For diagnostic purposes, maybe just unplug it? I didn’t even know there was a cabin air sensor, although I haven’t cracked into my service manual in several years, I find the html format to be very annoying.

Did you ever figure this out? I’m still certain that mine is transmission related, but haven’t had success running it down yet. I’m pretty much in parts-cannon mode now.

And I just used them for the first week. They were spectacular. I got the 7.5 thickness and found it very comfortable. I’m easily 230 lbs, and the kids grandfather is pushing 300, both of us found the thickness and support to be awesome vs the original mattress One issue noted, the mats did...

Adventure Trailers. You can see the awning bracket in a few of the AT Chaser posts in the for sale section.

That is shockingly clean and nice. I’m not sure mine looked that good even after I did all the repairs and overhaul and re-paint. GLWS.

When you say “really badly” what does that mean? Leaves a puddle when parked or just flinging oil all over? How often are you adding oil? Is the differential breather plugged? Do you know if the sealing surface on the input flange/yoke is destroyed or good? All these things matter...

I recently replaced my RTT mattress with Exped Megamats. No real use experience yet, but when deflated they sure fit nicely.

I’ve noticed a few posts from various people? Lately that seem rather bot-like. Similar pattern, re-stating a question while providing no specific answer but lots of words. I initially chalked it up to cultural differences, but more and more I also suspect that we have bots racking up post...

Yes, let whichever side is less important overhang and burn it in. You are talking about the thickness of a weld bead in offset. Most of it will disappear and you can clean a bit up with a grinder, or use a smaller tube for the upper section.

Also far easier to weld, for several reasons. Don’t do this with something you plan to fish wires through or you will experience a “DOH!” moment!

Draw with CAD, Measure with Tape, Mark with Chalk, Cut with Torch, Weld with Stick… 0.07” Will be hard to notice in reality and will be consumed in the weld, except that the wall might be so thin you keep burning through it. Personally, I usually try to cut 1/2 the angle on each, I.E. 2 @ 5...

It will be good / fine for young kids if you’re not socked in long periods in bad weather. There is plenty of room to have 4 people sit in the corners and play cards or something, and getting the annex will make it feel downright huge when you take time to set it up… and that is a good...

No specific MB experience here, but lots of general diesel: Is it a variable vane turbo? It sounds like the variable vane plate (slightly different names in different brands) is sticking or worn. Or the solenoid that dumps the variable vane pressure is sticking. My 6.0 Ford used to do the...

It also seems to have gutters around the edge!

I believe you are likely to cook batteries if you have any high amp charge source without a high draw (mismatched) but I am an amateur and not an Electrical Engineer. I have found that my 200w solar and Victron MPPT does a decent job of limiting power when not needed, some days only producing a...

Are your batteries the same? Swap house and starter positions. I would be willing to bet the fault follows the battery. If that starter battery is more than a couple of years old, I would replace it. Normally I’m all about cheap troubleshooting first, but you will never know 100% if you...

Maybe also tell us what solar panel size you have and what its charging voltage is? You might just be cooking off your water and coincidentally noticed a fried battery at the same time you made a change?

My next step would be to disconnect both batteries and check their voltages separately, check the water in them, and then charge them individually, disconnected, with a plug-in charger to see if there is a problem. After that, reconnect each battery to its respective system without the relay...

Is the VSR adjustable? Possible that you just have it set to open too low? Various vehicles have different needs to crank properly, and a weak (or even new) battery with a relay opening too low might not crank you over enough. You could be diagnosing a combination of electrical system and...

At 30 watts, 2.2-2.5 amps in ideal sun?, it seems unlikely that you could damage a Suburban battery with occasional use. You would be lucky to push 10 amp-hours a day into the battery.
