Backup and Front Facing Camera Systems
After using the backup camera on a trip it was obvious that some improvements were essential. The night vision did not work because the camera infrared LEDs were reflecting off the plexiglass rear view port as well as also reducing the clarity of the image. This project replaces the original interna...

Re: Residential refrigerator
I agree, you really have to do your research. I took mine apart and it is well made. During shipping from China, UPS China dropped mine from a great height. It was a major horror show getting them to own up to the damage. The very heavy tansformer imprinted the heavy base plate but it still worked. ...

Re: Residential refrigerator
I installed a Haier, the detailed project is on this site. I would recommend upgrading the invertor. They run at 94 - 95% so there is no significant disadvantage to using a 120v fridge and it will give you a lot more options at a lower price. vertical size and depth with handles are the limiting fac...

Re: top clearance lights out. markers and headlights ok
The clearance lights are daisy chained and are powered through the headlight switch on the instrument panel on my 2000. The wires are marked as clearance lights but I think SMC only started printing on wires shortly before 2000. The clearance light wires on mine run down the drivers pillar and then ...

Re: Removing inner rear wheels, diff seal
I had dragging issues with my brakes, front and back. What I have been told is the phenolic cups absorb water if sitting to long and seize or don't release fully. On mine they overheated the pads and crumbled the lining, on the rear one seal was leaking and two abs sensors melted. I carry an infra r...

Then check the output side, it's a Y, 1 side shore in, 2nd side generator in, one out to inverter. If on shore power you shoul...

Vented Dryer Installation
This project adds a 110v vented dryer above the existing Splendide wash/dryer. The dryer portion of the Splendide did not work as well we wanted, leaving the clothes damp and in a clump. The dryer chosen has a vent that was simple to run through the ceiling and also had front cleaning lint traps. Ma...
