Has anyone found a place to get the red plastic cover for the jump bolt/stud, I have destroyed mine. Ford doesn't have them and I cannot find a part number. I get My hands on one I am going to 3 D print one.
Hate to ask but do you know the name of the Box the positive post is attached to. I have had to jump mine because of dead battery and Have broke the plastic red tab, Can not find the name of that component
Took My 2024 to Dealer second Battery fail. Have to Jump it to get it there. Ford say there will be a software update for it this month. Until then keep the parking brake on and it wont happen. OK I am buying a 1991 F-150 today.Broke the red tab covering the positive post. Dealer wants 50 bucks...
Hi I am a long time solar hobbyist. My Knowledge is yours. I too believe in overkill. I am going to try to link this to a DIY form. Solar does not have to break the bank. I do recommend getting the HF Solar kit. It is a great way to get your feet wet and deciding if solar is something you want...
One of my Main reason for 3k PSW is when I am on the road or in the field boonies. The ability to have the Mrs or Daughter to just plug the truck in. Neither of them have a clue on how to pull a gen unit out. electric start or pull. Now turning a car key and hitting a transfer switch they don't...
Well I ratcheted up my insanity. I pulled my 2k MSW inverter an replaced it with a 3k PSW. The uninstall & replacement took about 30 min. Soft start PSW. Initial testing seem to be on the plus side. I am keeping the Breaker on the 200 amp side. So far so good. Post Photos when I get the hard...
Wizziard My 12 volt died just wanter to keep you informed. My Hybrid 2024 Atlas Blue 12 Volt Battery Died a good death yesterday . I did in My opinion abuse the little fellow. The Ford house came and towed it in and said cells in it check to be toast. Under warranty so no out of pocket drop. The...
My Hybrid 2024 Atlas Blue 12 Volt Battery Died a good death yesterday . I did in My opinion abuse the little fellow. The Ford house came and towed it in and said cells in it check to be toast. Under warranty so no out of pocket drop. The sad part they put the very same battery (new) Back in it...
Lots of Good Ideas. But I already have the 2k 12v Giandel inverter in play. Then the PSW WBREZ . Popped up at 167.00 I could not ignore it . Should be a easy swap
Ok I bit the bullet and went for a PSW Inverter. The Dimensions were almost the same as Th MSW I have installed. However I can hardwired this. The model is has a soft start and being PSW it should handle the LG Fridge and the well pump. I will update this thread as soon as I get the inverter...
The Well Pump a 1/2 HP Surface pump shallow well @ 65 Feet Stayed working the entire time. I had installed a 110 Plug onto the pump years ago. It was as simple as plugging it in to the bed of the Mav's 110 outlet. The MSW inverter is the gaindel 2000 watt MSW. It does fit behind the rear seat...
18 Degrees This am. No Trees down on the lines. Web did drop off for a bit. So far the Weather is supposed to be starting to warm up. James Makedofornow. Thanks for that data on the Grid.
Having the ability to just plug into a 2k power source during a outage is awesome it give time for grabbing a gen unit and firing it up.. The cold just hit again today. I have no doubt we will loose the grid power. Mav is parked by the Well house.
I don't drive mine with the inverter on I turn it off hit the breaker and unplug the positive when not in use. The setup is the result of the big Freeze we had in Texas 2021. Three days power was out due to a storm Mav stayed parked by the well house. I don't understand much how it works, I...
Yep I places a 2K Inverter behind my back seat. 2k is Peak I don't think it will ever hit that. I just run a well pump & lights in the house & I leave the key on. So Far after three days The Mav started up no sleep mode noticed. 200 amp Breaker to The 2k MSW Inverter.
Well pump draw is 6 amps...
The install went well. I did this because power here in the swamp area of Athens goes out so often. And I do Neglect my Generators and when the Bad Happens I need power now. I need power to run tools saws ect in the field. I needed something that would get us by when this occurs. If you haven't...
Sorry about not answering but the phone and data lines just came back. The Setup is like my old photos go. Extension cord to the back bed to a 1/2 hp Well pump that only ran periodically it pulls Six amp when running . Just enough of a drip so the pipes don't freeze. I did leave the Mav key on...
