LCM Repairs

[fastblackmerc]

I have acquired 2 LCM that have been repaired with a heavy duty external relay. I also replace the three internal relays with upgrades units.

For those of you that use your MM as a daily driver and can not be without the use of your MM I'll offer you this:

I'll send you one of the repaired LCM's after I receive $285.00. When I receive your LCM back I'll refund $200.00. The $200.00 is a core charge. That is what it would cost to get another LCM at a recycle yard, if I could find one.

Nice offer!

For those of you that use your MM as a daily driver and can not be without the use of your MM I'll offer you this:

I'll send you one of the repaired LCM's after I receive $150.00. When I receive your LCM back I'll refund $100.00. The $100.00 is a core charge. That is what it would cost to get another LCM at a recycle yard, if I could find one.

I'll be doing this next Friday, thanks again

Mr. Negron,
I got your LCM. Didn't receive any instructions or payment. Let me know what you want me to do.

Thanks!

What is your usual turn around time when repairing one sent in?

I repair it and get it back to the USPS the same day I receive it.

I ship via Priority Mail (2-3 day delivery).

:lol: True, that!

Just remember....

It's not if lights go out

Its when will they go out

I guarantee your headlights will go out when you need them the most unless you have a repaired LCM.

Next on my list of upgrades after my other demons...:D

I think the relay failure directly correlates to the length of time the headlights are on.

The longer they are on the shorter the life of the relay.

If you only drive during the day the LCM may never fail.

Fastblackmerc Rocks! Thanks for all your help and advice on this site!

Interesting points. I typically have my light switch set on "Auto", I wonder if that may be a factor as well?

(BTW, I'm referring to the failure of the original and OEM replacement relays, not the HD upgrade FBM installed).

Like I said, the longer you have the headlights on the quicker the relay will fail.

Your exceptional service allowed me to keep my DD running and safe. I had sweated out night driving for almost a month--- sure is nice to have running lights again. The tech who installed it remarked that he had no problem popping it right in. For those who haven't had the failure, when it occurs, don't hesitate to contact Jim. Saves lots of headaches. Again, thanks Jim. Maury

Send it to me and I'll repair it.

[fastblackmerc]

I have 4 LCM's in stock that have had the headlight relay replaced with an external heavy duty relay and the three other relays inside replaced with 15A units.

[fastblackmerc]

I have a few LCM's that are repaired..... new external heavy duty relay and new higher rated relays (3) inside. Ready for immediate shipment for you to swap out.

[Bruce Wayne]

isn't there a recall on these?

[fastblackmerc]

isn't there a recall on these?

Yes there is.

Last I heard there is a back order for the LCMs. I'm still waiting on mine. I have one of my upgraded LCMs installed, but I wanted to get a new one to see if there has been any upgrades.

Members have reported various problems after the LCM was "replaced". Some have even gotten the "Dorman" fix from the Ford dealer, which hasn't worked out very well either.

[rauder88]

I have been waiting for mine since April 2014, they did the "Dorman fix" in October.

[fastblackmerc]

Just realized I never posted pictures of the LCM's that I repair. In addition to the external heavy duty headlight relay the other three relays (internally) are upgraded from 10amp to 15amp units.

At least it doesn't look like a second grader did the work... :eek:
