    That key pad is a Ford product so you might call you location Ford dealership and see if they have every seen this problem or have solutions for you. I think Ford still has the patent on that product. I have never had a problem with it on my Excursion. I love the feature.

    Jeff

    You are such a self centered individual you must of thought I had addressed that post to you.

    Now you want to go the age and sick cards route. In case you haven’t noticed we all have to play that hand. Did you think you were exempt?

    What a shame.

    I really think that it is great when a description of a fix or repair is accompanied with a pictures and part numbers. I really appreciate it.

    Thanks !

    Dick, Would the bus alternator work to get enough of a charge in the house to get them going and then let the inverters take over? Just wondering… Jeff

    I believe that’s high for float voltage on Lifeline’s. However, my analog voltmeters do read a little high…first thing I would do is confirm with a second tester. My voltage regulator is adjustable although I believe you can buy a 3-stage voltage regulator for the 50DN which would be ideal.

    October 4, 2017 at 6:00 pm in reply to: Marinco 28220 Charger

    Thanks Dick and Tom. As far as I can tell the 24v DC lugs are wired to the equalizer and logic tells me both the 24v and 12v batteries will be charged without any inherent risks. Having said that I will watch the batteries and wiring when I turn the charger on…..and hopefully I won’t see any smoke.

    Btom,

    Are you positive you got the right steer axle weight reading? Mine has the same setup as yours, assuming your gen is in the 1st bay driver side and my max steer is 17,200. Full of water and fuel, I’m 16,901 on the steer.

    September 5, 2017 at 4:24 pm in reply to: Power pulse for batteries ?

    I would rather hear from Lifeline since they don’t have a vested interest in proving or disproving the resullts. I tend to think the companies that make the battery know what is best and I have never seen any battery manufacturer suggest or recommend the use of the device.

    I fully agree with Tom in that proper use of inverters to maintain our batteries is the best thing we can do for them.

    August 31, 2017 at 9:52 am in reply to: Transmission key pad blinks “Do Not Shift”

    Rebooting the transmission and engine ECUs might be worthwhile. For that you’ll need to turn off battery switches and remove the negative battery cable from the engine batteries. (Not sure if the ECU uses 12v or 24V, thus the negative cable.)

    If this does not help I’d would look for oil contamination on the transmission ECU and sender connector(s). Clean and put dielectric grease on connections.
