Replacw Xantrex Inverter/Charger DC Breaker
Gliddenwoods replied to Gliddenwoods's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
John Did you replace with same brand? Or did you replace with a higher quality (if one exists) brand? -
I have been chasing (previous post) some problems charging my batteries. The saga continues. Xantrex now suggests that my DC breaker, which often breaks while charging may be the problem and should be replaced. I have done a fair amount of my own house electrical work so the process of replacing is not a concern. However my knowledge of the Oliver electrical system is less. The question, and request for advice,is other than, turning off the big red solar dial, unplugging the 120 line and manually setting off both breakers what else should I do to be safe and sure no current exists? As an aside, has anyone else replaced the 300v inverter/charger breaker? Thanks (Hopefully this solves the problem,,,)

I have purchased three different greases for my Oliver; see attached photo. My uses from left to right are... Far left; under hull zerks Center: top of front jack Far right: gears of all three jacks Is this correct? Also, if necessary can far left be used on the top of the front jack? Your thoughts are appreciated

A few (basic?) Xantrex Inverter/charger questions. I had some recent battery charging issues which are hopefully resolved and I want to check related items to make sure settings and software status were not changed by mistake during the process. 1. Where do I find the recommended settings to confirm/adjust my current settings on the Xantrex Inverter/Charger? I have the 3000 model. 2. Any advice/warning on the potential setting adjustments related to #1 above? 3. Where do I find the recommended/current Firmware versions? (Mine currently displays U1 03 19, U2 01 28 & U3 01 07). 4. Where do I find instructions on how to download/update the firmwares if required? Thanks.

Lithionics Batteries will not charge
Gliddenwoods replied to Gliddenwoods's topic in General Discussion
One more (last one?) question on this topic. All appears to be working fine now. However, after approx two days of charging the charging has stopped ( yesterday) at SOC 88 & 89% and are not charging. App shows 13.7V. Does my app and/or battery BMS require some sort of resetting? Or maybe run the battery charge down some and recharge again? Or? -

Gliddenwoods replied to Gliddenwoods's topic in General Discussion
Thanks rich.dev. While my 2022 is not exactly like your 2023 your picture helped alot. My first breaker is out in the open and easy to see. But not my second breaker; it is not by the first breaker and out-of-sight. So I thought there was only one until I saw your photo. Went back to look for the second one AND it was tripped! Thanks much! -

Where is the breaker that you had to reset? -
I have a different message related to this ongoing problem regarding my Lithionics not taking a charge when plugged into 120, You may want to review that thread to get more background information. However my battery voltage is very low and again it will not charge via 120. When reviewing the Xantrex website troubleshooting page it was noted that the Xantrex Inverter/Charger will not turn on if the battery voltage is too low. So.....maybe that is the problem. ("Battery voltage may be too low for the charger to come on.") How do I/can I charge the batteries? I have a conventional 12v battery charger; can/should I use that? Do I need a special charger? Thoughts?

It appears from the Xantrex app that charging (flow motion on app display) that charging "should" be happening. -
My two Lithionics Series 200 will not charge when the Oliver is connected to house 120 line. All other Oliver systems appear to be OK. Oliver was outside from storage building and extension charging cord became unconnected so batteries drained down to "reserve" level. Restarted both batteries and reconnected and will not recharge. Down to 10 and 6 percent. Tried restarting...nothing. Any experience with this problem? Advice? Thanks.

Broke a Leaf Spring in Maine
Gliddenwoods replied to Galway Girl's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
Are the new springs you had previously purchased the same as the original springs on your Oliver? If so, where did you buy them form? What is the spring product item name/model/part number to place an order for my backup springs? Thanks. -
Hello, I have previously viewed the video & instructions on how to grease the three stabilization jacks. However, for whatever reason I can not track the instructions and/or video at this time! Anyone available to refresh my memory of the location of this information? Thanks

Goal: to Minimize the Need to Move the Beds while Camping
Gliddenwoods replied to jd1923's topic in Ollie Modifications
Impressive! Do you hire out...? -
I recently modified my back hitch receiver to 2" to accept the 1up 2" Super Duty bike rack. The receiver modification is great and the 1up bike rack is very well built. I also purchased the 1up LED/Plate Holder to attach to the new bike rack. The LED lights include running lights and signal lights and also appear very well built. I now must determine how to make the wiring attachment from my Oliver to the LED lights. The question is whether any of the knowledgeable readers of this Forum have experience with making this wiring attachment? Of course any, and all, advice would be greatly appreciated. My second question would be if I decide (likely?) to have an expert from a service center complete the wiring who d I go to? Is this a RV service center project or is there a different (auto?) service center I should consider contacting. Thanks for your thoughts.

SeeLevel 2 only Reads 19 & 38 on Fresh Tank
Gliddenwoods replied to I M in KS's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
I have given up. The monitors never give accurate data and I have accepted that as fact. -
The fuse (see picture) for my inverter (or at least the fuse near the inverter) occasionally snaps to the off position. This has happen on no regular schedule or action/use I have been able to notice or can determine. With the fuse off the batteries no longer charge when the trailer is plugged in to shore power. After I re-set the fuse all is well and the system works and the batteries once again begin to get a charge. The question is...why does, or what can cause, this fuse to snap? Thoughts? Advice? Thanks.

Made in USA leaf springs
Gliddenwoods replied to Mountainman198's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
My Oliver storage building door has very limited height clearance for my Oliver L2. If I install new ALCAN springs will it result in raising the height of my Oliver? If so, by how much? If so, is there an alternative solution? Thanks. -
i have discovered a small pin hole in the blue water line below the floor of the outside storage compartment. (See photo) Please advise repair advice. Such as what is the pipe type and what product do I use to repair? I assume I need to cut out a pipe section and replace? If so what fittings should I use? Any repair advice would be greatly appreciated.

I have a 2022 Oliver Trailer with a Dometic Stove D21 installed. One of the burners is loose and there are no screws attaching it to the stove. I do not know if screws ever existed or if the screws fell out & down. If screws once existed there are likely in the underside pan cover space. I have not tried to take the stove apart. (Photo attached) I will check when I purchased the Oliver and the stove in 2022 when home so I am unsure whether the stove is under the 24 month warranty or not. However, if one were to attempt to repair (reinstall the two screws) is this accomplished by remove the top stove from the top of the counter OR dropping the stove "under pan" below the stove and behind the drawers. Depending on which repair option is correct any information on how to conduct the repair process. Thanks

Important Update about Oliver Service
Gliddenwoods replied to Jason Essary's topic in General Announcements
I was mislead by Oliver Inc when I was considering a purchase. I thought Oliver Inc was different than the other trailer venders; I was wrong.
