If you want hot water from an electric heater, one possible way is to wire a double pole switch to supply 120 to your heater or 240 as needed. This will heat the water to the same temp but just slower (times 4). the amps are reduced to just 25% of 240 volt service. you should use a Electrician...

if a 4x4 it is a maybe, it must have a 2 speed transfer case. On my 2021 Tahoe 5.3L, I start motor put transmission in N push 2 up arrow 5 times in less than 10 sec. 2 wheel light will flash until steady N lights up. then try R and D if no movement put into P and turn motor off leave in...

Wife and I got 1st shot Jan 14,  just got e-mail to setup 2nd dose 3 weeks from the first. We are in a small population county Huron, Michigan. Heath dept was well organized. They had 50 to 60 staff. ran 20 chairs with appointments never had more than 12 in line spaced out by cones. knocked out...

I think that is a testing port. Looks like a two stage regulator. I wouldn't think you could use it for what you need. TJ

    Like John from D  I replaced my element with a 240 volt unit but i used a 240 by 4000 watt that will give me fast service when plugged in with a 50 amp service and 1000 watts when on 30 amp plug or when on generator.  I used a 3 way switch to feed either 120 or 240 to the heater. The power...

Try turning off any fluorescent lights. the ballast can fail and increase voltage even higher than 145 volts. The closer to the light you take the reading the higher the voltage.  Your start cap may have added in parallel to the run cap,  with a small motor starter relay,  in between the two...

I had a problem with smells, over a two year time span. I removed a panel from the outside over my propane tank passenger side  and found the black tank which has a tapered bottom. it drains to the drivers side and had shims that had moved.  that left a gap in the piping to the top of the tank...

PJ    Hit the bulls eye.  long run times kills them.  I spray every time I retract. If one cylinder stops moving usually the last 1/2" as that is when spring is applying the least amount of up pressure, I will help it with a lever (shovel and wood block).  most times wd40 is all the help it...

I had the same type of choices.  I picked  the Aims 1000 12-120 ss this unit has transfer and battery charger.  I located unit close to batteries and ran one cable 14-4-w ground from inverter to breaker panel this supplies power to aims unit for both charging batts and running fridge. Black wire...

It will be labeled But most likely R-22. The OEM units had no charging ports so will need to be installed Are you sure you need to recharge? If cooling works but not heatpump may just need a reversing solenoid coil. Good luck TJ

You may have more then one problem. Just as a starter question, are you able to light the stove up. After reading your post again I see the pilot lights then dies after 3 seconds. Make  sure you have LP gas supply. if no gas at stove let us know.... TJ 

It sounds like a thermocouple problem. you need to have 1/2" to 3/4" flame contact with the probe/ sensor. If you have good contact from the flame it will produce .03 volts where thermocouple screws into gas valve. Now this may need 3 hands but unscrew thermocouple from gas valve. hold pilot...

I was doing my once a month generator exercise. I started my 5.5 gas unit and was walking around rear of coach, when I saw gas dripping on the ground under the generator. Opening the door and removing gen set cover, I find unit covered with gas it is coming from the fuel filter on the...

I have a 2005 Winnebago 35A that is un-drive able at 90+ cold psi, after much talking with a Michelin Engineer he said try 85 psi. That handled the problem I put 40,000 miles on them after that never showed any sign of wear changed them only due to age. stay safe TJ

I have a Winnebago 05 35a motor home. my shower is  on the pass side. After a few years found small  leak under shower /gray tank when shower or lav was used.  I also noticed that when gray tank was full, leak got a lot worse. I opened up the side below floor and above basement level at gray...
