    Mercury 6.2 ECT DTS Axius Voltage Issue

    Finally got to my boat to scan it. Not sure if you still need it. Here is running and not running.

    Wont rev past 4k -ESA issue?

    Another thing that might be worthwhile doing is disconnect the tach. A failing tach can mess up ignition. Disconnecting the feed coming from the coil to it and running is a simple test.

    Wont rev past 4k -ESA issue?

    Is the ESA spring being depressed? Does your ESA have two switches? Show a picture of the ESA switch plate both in gear and in neutral.

    Need help asap please. Water out of "weep" holes after impeller change

    Sounds fine to me. One side of the exhaust is always warmer than the other.

    Mercury 6.2 ECT DTS Axius Voltage Issue

    When I go up to my boat in a few days, I will put my Diacom on with the battery switch on and off and see what I get.

    Mercury 6.2 ECT DTS Axius Voltage Issue

    I have a 2017 6.2L but it's the newer Mercruiser developed engine(Not a GM). It does however still use the GM PCM if I am not mistaken. On my engine, there is a separate power harness that goes directly to the battery because it wants 12V ALL THE TIME. It's also going straight to the battery to...

    Trailer Brakes

    I have a few RPIs. One is a video server, one controls my 3D printer and the other is for experiments. I need to get my Python skills back though.

    Trailer Brakes

    Yes but not made by TSMC. Made by ASML a Dutch company. BTW...I was a chip designer my entire career as an EE. My best friend is currently a senior director at Google. All of Google's chips are made by TSMC.

    Trailer Brakes

    Might be one reason but the main reason is most of their business is with the USA and it makes sense to build the factory here. BTW...there is no one special machine that makes chips. There are many machines that are hundreds of millions of dollars but there is a whole process to make chips...

    LiFePO Batteries ???

    I never stated what type of batteries get charged from the solar controller through the ArgoFET. Your engine batteries do!!!

    LiFePO Batteries ???

    On lithium batteries, the amount of charge they will accept is as much as the charger can source up until it's close to 100% full. I see 90A received on my older 200AH bank until they were up into the 14V region which is basically fully charged...then it has a slight taper. Now that I have...

    LiFePO Batteries ???

    The solar controller only goes into float once it has completed bulk and absorption. Once it senses a slight reduction in voltage from the battery, it comes out of float and back into bulk, starting the process over again. Not sure how that really works right going through that ArgoFET isolator...

    LiFePO Batteries ???

    This is something new that you could have used with this project. It's A DC to DC converter that can charge each direction. This would be perfect for motorhomes that go somewhere and sit awhile as long as the house batteries are charged via solar...

    Trailer Brakes

    Define "let foreign companies build" super computers. I was an engineer and designer on the F-22 Flight computer. Nowhere did foreign companies build anything other than some of the chips which we designed. Right now TSMC fabs 90% of the world's chips which is why they are building a factory...

    LOL...I just bought these recently from Amazon!

    LiFePO Batteries ???

    You just set the float voltage to 13.5V. Will not harm them at all. Most LiFePO4 battery manufacturers spec that voltage.

    Well...My set17 is USA

    Trailer Brakes

    The last 20 or so Timken bearings I have purchased have all said "Made in USA" on the side of the bearing and race themselves. The Timken Seals were made India. I am guessing you don't purchase Timken bearings! I buy the SET4 and the SET17 sizes for my utility and travel trailer. Both are made...

    Trailer Brakes

    Bearings and races are simple to replace. When I buy a trailer, first thing I do is replace the bearings/races with US made Timken bearings. I can replace one hub's bearings and races in around 15 minutes including packing the grease into the bearing.

    Blue Sea ACR with two batteries is not charging

    Does your ACR still have it's ground connected? Usually you run that ground wire through a fuse to ground. The ACR has a yellow light that comes on bright yellow when it connects the two batteries. Does it come on eventually? What battery voltage do you measure at each battery when the engine...
