 Good morning from from erinbury Today's even exciting day. We're gonna rip out the dash. Isn't that right badge? We're gonna rip out the dash It's gonna be the most exciting day Just in case anybody doesn't know this could turn into a lot of work here we didn't get very far yesterday We What's this we part? Yeah. Yeah, it rhymes with me That's the we here. I was working on it yesterday. I didn't get very far It's it's a little beyond my comfort zone. It's it's on the way out of his comfort zone. It is it's honestly But I got them on to an APU now, right? We'll talk about that later if anybody's a trucker. You know what that is We're gonna try and fix this door This is the door this one is brand new Yeah, I don't know we have some doubts here. We've got it down to 39 degrees So we're gonna rip it all apart so it doesn't work down Also, um, I just said my friend take off he does want to buy the bus I have had a separate offer from someone they say whatever the prices. I'll give you $1,000 more Honestly, I'm not looking to make money. I just want to cash out. So I might be selling it to my buddy in 60 days This all depends on well timing wise all depends on a Friend of mine who would potentially help me. We're trying to work out different ideas And hopefully he's available. If not, like I said, I definitely need to get into something that is friendlier with my wallet because Driving as much as I do making as little as I make having the funds getting smaller and smaller and smaller I got to make sure that my trajectory can continue on YouTube. So I don't have to stop the videos So yeah or downgrade to like a moped Which is still a possibility. We just made some progress and by me we I mean badge So that thing looks like a giant pain in the butt there. So if you could tell the Vehicle engineers some Some wise words what would you tell them? Well, it's a four-letter words. Yeah covers off This is what holds That right there's a heater core, right? That's a condenser. Oh the condenser. That's where the AC comes through. Okay, put your camera right in there with light Okay, okay Now when you put the key on yeah Right. Yeah, you put the AC on max there. You see what's happening Jack. What's happening? We get nothing nothing is happening door is supposed to close, right? Yep So when you put it up the cold or to warm it don't move. It's just moving there now. Yeah, yeah, right? Yep, so then it moves down now, right? Yeah, so you know what it is, right? What? See yeah, how long it takes yeah, it's vacuum now. That's full. That's fully closed right there. Okay, okay And then not what that does is when it's down like that it goes through the heater And when it comes through when we put it up the other way it comes Up and forces the air See See what it's doing. Yeah. Yeah, it's taking forever to do it, huh? Right? That's the problem So we're gonna and you're right. I'm gonna have to believe you in this one. It is electric motor Badges always stays for flexion right now, so it's got to be the switch has to be because that switch is working all right All right, so now we're gonna take a look at the back Part of these control switches, so we're just prying on the dash here Look at this This is like Christmas This here is a double USB connection These are cigarette lighters Many people use cigarette lighters. That's right. Nobody so what we're gonna do is take the two wires and Positive negative is clarity sensitive. So you have to have Positive negative, right? We're gonna make a little bigger hole and we're gonna install two of these in this dash So you can charge this stuff because he's got cables all over the place So that's what you need these here are like eight bucks off Amazon. Can you believe that yeah now? For the RV people you got these in your RV these things fail I've had two in my V light that's failed already and I Don't know what it is But as you know, it's made in China and you cannot take it apart So you have to replace the whole piece. You can't fix it And I don't know what goes in them, but they they quit working So you buy them for eight bucks off Amazon and put them in on your RV There's usually two or three in there. So that's what we're doing after this. Yeah, and these these ones on Amazon There's different colors. You can get red green or blue. I went with blue The rest of my dash is green. However, the radio is blue. So I figured that would match well with that So we're gonna get rid of the eject button. We're gonna eject the eject button And take out these two power ports and replace it as well as we're still looking for the Vacuum line fix on the back side. Well, I'll be damned. Oh, you didn't fix it. Did you? Well, I figured out. Oh my god, Jack's fixed it. Look out, man. We're in trouble badge I figured out why the top one wasn't working It wasn't plugged in How difficult of a fix was that? Not very difficult guys So we're gonna pop these things out. Well, no wonder this thing doesn't work. It wasn't wasn't plugged in It's fun So we remember we have the dash off now two days ago. I Said oh, you got everything fixed. Yeah You'll find out with something else and sure enough here. We are well. It's funny because