If you are the original owner, then I think you should make a warranty claim with the Oliver Service Department. If you are the 2nd owner or just like to fix stuff, PM me and we can discuss how I would fix this issue. If there is glue residue on the end of the pipe, it would indicate that it was glued and connected but the pipe was not inserted far enough into the valve body which probably led to the failure.

Lubricating Dump Valves and Cables
mossemi replied to mossemi's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
Update! Wayfinder and connor77 have volunteered to have everyone in their Ollie's for the dump valve discussion! đź Just kidding! đ We will try to do most of the discussion in a common place and then do a practical demonstration in and around the volunteer's Ollie's. Mossey -

There was a product called LowPro LockDown that was built for the Honda EU2000i, but it is no longer available. This one is similar. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1253698861/generator-lock-security-low-profile Mossey

Victron Energy BMV-712 Smart Battery Monitor
mossemi replied to dewdev's topic in General Discussion
Right on Charlie! These 2 links will probably answer your questions. And your phone does not a SIM card for Bluetooth to work. I used an old cell phone with my BMV-712 Smart for a year or so. I never really used the included display, as it was mounted below the rear dinette seat. The Smart Shunt was not available at the time I purchased mine, but that is what I would buy if I did not need or want the display. Donât hesitate to ask if you have additional questions.

Wishing to learn wisdom and experience from experienced folks
mossemi replied to Nightfog's topic in Introduce Yourself
Only you can answer that question! Are you a friend of Bill's? Mossey -
Revisiting my post above, I donât think you can complete this repair without drilling out the rivets. The nut and washer have to be trapped in the chrome base which is still attached to the bottom of the cabinet. The hole in the cabinet that the wiring passes through is not large enough for you to work through to line up the washer and nut. And of course there is no way to get a wrench on the nut to secure it either. And I will add that the lights I installed are screw mounted, not riveted. The lights Oliver installed are riveted. Sorry if I miss directed you with my first post! Mossey

I should have been more explicit in my comments about the removal of the propane box cover! I generally only remove the cover for tank refills. And like you, I do open and close the tank valves via the porthole access. Mossey

Not sure if itâs a need but itâs there and I use it because it facilitates the removal and replacement of the cover for the propane housing. I remove the porthole cover and stick my left arm through the hole and pickup up the cover, using the my right hand for stability. Mossey

You can also buy adapters that reverse the polarity. Here is one example: Sunway Solar SAE Polarity Reverse Adapter Connectors For SAE To SAE Quick Disconnect Extension Cable, Solar Panel Battery Power Charger And Maintainer-3Pack https://a.co/d/biyVWnv Mossey

I switched to the 1/4 turn porthole and lid a year or so back due to the discoloration of the original. I also moved the tether from the old cover to the new one. I still lube the threads, thereâs just less to lube! My tether was in the parts bag of some shop lights I installed in the past. Mossey

This is the OEM light hull 193 was equipped with. My best guess is that the nut and washer is loose and will be impossible to get back on the hollow bolt. You can remove the rubber mat in the cabinet and locate the top of the fixture, it will be under the black tape corresponding with the fixture location. If you attempt this method I think it would be beneficial to pre twist the wires in the opposite direction so that they straighten out when you thread the stem back in. Mossey

Replacing Xantrex Freedom XC Pro 3000W Inverter
mossemi replied to Sak's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
My inverter is still attached in it original position. That being said and I was going to re-attach the mounting board or just being proactive trying to prevent the mounting board from breaking loose, I think replacing the just top 2 screws holding the inverter to the mounting board with the through bolts of your choice, would prevent the inverter and board from falling. But the other choice is to hide the bolt heads. This is where Krunch keeps 4 or 5 pairs of sandals, slippers or đ©Žâs under her port bed overhang. Iâm sure no one would be able to see the bolt heads unless they wanted to borrow a pair of her shoes. We wonât even discuss where the other 15 pairs of her shoes go! Mossey -
Fishing from Upper Cabinets to Inverter?
mossemi replied to Ty J's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
Where do you intend to locate the Cerbo GX? Are going to use a GX Touch 50 or 70 display and if so, where are you going to place it? I am using a 15â HDMI to get from the display down to the Cerbo GX through the rear port corner as ScubaRX mentioned above. Mossey -
And I remember you telling me that you would rather be âlucky than goodâ! But I think we were talking about fishing! Mossey

I have heard that Oliver did a lot of different things in the âoldân daysâ, but of course I wasnât around then! Mossey

I also end up buying more than I need on Amazon, especially the small stuff. I need to start posting my extras on eBay. Mossey -
The first thing that I would do is to get my ladder out and take a picture of the information sticker on the roof top panels and your portable panel. Then you can check an online charge controller calculator and determine if the 100/50 will do the job. I do believe Victron SCâs have the ability to throttle down the in coming power to protect itself. And Craigâs advise is the current voice of experience as he is using similar equipment to yours.
