Had the same thing happen to me this week. Took the edge of a knife and pried
up the pin enough to move it out of the hole and then inserted the pin back
through the hole. Took maybe 5 minutesGood luckTom SanctonM/S MORNING

I have had an Icom IC-M1V HT for over 15 years. It is the best radio I ever
had, but lately the battery has been going dead quickly. I bought a new battery
for it for $90 and that battery showed up DEAD and won’t charge ☹ I think some
EBay sellers got a hold of a bunch of never used but decades-
Same problem here...

No, stick it in at the pin. Mine came up quite easy. Make sure there isn’t

Thinking about Tef-gel and recommended practices by experienced people, I
once coated my trailer lighting harness connector for a small boat with
lanocote. My thoughts were as the prior posters, that it would keep away
future corrosion and perhaps improve connections.
I tested the fitting after I
There may be a complex, microscopic explanation. But the short answer I picked
up as an ME and in years of being a technical trainer is that the action of
crimping, staging, etc. to get a tight connection forces the dielectric out of
the way and gives connectivity through metal to metal contact.
Bill,
Harbor Freight is your friend. Stop by the Muskegon HF and pick up a $5
set of picks. You should be able to get one of the angled picks into
the pin hole. I have a set on the boat if you want to come down to
Whitehall this weekend.

Oddly enough, trailer connections are one of the "electrical plugs" which I
have mashed silicone dielectric grease into. I never had a trailer light
problem that could be traced to the connectors. Maybe, in your case
Bailey, it had something to do with it being lanocote?

OK guys, here is an explanation from my Missile Control days. What the
Tefgel is doing is acting as a "faying surface" sealant. Big words for
describing that the Tefgel is filling in all of the crevices between the
actual contact points. Remember that there is no such thing as a smooth
surfac
We recently updated the 12V system on our 33-2 this year. We reached out
to an ABYC marine electrician for advice about our plan.
I won't re-hash other thoughts in the previous emails, but my two cents:
- Connections are often an issue and the first place to look. Connections
may visually appear
Neil,
I forgot about things like missile contacts. Perfect example though. In a
similar way the 13kv, 4kv,and 480v breakers that I regularly work with all
have "stabs" that engage and disengage the bus bars. All of them have a
lubricant applied. I don't know anything about the chemical compone
Also interested in where the heck you put the batteries - like Michael, I
stopped with 2x group 31 plus a start battery. I think I could cut out the
existing battery shelf and maybe gain a few more amp hours with an
incrementally larger footprint/height but that’s it.
Agreed on some of the oth
CT shoreline. I know there’s many but any recommendations for winter storage on
the hard? Maybe one that allows me to do work.
We’re in Stamford now.

Jon,
No yard anywhere will let you do work on the hull.
Suggest you do what I did — move south. Now I only haul the boat once every 5
years to slap some paint on and then back to sailing a couple of days later.
Winter storage? Rather be winter sailing.
All the best,
Edd

Sucked up a snake of seaweed into the seacock and hose once. Had to remove
the line between the seacock and strainer to get everything out as it was
snaked in there pretty good. Once I got the hose off and seacock cleaned I
just closed it. Hooked everything back up and opened it again. BTW just
I like that! It seems like a good price too. I was looking for
installation instructions and would be interested to hear how it goes for
you.