the day I was driving back here Only after I left that the part where there's a Accident on the freeway then the light happened to just go out conveniently Okay, so the bus knew it knew that it needed more help. So it was just you know everybody knows You get the dash off you don't see how we did it there, right? Took the screws out of here, and it's all clips, but the headlight switch Has got this plunger on it. Now there's two ways you can do it You can put a little o-ring pick in there and take the handle off or else you can put your hand up in behind the switch And you push down on the little Button in there So when you do that you push it back in and that turns the switch off, right? And it'll stay in there. So now when you go and put the dash back on you got to push it down, but that's not a big deal I Just thought you know that because you'll be sitting there pulling that thing for hours and it won't come up And you're gonna say Jackson back did it, and he didn't have a problem doing it Well, that's why because we push the pin in. Yeah, that is a little tricky stuff. So now he did the dash But you got to remember we got lots of miles, right? Mm-hmm and lots of time so These bulbs they last for about five six years and they burn out the trick to this is is A dash to get it out you take these four bolts out that hold it here because we've got it out anyway, right? Mm-hmm. This is like a Snowball effect you take one thing and start doing everything the reason we took the dash panel right out Was because we got to cut these off and put ends on them for the for the USB plugs, right? USB plugs the way to go cigarette lighters are sort of You know they put cigarette lighters in and they don't put no ash trees Go figure that one My dog's got two cigarette cigarette light one a power point and a cigarette lighter and it has no ash tree That's kind of figure honey, but yeah, that's what it is Okay, so you take them out Now you got to be very careful because you got that cable for the shifter, right? You just pull this out a little bit When you just wiggle it out you get a so and then you can get into the dash balls, right? Which one did you say was out the top but around the 30 to 80 miles per hour you had this for how many years now? Do you do one or all all of them? So you take them like this and turn them And you see how if they're colored if they're black They're probably no good. Look at that jacks. Well, you got all of them pretty damn close, eh? Put the bulb in Put it in let's go man. That's it. Look up. Look at this jacks. We got lucky man Look at this it even fits. You don't even have to drill it out Look at that. That's so cool. Something's got to switch here eventually, don't it? All it is bad luck we got So we had to pry these things out a small pain in the butt But basically you squeeze on the sides and then just kind of whack it out of there with a mallet or your hand or something So how we looking here? Look at that pretty sexy We're in good shape. What are we gonna do? What are we gonna do? Now you see these these are carbide burrs These are very expensive. Oh Wow, see this with either steel ones except this one's aluminum run, right? Yep, but you take that Why was the drill where the hell would I be? You got to use a little one Well, that's just chewed that thing right up, huh? Bingo, baby Boom, we got four USB ports or USB ports. That's awesome I don't think any other short bus that I know of has four USB things like this Nobody along with air conditioning Cruise control and you know all the other features you've been keeping track of okay, so now you know that It was such a pain in the ass to get this off, right? Yep So now what we're gonna do is make our life really easy We're gonna take marker Let's see what color we got. Oh purple your favorite color We're gonna take purple And you're gonna say what the hell's he do that for so when you're standing on your head putting them things on you know the positive goes on the purple All these wires are live so Take your batteries disconnect them and all that crap and yeah, right? We'll do it live We'll just try not to burn everything down And you just crimp them ends on there really tight Say you don't come off Just like so just like so you remember this when we did this when we didn't so this has got I'm gonna take it I ain't a gamble on this one I'm gonna say the block is negative and the one with the yellow stripe is The power one right so all right so the other way how you can tell is By looking at the previous Snappery the same way it's yeah the one This one has a slight red on the part that's closest to you, so I'm gonna guess that the yellow wire Jack's this positive. Oh shit. We're right again Jack See him learning things here members life Don't touch them. You touch them. You're gonna be in trouble All hell will break loose if you touch the wires together You're gonna blow the fuse and then you don't have the manual so you won't know what fuse your blue. Yeah, right? That makes sense. That's why he's doing positive first Is that right? Is that where you're doing positive first? Yeah So now to get them on that's why you need to positive right yep, so we