Hi group, Was going up the road to another weekend rally, had to stop for gasoline, turned into the station, pulled to the pump, then heard a B O O M !!!!....
Of course it would happen in a gas station right next to the pump. So, an '88 is just to the age when it needs that sort of work and systems start shorting...
Hi group, First investigation reveals that wires got together in the battery box and caused the short. That makes the problem (owner created). Looks like...
It's a good lesson Kevin. It sounds like you did everything right. The only thing to do now is learn from the experience and correct the deficient wiring...
Kevin, I had a wonderful old '65 Dodge truck. One day I turned the key and smoke started pouring out under the hood and dash. I grabbed a wrench, opened the...
Chuck Cayo is stumped. He did not look at the trailer and I have an appointment in July. ... would be ... location it would be ... http://www.aol.com....
I would like to put led lights behind the lenses. Seems like no one can see the current ones :> Has anyone tried this? Ned Joldersma 1985 30P 1978 GMC Motor...
Looking for a Avion trailer up to 23 foot in total length that is in good condition and is not restored. Minor repairs needed OK. Must be road worthy. Models...
When I installed the Golf Cart batteries in our Avion, I also installed a heavy-duty fuse holder with a 40-amp fuse as the series jumper between the batteries....
Ned, there are probably LED packages that you can install. You could check with JC WHITNEY. But I'm thiking that they wouldn't be brighter or easier to see. If...
Ned, I copied the following information from Dr.G's web site. LED Lights for Your Avion - I've been tossing the idea around since I was in Fairbanks, AK in...
Bill, after I replied to Ned, I checked for replacements also and am still in price shock. But your relay idea is best. Those ARE long wire runs! On top of...
I believeone one name for it is a disaster fuse. Everyone should have one. Anything can happen. T. Smith 67' T-21 Jim Dunmyer <jdunmyer@...> wrote: ...

Jim, adequate voltage at the brake and turn signals bulb sockets was not a problem. After cleaning all the connections I could get my hands on in the running...
Bill, I know of folks who have added 3 relays to their trailer to operate the lights. What I did is install a "Hoppy" lighting isolator in the truck. It is a ...
Bill, The Hoppy device has a seperate power lead that's attached to the truck battery through a fuse. Note: Hoppy makes several similar devices, some of which...
I also noted various inexpensive replacement LED bulbs on eBay from numerous vendors. I doubt that they would be anywhere near as bright as the Bargman or...

Our 1987 30P toilet each year seems to have leak issues. We have had the main seal leak where the toilet drain connects, the valves on the foot pedals leak...
Fred, I replaced the original toilet on a 1983 30P, and had no problems. Had the replacement toilet for 13 years, and it was still working fine when I sold...
I have 2, 40# aluminum propane cylinders that followed me home. They have not been upgraded to the OPD valves; I suspect that the original owner didn't know...
Jim, Not sure what model Avion you have, but I would get the aluminum #40 bottles upgraded and use them yourself. You don't state whether your #30 are steel...
Jim, I agree with Tim, but that's up to you. My 28A uses 40 # tanks, frankly I thought all in the late 1980's did. I got my 40 # tanks upgraded for about 15 -...
Tim, I've thought about changing my setup to use the 40# tanks, as I really need to change the regulator and pigtails anyway. Of course, the regulator output ...
Jim, Our 28-footer uses the 30# bottles, as did our 1973 25-footer. I might have to set the 40# tanks on the bracket, just to see what they look like. Of ...
