I received the diamond wave dimmer yesterday from rv parts country. Installed it tonight for the two ceiling lights over the bed and they won't dim. They turn on full brightness but nothing with the dimmer slide. Any thoughts?

Make sure it's a LDSDim25 with three wires, white to light, red to positive and black to ground. First make sure your stock switch is switching the positive lead not the negative, one of mine was wired on the negative side from the factory and was giving us fits till we took the time to test the stock wires for neg/pos, worked great after correcting.

Ditto to all of what Rich said.
When you pulled out the factory switch did you keep pulling to find the ground wire ?

Yes, I pulled out all of the lines and used a test light grounded to the frame to confirm each wire. I'm wondering if these particular leds won't dim or if it's a bad switch but don't know how to confirm either of those.

Well you could wire the switch to a different light.
I know it has to be wire one way and one way only to work.
Mine is not here to look at to help you out.
It just went into the body shop to try and fix those odd Hexagon cracks again.!!!!
And some other cracks that started behind there old Repair.
Rather odd.

Ok she's back from the body shop 1 day before we leave for the Oregon rally. Paint looks really good and the cracks are long gone.
Bad new is it's a dirty mess and I can't wash it for 2 weeks. Well at least that side anyway.
I'm going to hand wash the rest of it tomorrow before we head north.
Glad to have it back.

Ok that's done now on to some Mod's I had on the bench waiting for the rig to get back home.
We have the Wine fridge in our entry closet and it tends to get rather warm inside the there because of the fridge running all the time.
So I found this cool exhaust fan system on Amazon. The have a lot of different combos and you can link multiple fans together if needed. So I started with 1 and the control panel. You can set the temp you want it to stay below. Time will tell how well it works.
I put it in the back wall behind the fridge blowing the warm air into the basement area.

Someone here recommended this same brand but one that is USB powered, to use in your electronics cabinet to vent the heat from that space. We have one in ours. Well, it went out after about 8 months. I contacted the seller (bought through Amazon) and they sent a replacement, with shipping label to send the old one back!

Next just a simple one the took two tries to get it right. The first latch I tried did stay latched. I found this one on Amazon.
It's a longer latch.
This is on the pass through silverware drawer. It just won't stay put while we're traveling and it keeps pushing the doors open. This is installed on the backside / table side that way you really won't see it on your normal day to day use. We'll just latch it when we travel.

This is a simple docking station seal I made out of some scrap foam I had. I cut it out at two different diameters so it will fit down in the hole and not fall through.
This is to keep dirt, bugs and rodents out.

So I returned the switch and ordered a new one. Installed the new one an it works flawlessly, it was just a bad switch. All of your mods have given me a lot of good ideas now it is just finding the money to do them.
Thanks for the help.

Looks great! I'd bet there's a market for that. Our "kneel pad" version doesn't seal as well as yours.

Erika I don't think an ant could find it's way past this thing. Super simple and I bet they could be mass produced for about 50¢ and sold for $10 
I'm not sure where I acquired the foam stuff I used. I always save that stuff from packaging. Probably came out of a TV box or something like that.

If it was coated in a more durable covering, it would be in my cart!Erika I don't think an ant could find it's way past this thing. Super simple and I bet they could be mass produced for about 50¢ and sold for $10

Jerrod....why do you use 2 water pressure regulators?
Jesstruckn/Jesstalkn
Well-known member
Jim only 1 regulator ...
The lower section is just a pressure gauge.
So I can read incoming line pressure and then regulated pressure.