know the blocks are negative and the ones with stripes are Positive right you make sure they're really on there good like so So we got that done now. We got to put the dash in pull this shit back on See now if we had this all decided when you for broad the first time how many times we had the dash off We could have done just to rip the whole thing apart, but all that good true. No, however We're doing in stages. However, this wasn't out before yeah, but we did it's a good Actually, I'm glad that it did go out because I didn't know that it was missing a cruise control And we added a cruise control. No, we might add to put that in to make complete the circuit too. Oh Really probably killed a problem there. Yeah Because they don't put cruise control and they won't put the bulb in right and if there's no bulb then Then it might not work. That's the check you've turned it on you start counting 1,000 Right 1,000 1,000 2,000 3,000 4,000 so 4,000 tells me that the glow plugs are warmed up with the engine is right Now on a 73 it should get about 11 count when it's really cold So wait and you can do this everybody says you can't but you can do it you turn it on for 11 count Turn it back off turn it back on for 11 count turn it back off Turn on for another 11 account and it'll start guaranteed in cold weather in cold weather Okay, so this here is the USB but it's lit up, right? But that's only an LED. So if you're worried about that Kellenet, just put a switch on it, but they're on all the time, which is not a bad thing Look at that. We're on Charges works charging And last one That's four more times charging and what you had three hours. That's amazing What a what a great upgrade these things are and again, I got them on Amazon I don't know what search criteria I searched for but if you put in USB Let's see. Well, if you put in USB cigarette lighter, that's not gonna work But if you put in USB marine Plug, I think that'll get you to where you need to be all right update Dash is back where it belongs now. We're working on the Heater door actuator. This is a thing that we're gonna replace Okay, you van dwellers This is a AC part of it. Now if you got to change your AC condenser You have to take this cover off this one bolt right here You just cut that out like that and then you just put a little bit of two-sided tape or Right stuff or something on there just to seal it because this little bolt It's gonna take you just about four and a half hours So you just cut that out like that and boom you're out in an hour So and this is a drain for the AC because it'll get moisture in it So you make sure that's clear and you'll see when you've got the air conditioning running You'll see the water dripping out. That's normal okay So if somebody says it's gonna take you 14 hours to change your AC condenser just say no tell Just cut that bolt out All right, so Badger's out taking a coffee break and I got this thing back installed. Oh crap. There. He is So I'm just gonna Put this bracket back on the metal thing and this so just use your imagination We'll get it on like that. All right. Here's a moment of truth Badge and I just discussed The fact that we weren't a hundred percent certain it was in fact the the part that we replaced So the only way to see if this thing is working Is a warm up the engine warm up the coolant? Once a temperature gauge is in the middle and then turn the AC on and hope for the best and we're back The memory card filled up so didn't get to Show you where we last ended up. We have everything put back together Had another lovely meal with a badge in L. I think tomorrow. It's gonna be my turn Gonna get some yeah, gonna get some stuff and also I think we're gonna do a like a rig tour of What badge has because he has a very interesting setup over there for off-grid? You know setup and all that so I just want to say thanks again to badge and L for All the hospitality all the fixes. I think this bus. There's nothing currently Lacking on the bus to fix is really there's nothing else the engine is perfect the inside is perfect the Outside is perfect. It rides perfect runs perfect. It's perfect. So On that note, some of you guys are probably wondering why would you want to sell the bus? Why would you do that after so much hard work and I will be? Things are still kind of in the planning process so I have one of the best bus builders as a friend of mine and I will be revealing what we end up doing because there's a few ideas that we're tossing around and I think it would be fun to To do something a little bit different And that's all I will reveal for now. I know I've said some other possibilities before But it's still it's up in the air and if that's the case I think what I'm gonna try and do is just blast through some states. So East Coast. I'm coming for you I know meet-ups are hard. So if there is a weekend And I'm close to a big city. Perhaps I'll you know send out a video last minute Or a day before something like that. So otherwise Yeah, if any Yeah, if anybody has some recommendations where students should go throw it in the comments and I will read it now Look into it. Thanks so much for watching and I will see you tomorrow
