    Norcold Refrigerator Testing/Cleaning

    That would be my position if it comes to that. Although, I think (not sure yet) when the survey was completed it was fine.

    Norcold Refrigerator Testing/Cleaning

    All it does is hum in either mode. Worked fine last week. They pulled it out, did a survey and now it doesn’t work.

    Norcold Refrigerator Testing/Cleaning

    I have a 1998 Sea Ray 400 DA and the fridge has quit working....maybe. I have had the boat for 8 years and never had one issue with it. In the last 2 weeks it has been sea trialed, mechanically inspected and surveyed. Now the fridge does not work. The light comes on in front with battery or...

    Transducer Leak?? - 1998 Sundance’s 400

    Over the last few years I have a little water in the forward bilge. Everyone told me this is normal. In this time frame I have had a few water leaks as well (water heater, fresh water pump, coolant hose, etc.) so I never put a lot of thought into it. I also never noticed the forward bilge...

    Lofrans Windlass Gypsy

    Yeah, I e done that. It will actually slip some even before it gets to the rode.

    Lofrans Windlass Gypsy

    The rope. At first, it just wouldn't pull the know through. The knot is good and tight, it just wouldn't go through the gypsy. I could reach into the compartment and give it a slight tug and it would go right through. Now, sometimes it will slip just randomly on the rope while pulling the...

    Lofrans Windlass Gypsy

    I have 1998 SR 400 Sundancer and the windlass is struggling to pull the anchor up due to slipping. I’ve replaced the spring in the tensioner but it’s slowly getting worse. It is a Progress 1, but there are about 4 different sizes. Where can I find the size stamped on my windlass

    1998 400 SD Cooling Question

    The starboard engine (7.4) seems to be leaking a small amount of coolant. Maybe a cup or so after a 1-2 hour run. I assume it is the starboard because the plastic coolant reservoir was low at one point. I thought I discovered a leak around the pressure cap on the aft metal coolant reservoir...

    1998 400 SD Cooling Question

    Well, my concern was having it get low (leak gets worse) under way. It was small leak, but depending on cause it might have gotten worse. Was wondering g if a rise in temp would be a first indication. There was really nothing I could see visibly (at least initially) except a little coolant in...

    1998 400 SD Cooling Question

    Thanks, so eventually the temp will rise most likely?

    1998 400 SD Cooling Question

    So, I’ve lost a hose on the seawater pump before and I know the engine temp rises quickly. So my question is, if you lose coolant out of the internal cooling system will the engine temp rise quickly as well. I lost coolant in the bulge and found a leaking cap On the internal cooling system...

    7.4 Ignition Module

    So the saga continues. I used the boat a couple of times last week after I had checked all of the connections and had no issues. I watched the volt gauges and they sort of tracked each other with the starboard being a 1/2 volt or so higher but only went up to about 15 volts. On the 3rd day...

    7.4 Ignition Module

    I did find a service manual and download it. Man, a ton of info and a lot is over my head without some direction. That’s why I am curious about the codes. O way to know if you have a code without booking up a data recorder to the eco?

    7.4 Ignition Module

    I meant volts. Not sure why I put amps.

    7.4 Ignition Module

    So, a question. Unlike a car that throws out a check engine light, a mechanic has to plug a data coder into the ECM to see if there are any codes?

    LOCKED OUT-

    I had the set screw on a door handle get loose and the handle fell off. I just took two screw drivers and worked the latch back far enough to get the door open.

    7.4 Ignition Module

    More follow up: I checked all battery connections and found a loose battery cable on the starboard engine. I cleaned and added dielectric grease to all and tightened. I loosened the engine grounds, cleaned and added more grease there as well. I was told by an ignition manufacturer that most...

    7.4 Ignition Module

    Yeah, I saw your comment on that earlier. I looked on line and saw a couple of download options. I don't think my service package came with one. Is there a preferred place to download the service manual?
