-When I started up the engine for this part of the maintenance task I heard a loud squeeling. As I looked to see what was making the noise I noticed that one of the Pulleys wasn't turning and that was causing the sound of the Belt that was "skipping" over the pulley that didn't want to turn. I have provided a picture of the Part that doesn't wish to turn now. (no maintenance was involved using this part. | 0.00 |

| 08/29/05 | Maintenance | 157347 | Transport
-Bought a Tow Strap from Harbor Freight to move vehicle from the Lemon Lot on NAS over to the residence of Kurtis Chapman (mechanic) to begin trouble shooting. While making the a turn the strap took slack and I ended up running over the strap with the front left tire of the Bronco. Tires began to spin and as we heard a tire squeeling we stop both the Bronco and the Tow vehicle. After reviewing the damage we found out that the tow strap was torn and freighed about 1/4 of the way through the tow strap. We manually pushed the Bronco back off the tow strap, then cleared the tow strap and tightened up the slack. The tow rope held up as we continued with the tow all the way to the garage area. | 15.00 |

-Kurtis began disassembling the steering column in attempt to find out the possible wire that was pulled accidently.
-He found a "Viper 2" box that had several wires that were cut from the box which would explain why the ignition wouldn't engage when you turn the key.
-The "Viper 2" box was removed and troubleshooting continued on finding the correct wire.
-Kurtis used a screwdriver to attempt to start the Bronco by touch some area up near the battery. The engine began to turn over slightly but never started up. | 0.00 |
| 08/28/05 | Maintenance | 157347 | Troubleshooting (battery)
