echanics, seems like just about any place a Soldier puts his big feet can cause you
problems. The latest spot is inside the troop compartment of the Stryker.
The W4 cable that screws into the side of the battery box sits right under the squad
leader’s seat. It would be really easy for a Soldier’s heel to hit the W4 cable and
either damage it or slowly unscrew it.
A damaged or loosened cable won’t allow the vehicle’s batteries to charge. You
can spend a lot of time and lose a lot of sleep trying to troubleshoot this problem. So
make it one of your Frst checks.
C
rewmen, there’s a bad engine oil Flter out there. And it’s up to you to run him out
of town before he guns down your M1-series tank!
The bad Flter was manufactured by ±leetguard and testing has shown that the
epoxy compounds used in the Flter may break down. That can lead to catastrophic
engine failure!
Right now, take a look at the engine oil Flter on your
tank. If it’s clearly labeled ±leetguard with black letters
and includes the part number H±28202 in red letters, get it
replaced as soon as you can. If you don’t have a replacement
Flter on hand, order a new engine oil Flter parts kit, NSN
If the kit or your tank has any Flter other than what’s on
this list, replace it.
If you have to change the Flter, changing the engine oil isn’t necessary. You also
won’t need to submit a special AOAP sample.
However, you should hang on to the bad Flter as an exhibit and submit a PQDR.
You’ll receive instructions on where to send the Flter.
