Yea the Victron appears to be an OK unit.
you already have 24v running into the cab to the X1 point in the power panel. I was mainly reusing cables the way I wired mine using the alternator 24v as a junction point. Since I was removing the polarity box to simplify things, I had them...
The excite wire is fed down from K11 once the oil pressure goes above 15 PSI and de-energizes K11.
now that 24v’s ability to do anything in the regulator once it arrives at the excite terminal relies on it being able to complete a circuit to ground…
Play = bad… IME humans can perceive ~.005” of play by hand. .005“ is outside of any DS spec I have ever seen(hinging test, ect) Especially when talking about driveshafts and pinions, felt movement = fix it NOW…
Partially operable… you will loose that system that is fed by the tank you drained. Federal motor vehicle safety standards(FMVSS) dictates that the systems be separated. They are fed with a common source(compressor, dryer, wet tank) but thru individual check valves on the service tank inputs...
I should have mentioned thats a rear handle, those have no locks and fit with only a little door skin modification and of course fabricating a back side bracket that sandwiches the door skin when bolted to the back of the handle. the front handles have locks and are ~1/2" longer. I did the...
95-04 4runner or tacoma. I have been running toyotas since mid 80’s and have never broken a handle. Currently running 5 with these vintage handles(6 if you count the LMtV) in my immediate fam without issue.
tons of these in junkyards as there are lots of these toys out there and the handles...
It depends on the truck. The A0 uses 12v to turn on the 24v ign Relay and has no 12v ign relay.
the A1 uses 24v to control the ign relays and has 12 and 24v ign relays.
I swapped my A0 ign control over to 24v control to avoid low voltage dropping the ign ckt offline during a start.
the cool...
TO TEST IF YOUR EMERGENCY BRAKING INVERSION VALVE/SYSTEM IS WORKING:
This will work better with two people.
On level ground, chock the wheels, start the truck and fill the air tanks(dryer purges).
Apply park air/release the parking brakes and shutdown the engine.
Open the tank drain and release...
the 2 batteries are wired in series, which creates a 24v battery. with 24v applied from a 24v alt, both batteries are charged equally with nothing drawn from the middle of the batteries.
under normal conditions 12v from the battery would be disconnected and 24v would be used to create the...
Well I don't have to guess, I have measured/calculated it, for an A0 truck at least:)
For a 1078 with the specified incandescent light sizes and everything turned on and high beam while standing on the brake pedal ~27A @13V
I measured the 24V load on my A0 truck and posted about it. Those...
