I agree it's weird since they are on different battery banks. The voltage meter in the panel is showing no voltage. I have no DC voltage and can not get the hatch to work. I can't believe all 4 batteries are dead.
On my 2005, I do not have DC power to the three solenoid switches in the cabin. I hit all three switches and they don't energize. The battery charger is running so I don't believe my batteries are dead. Any suggestions?
Thanks for the update and I'm glad you're happy with your new install. Not sure it was worth doing all these modifications unless your new unit was a lot less expensive that the Dometic unit. My new 16K Dometic unit was literally plug and play. Took one hour to pull out the old unit and install...
Don't know much about the MarinAire brand but I changed out my AC with a Dometic DTU16 last year and could not be happier. Very easy to install. Very quiet. Cools the cabin very fast. Although my 12000 BTU unit worked, it took forever to cool the cabin on a 90 degree day. The 16000 BTU unit...
I have a 2005 340 DA and was wondering if anyone has a cockpit sunpad cushion they want to sell? I'm referring to the cushion that fits on top of the table in the cockpit.
The fan on the 16K is bigger so it was hitting the ductwork. Just needed to angle it a little bit and it worked out fine. The pan is actually smaller on the 16K unit vs the 12K.
SMXir. When I talked to technical support today they said some SMXir's work with this unit and some require a simple modification to the thermostat wire. It all depends on when it was manufactured. My boat is a 2005 so fortunately it worked with no mods needed. If it didn't work, the...
Success!!!! New Dometic DTU 16000 BTU installed. Only took a little over 2 hours to swap out the old one and put in the new unit. I paid $2400 for the new DTU and installed it myself. Was relatively easy. Only problem was the new unit was bigger than the old so I had to install it at an angle...
I talked to Dometic technical support yesterday and they told me the exact same thing. Good to know and thank you for thinking of this for me. Unit is supposed to be delivered to my house tonight and I'll install it tomorrow. Fingers crossed it all goes well. Dometic technical support has a...
Will do. I just talked to Dometic technical support and he's very familiar with the 340 and definitely recommends upgrading to a 16K unit. He walked me through some of my install questions and I will be swapping out my unit this weekend. Dometic has great technical support available 24/7. The...
Yes I had an experienced boat HVAC guy do a complete service on my unit. He was the one who told me for the 340, it should really have a bigger AC unit. He said 12K BTU was too small for the size cabin in a 340. My unit is blowing plenty of cool air but it just doesn't seem to be enough volume...
