Hi Davi, Just out of curiosity, why are you repowering? How many hours on your Perkins? What problems lead you to repower decision? Should be about $2500 to re-do your Perkins if you do it yourself

Thanks Bill Reynolds, on it tomorrow. The guy who Got shocked says it felt like a DC shock, not AC. Kent Robertson S/V Kristy karkauai@... USA cell: 828-234-6819

Porter, Good point, the breaker trips immediately, so it may well be the blower. That was one of the checks Bill R. recommended. I'll have to dig into this when we get to Georgia...we're going there

Ian, The aft cabin has the least amount of space, did the Webasto unit fit there without modifications? Thanks, Duane

Does not the blower come on first before the compressor? Timing may give you a clue where to look. When it’s my compressor then it runs a few seconds until it tries to start the compressor and then

The Webasto thermostat control is a little taller than the Climma, but also a little narrower (or maybe the opposite, I’m not on the boat). So there’s a small gap between the unit and the bulkhead

Duane, I have attached a page from my Amel School Book for your information. Best, CW Bill Rouse Admiral, Texas Navy Commander Emeritus Amel School http://www.amelschool.com 720 Winnie St Galveston

Yes, that will sometime happen with the capacitor in the AC raw water pump. But, in my experience it happens with any/all AC units and normally fails and never comes back to life. Best, CW Bill

Bad ground is usually the case. Redo ALL grounds to windless motor, switches and breakers. Bill Reynolds S/ Baidarka

We bought the Webastos through Defender. Best price around, even with delivery. Ian & Margaret S/V Loca Lola II SM153 Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA

Duane, if you've exhausted all other options (and it seems you might have) and are looking at a replacement unit, we installed three 10,000BTU 50/60Hz Webasto units last year. Though it's only been 12

For what it is worth: There are many causes of a short or ground-fault causing this symptom. The ones I know about are in order of probability, followed by a possible solution: There is a wire inside

OK, here goes, and I apologize for the LOOOONG reply. PUMPS The last gray water pumps that Amel installed were Reya, but that is because Reya bought the company that made the Marina ZZ pump. It has a

I'd also check the capacitor in the A/C pump (10 Mf). I've actually had the same symptoms and even 2 units working while 1 trips the breaker.......with the cause being a slowly dying capacitor in the

Thanks Mark. Duane

Tom, Could you explain your issue on the control unit? Thanks, Duane

Hi, I replaced my TMD 22 (perkins) with the Volvo D2 75. Amel told me not to increase HP as my C drive was not built for it (SM 299) When later models were fitted with the 110 hp the C drive was up

Our AC in the V-berth died this summer. After some research, we replaced it with a Webasto (German) 10,000 BTU, 220 volts, both 50 and 60 Hertz. It seems to be working well. The heat is from the

Duane, I would suggestyou contact Ian and Margaret on Loca Lola II, they just did a ton of researchon AC to outfit their boat. Ian is the new expert. As and addedtwo cents, I would shop stores
