Bill, Do you recall the mans first name? Was he from Holland? Sending a package to and from Colombia can cost over $200- A customs broker is also needed. If someone ships a board to me I will l

Bill, my fw pump isn’t self priming. It’s easy to prime, but needs help if the lines go empty. ~~~⛵️~~~Matt

Yes, but if the pump is running, there is no need to move the over-ride switch on the side of the Square D pressure switch.

The switch on the side of the Square D pressure switch is to turn ON the pump motor when circumstances prohibit the motor from turning on. I do not see who this will help in priming. The OEM pump on

There is a relay that uses the start engine 12v circuit to close the other side of the relay which is supplied with 24 volts. That is how the "excite circuit" works for the 24-volt alternator on all

Lieber Elja, Vielen Dank für Nachricht, das macht mich um einiges schlauer. Große Hilfe! Ich habe noch eine andere Euros Ankerwinsch Konstruktion geschickt bekommen und bei denen fällt die Kette in

We turned off the fresh water pump from the DC panel and let a tap run which lowered the water pressure to 0 before doing some plumbing work today. I expected that when I turned back on the fresh

Dear Amelians, thanks to Ken (SV Aquarius) and Oliver (SV Nautica) and others we know there are good (stand alone or B&G) solutions for a forward looking sonar. But do you know a possibility/

Oliver, that has not been my experience. Perhaps Victron makes bad internal cell-cell connections but I surmise it might have to do with my keeping the Amel configuration of 12v batteries paired up in

I spoke with my friend in Bogota and he would like to look at a defective board and give an estimate for its repair. Does anyone have a board that they would like me to send to him in Bogota for an

I forgot to mention that I used a Dremel tool with a cutting blade to remove a few thousands of an inch from the key that is on the shaft. I removed metal from the sides and the top. Eric

Try looking for a compound in a metal can called https://www.amazon.com/Never-Seez-NSBT-8-Regular-Anti-Seize-Compound/dp/B000KZCU26 I put it on the drive shaft of the outhaul twice a year. It

I have a friend in Bogota that repairs expensive circuit boards. Mostly for mining and the oil business. I asked him how he gets the schematics. He replied with the cheap labor in Colombia ($1.00 an

Just a related comment...seems these boards fail alot....my MDKAV has this expensive board as well. There has been at least one posting claiming that heat "melts" these boards. When I run the

Well done Bill. Hadn’t thought of the real simple job of removing just the shaft. It’s on the schedule now. Thank you! Feel a bit like Homer! Doooh!!
