  • Something completely different for this channel. Here we attempt to repair faulty Bennett Trim Tabs on Brian's BOAT!!!! The boat is a Bayliner 2855 Ciera from 1998. If you would like to see more attempted repairs on this boat, please say so in the comments section.
    Merch is here!!!!! www.puddlt.com/my-mate-vince

    Remember that this is just for entertainment and I am not an expert in these repairs. The processes in the video may not be the best way, the correct way or the safest way to fix these things. I do love fault finding and trying to fix broken things, so I hope that comes across in this 'Trying to FIX' series. Many thanks, Vince.

    Hey Vince, you can always check fuses with the circuits live. In the automotive repair industry, we typically use a test light connected to ground and check each side of the fuse. A blown fuse will only illuminate the test light on one side. I highly recommend that you start using test lights and substituted loads when checking circuits on cars and boats and stuff. A heavily corroded wire can still allow voltage to flow and show 12 volts on a multimeter and pass a ohm test, but will break down when you try to pass a substantial current through it. Watch some automotive repair videos on UA-cam if you have time. I highly recommend ScannerDanner and South Main Auto. They're some of the best automotive electrical diagnosticians on the internet.

    The switch order makes sense in that lowering a tab causes that side of the boat to rise and vice versa. So hitting the left switch down will cause the starboard side to rise, thus lowering the port side (relatively). So in land lubber terms: left up makes left side go up, right side up makes the right side go up, left side down makes the left side go down, and right side up makes the right side go up.

  • @GilesDenney
    @GilesDenney Рік тому +2

    The switch positions are correct. Once you engage the starboard “bow up” the following happens: First, it raises the port side tab which lowers the port stern. As the stern lowers, the starboard bow rises upward.
    For the opposite side, engaging the port “bow down” deflects the starboard side tab downward. Thus, raising the starboard stern section and lowering the port bow. As expected, engaging the port “bow up” has a reverse effect.

    • @Mymatevince

    @lkeil84 9 місяців тому

    From what I see, it does not matter if the battery is on or off as the power connection is directly to one of the batteries and not through the switch.
    And the operation is very simple. All centers of the double pole double throw switches have main positive power. Each swith does the same thing to the motor. Switch/s up runs the motor in forward and switch/s down runs the motor backwards. The port switch opens the Starboard port for either up or down just to enable that cylinder and the opposite on the other side. So one switch up opens that port and runs the motor forward. That same switch down opens that same port and runs the motor backwards. The motor has a common ground and one lead powered up runs it forward and the other lead runs it backward. If you should put one switch up and simultaneously put the other switch down, then the fuse would blow because now you have power on the forward winding of the motor as well as the reverse winding. Very simple little system.
    I was recently having a recurring sometimes failure that I found difficult to diagnose as in a larger boat, I have 2 separate switches without the bussing on them. There is the single middle wire that had some corroded crimp terminals, but only slightly corroded in the jumpers from that main wire to the other 3 posts. They would read good voltage without a load, but when under load, the high resistance would take the power away. This would have been rather simple to diagnose except for the fact that one of my switches was also intermittent with a slightly corroded contact internally. I finally changed both switches as well as redoing all of the crimp splices and everything has been perfect since.
    And I have found on my boat that every single wiring failure can almost always be attributed to an open type crimp splice that has corroded internally. Whenever I work on any of the wiring, the first thing that I do is replace all of the open connectors with a heat shrink type that I find very rarely fail even when under water.
    Great job fixing it as I did not know that individual solenoids were available and replaceable, thanks for that.

    Vince, if you are going to be doing more vehicle electrical you might want to invest in a "Power Probe" I use to do a lot of automotive electrical and they are a god send. You hook the main leads to the battery and the "probe" can then be touched to areas and it will tell you if it's grounded or hot and a little rocker momentary switch on it allows you to then inject hot or ground if needed (it has a resettable breaker if you overload it). The company also has extensions (it's already like 15' long but they have them another 30' for use on things like motorhomes, trailers and such) They also have special wire piercing probes that have tiny needle inside, you lay the wire into a grove and tighten the probe and it pierces the wire for testing, the holes are so tiny that there is no need to do anything to the wire when you are done. It's an amazing tool but a little pricy. If you plan on doing automotive (12v or 24v) then it's a super good investment.

    My son bought a boat the engine looked as beautifully clean as this one. Don't forget Vince if the fuses are blackened then the contacts in the fuse box will probably be the same and maybe need cleaning to, perhaps this increase in resistance is causing the fuse to blow. A long time ago someone told me to remember port and starboard as THERES NO PORT LEFT TO DRINK. Correct me if I'm wrong but those connectors bear a remarkable resemblance to computer power supply molex connectors. Oh yes here's a thought, maybe those switches are upside down if you turned them around the left switch would operate the left trim and the right switch would operate the right trim. Just a thought.

      Thanks BiFi. Nice one, you'll be first in line if I do BUT like most new things I try now here on UA-cam they've died a death. I don't know why as the people that watched them really liked them, but YT just didn't push them to the wider audience. I'm obviously biased but I thought they were great 🤣👍

    "It's all connected" 🤣 I got an MCU movie vibe after hearing that phrase. Well done in this video Vince! BTW got a MMV coffee mug in, may feature it in one of my future videos 😁.

      Nice one Shawn, I hope it enhances the flavour 😂 Whenever I hear "It's all connected" I now instantly associate it with 'Manifest' about the plane that went missing for 5 years. Properly binge watched all 3 series of that show 😎👍👍👍

    Nice work Vince.... nice deductive troubleshooting - excellent - did you finish up with a 20amp fuse ? Anything else may still blow depending on the draw for the solenoid. Perhaps moving both sides at the same time would cause the highest amperage draw.

    • @Mymatevince
      @Mymatevince  Рік тому +2

      Thanks Ron, yes, we put a 20Amp fuse in at the very end. Sorry, we forgot to film that bit. I think it still had a 15Amp in when testing 👍

    The trouble with boats is that lots of owners do their own electrics on them....and not everyone is as thorough as you.
    I mean look at the rats nest of wiring on that fusebox , and that was tidy compared to my first boat! Lol

      Friend of mine (Nathan) who came on a mine explore / repair video with me the other week actually lives on a boat, and I know he's told me about the nightmare he's had with the wiring with connector blocks here and there, and wires that were too thin burning out etc.

    well that was fun to see :) and what great fault finding techniques :) would it be possible to just swap the red and green wire to enable the right wire on the right side and left on the left :) just a thought :)

    • @Mymatevince
      @Mymatevince  Рік тому

      Thanks GDaddy, it would yes BUT apparently it is correct because the switches are labelled up as BOW. The left trim tab effects the right bow and the right Trim Tab effects the left bow. Other comments on here explain it better than that 😂👍👍👍

    Great video, I have learnt something new about a boat. For another boat video (Which we’d all like to see) why don’t you wire the trim switches into the fuse box under the dash instead of the horrible retro fitted wire with in line fuse? That would give it a more OEM feel and be independent of which battery the isolator is switched to.

      I'll mention that to Brian. There are 2 spare fuse board slots under there as well 👌👍👍👍 Cheers Techy

    Switch positions left/right ?
    Suppose that you are zooming along and want to lower the right side of the boat. You press the bottom of the right hand switch to lower that side by lifting the left side of the boat and vice versa

    • @Mymatevince
      @Mymatevince  Рік тому

      Thanks HeliBob, yes it makes complete sense now as the switch is labelled up as BOW. I was thinking more from a wire point of view rather than how it operates in the water 👍👍👍
