Isotherm Refrigerator - What are we doing wrong?
Mike and Jill replied to DunnYet's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
@DunnYet We also have the isotherm fridge in our 2023 LE 2, and have had problems with interior temps running warmer than we like for food safety (upper 40s). What I found out is that we have to defrost our fridge every week to two week. After defrosting our temps will even out within the fridge compartment , Then as it starts to build frost on the freezer coil our temps will remain cooler on the upper shelf (38) and but start to rise to almost 10 degrees warmer in the food tray at the bottom (45-47). This is with the thermostat set on 4 to 5, the plastic tray below the freezer removed, and we do not currently have an interior fan within the fridge. So, hopefully this help a little. -
Wet Bolt Size Help Requested
Mike and Jill replied to connor77's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
@connor77 we recently replaced our leaf springs with ALCAN's 5 leaf pack and had a couple of the wet bolts that were spinning (operator error on my part) so we ordered a couple wet bolt kit from e trailer and replaced them all. The kit is made by MORryde instead of Dexter but was an exact fit. The kit contained the 6 smaller bolts for the hangers welded to the trailer frame (leaving you 2 spares) and 8 larger bolts that already pressed into the shackles for both sides that fit into the ez flex equalizer. Below is the website link for the part we ordered, listed in it is the bolt sizes you were looking for. Hope this helps. Make sure to confirm these bolt sizes with your mechanic before ordering. https://www.etrailer.com/Trailer-Leaf-Spring-Suspension/MORryde/MR46ZR.html Features: Leaf spring mounting hardware upgrades your leaf spring suspension system Thick shackle straps, wet bolts, and bronze bushings are long-lasting and minimize intensive trailer maintenance Heavy-duty shackle straps replace your factory shackle straps 1/2" Thick shackles are more durable and twice as thick as most stock shackles Wet bolts with built-in grease fittings are long-lasting and ease maintenance Bronze bushings are more durable and last longer than the plastic bushings found on most factory suspensions Work with wet bolts to ensure a well-lubricated setup Quick, simple installation Shackle straps replace your trailer's factory straps Included bolts, nuts, and bushings replace your existing suspension hardware Includes: 8 Shackle straps 8 Wet bolts (for attaching the springs to your equalizers) 6 Wet bolts (for suspending your equalizers and springs from the hangers) 14 Bronze bushings (for spring eyes and equalizer bolt holes) 14 Locknuts Made in the USA Specs: Application: tandem-axle trailers with double-eye leaf springs Shackle strap length (from center of hole to center of hole): 2-1/4" Bolt hole diameter: 9/16" Wet bolt dimensions: 9/16" Diameter x 3-3/8" usable length 9/16" Diameter x 2-7/8" usable length Bushing dimensions: Outer diameter: 11/16" Inner diameter: 9/16" Length: 1-3/4" 1-Year limited warranty -
A suggestion to Truma about the Aventa A/C....
Mike and Jill replied to Mike and Jill's topic in General Discussion
Thanks, @Patriot. The noise isn't a deal breaker, but it would be nice if the fan cycled. -
I recently sent a suggestion email to service@trumacorp.com concerning the Aventa A/C system. While I'm pleased with system, I do not like the fact that the fan runs continuously if the A/C is turned on. I would like to it run like a household system where you can put the fan in the "auto" setting where it only comes on if the compressor is working, or the "on" position where the fan runs continuously. My hopes are this, if enough other Oliver owners feel the same way and let Truma know, then maybe they can come up with some kind of firmware update for their system. This is definitely not a critical issue, but if others feel the same then truma might have some more motivation. I included what I sent to them and their response. Hi, I recently bought an Oliver RV. I ordered it with the Truma Aquago comfort, Varioheat furnace, and Aventa air conditioning system. So, needless to say I trust the Truma product line. All three components have performed well. I do, as a consumer, have a request or an idea for not only myself but many other friends I have here in your North America district would like to share with you. Unanimously, everyone I have spoke with that has the Aventa air conditioning system would like some type of firmware update that would allow the option to have the blower or fan to cycle off and on as the compressor is needed. Having the fan noise continuously run can be somewhat disruptive during the night while sleeping and also mask the sounds of nature that we enjoy while camping. Again, I love the Aventa A/C system but would like the option for the fan to be like a household system were you can put the fan on AUTO or ON. I encourage any feedback from you on this and look forward to what can be done. Thanks, Mike Their response: Hi Mike. Thank you for your suggests. They are good ones. I have forwarded this on to our product development team. Best Regards, Melissa Ettline Customer Care Associate

I too, cannot figure that out. Turning it down to lowest setting and it will still run (when I need to defrost it). The only way I know to totally turn it off is to pull the 12v fuse. I been thinking about installing a switch to make it easier.

We called a couple weeks ago, and was able to move to F58. Looking forward to seeing everyone.

2024 Florida Eggs 'n S'mores Rally
Mike and Jill replied to Steve Morris's topic in Events & Rallies
@Steve Morris Yes, Triolgy is about 10 mins from Jill and me. I haven't eaten there but have seen it driving down New York ave. It sounds like Blue Springs was packed with manatees with kind of numbers. Currently we're down in the Keys at Curry Hammock SP enjoying some fun in the sun. Take care and safe travels -
Truma Varioheat furnance not working with error code
Mike and Jill replied to Mike and Jill's topic in General Discussion
Yes, I talked with the Truma center in Lakeland Florida yesterday and they stated that code is "fan speed too slow". In conversation, the tech stated that more than likely I had a mechincal fan failure and the unit would need to be replaced. Being that their repair center is only 2 hours from us, we are scheduled in Feb to have looked at or replaced. So a little bit of a wait but very happy to have Truma actually doing the work. -
Truma Varioheat furnance not working with error code
Mike and Jill replied to Mike and Jill's topic in General Discussion
Thanks ScubaRx and Dud B. Dud B, I did try the reset in video you replied with and the same condition or code returned. ScubaRx, thanks for ideas and yes we do need to bring a secondary heat source in the future. Tomorrow we're pulling stakes and heading home from this little shake down run with our Ollie. I did see the 513 code and thought the same as you, but it I tripled checked it and it does say E 13 H. Thanks to both of you all. Tomorrow when everything opens back up I'm sure between Oliver and Truma we'll be able to get this figured out. -
We're currently out camping with our 2 month old Legacy II, when our Truma varioheat furnance went out and started putting out codes. When I set a temp calling for the furnance to come on, a small audible click can be heard about 10 seconds after setting the temp and then error code "E 13 H" will show on the cp plus display. I've searched the everywhere I can think of on the internet including the truma site for a explaination for this code, but haven't been to find this particular code listed in any of the troubleshooting guides including the manual for the furnance on Truma's website. Tomorrow (after the new year holiday) I'll give Oliver a call, but today being the holiday everyone is closed. I have tried to reset the code on the display, however, it keeps returning (the error code) on each new attempt to start the furnance. I also pulled the 10A fuse for the furnance to get it reset as well, but this didnt fix it either. The return for the system is also clear of any obstructions. It's not the end of the end of the world but its getting down to the 40's tonight so some heat would be nice if anyone has a thoughts or has dealt with this code before Thanks
