motor right before it started smoking. Wish I could've counted the flashing so I could look it up.I'm not sure if it's safe to do the pioneer but on trucks that I wanted to disconnect power and hopefully try to reset a computer, I would take both battery cables off the battery and touch them together which would instantly drain any residual power in the system versus leaving it overnight.
The smell thing has me worried. That's what don't make sense.
