Steve's Cabin
United States
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 3 ก.ย. 2020
This channel is about our property in the Poconos in Pennsylvania. It has a cabin on it that is in really rough shape and it also has an old garage which is also in really rough shape. The good news is that it is a great piece of land with a beautiful pond. I will have a modular home built on the property, but I plan on repairing the existing cabin and garage. My goal is to use the cabin as a guest house for family and friends. There is a lot of work to do. I am no expert and I will probably need some help from my friends I make here!

This is part Two of trying to figure out why my backhoe won't charge and what's going on with the electrical system. The alternator doesn't charge, the batteries were drained and one is DEAD. All the idiot lamps are on, the tach doesn't work. The directionals are acting wonky. What's going on? How can we fix this?

I had a mechanical thumb welded onto my backhoe. Immediately afterwards the backhoe would not start. The batteries were really weak and the alternator would not charge.

Trail Cam at the Black Bear Biting Pole
มุมมอง 77หลายเดือนก่อน
I used to have a trail cam pointed at a utility pole black bears liked to rub against and BITE! after only a couple of weeks I moved it. I just recently purchased another trail cam just for this one spot. It's winter so the black bears have been hibernating. I imagine come spring time I will get a bunch of great captures.

As always cool 😁
I just love the way this bird sounds cool 😁
He's got a lot to say!
Thanks for the video. Looks like you are learning to maintain and operate the equipment you will need to really enjoy your land.
Literally saved me from feeling like I wasted 450 bucks getting one used. It was that loose ground for sure.
There isn't a lot to these ride on mowers. If you had to buy one new it's a whole lotta money! So I spent a small amount on repairs and a battery and I got to great machine that I can use for years. I am sure yours will too!

Nice 👍

Glad it was just the fuse. I’m assuming you used some electrical tape on the split wire. At least you don’t have to worry about the batteries and alternator now.
I have some wire shrink wrap I will repair that with hopefully this weekend.
😂
A nice 🤬 learning experience. I’m sure it cost you some money you probably would have had to invest sometime in the future anyway. At least you know you are improving the reliability of your equipment.
yeah - It definitely needed batteries but the $135 for the alternator rebuild may have been a waste. I guess it could have been worse! Electrical systems is my biggest weakness as a mechanic but I really learned a lot figuring out this mess!
Why not just burn it ?
Keep us posted. Coincidentally, mine is doing something similar. Mine will crank but the battery light comes on and the alternator is not charging. When I rev it up sometimes the battery light will go off and it stays charging. When the rpm’s come down, it stops charging and battery light comes back on. I haven’t spent a lot of time trouble shooting. Been too cold. Ha!
Part two comes out Wednesday! I got it repaired but it was a stupid error on my part. Your problem sounds like the exciter isn't going on till it hits a certain RPM. These alternators are easy to take off - maybe you can take it off and have a rebuilder test it for you. you can just jump the exciter and see if your issue goes away. If it does then you know it's the alternator. That's my two cents but when you see what was wrong with my machine you may think twice about listening to what I have to say!
Hay we all have to go sometimes lol.
Good info to know and Happy New year to you and your family.
Thanks, Happy New Year to you too!
Good luck! It can be aggravating at times 🤬
Ugh! This one was very frustrating and I did fix it but the actual problem was even MORE aggravating!
They are really curious!
😂LOL👍
Use a chain. They don't stretch more than about 0.1 mm.
I did! You should have kept on watching!
Beautiful 🦌💕
Bears are so cool
Good to know thanks for the review.
That pole is a popular place 😀
I see you have gotten more snow than last week but still cool stuff 👍👍
Snow's gone now but it is getting really cold!
@stevescabin5441 I am from Michigan and I know all about the cold stay warm.
Got to let the saw do the work done need to press down on it
Im sure putting some cheap thermal survival blankets over things like this when not in use would drastically improve the life span and most people who complain and leave bad reviews probably didnt think of that. This goes for all kinds of things put a cover on it simple and helps big time for oitside storage.Plus will help reduce the temperature fluctuations which will reduce condensation build up and gas degredation!
I have one here in Florida that comes and eats the bugs off of my trees every now and then. 👍
👍
Nice vid 🦌
Really entertaining video. Thanks !
Happy New Year! Great videos! 😊
Maybe it is a mating ritual?
Looks like two little monsters when they're eyes look at the camera 😮.
Ha ha! Like two kids playing in the yard 😁
Thanks for the review 🧦
Thanks for your review of the socks you wore throughout this video! Battery powered socks aren't for me, I prefer cotton socks on as my first pair and then wool socks over the first pair if I'm outside for an extended time... 🌺🌲🎅Merry Belated Christmas to you & your loved ones! 🎅🌲🌺 And... 🌸Have a Happy & Healthy New Year to you & yours & also to all of your viewers and subscribers. God Bless!!! 🌸 🌝
As Long As He Doesn't PEE - WE'RE GOOD, JACK!!!
I’ve not seen one of those! It looks like a handy attachment I’ll be considering getting 😀
You get some great shots of the animals in your area great job buddy 👍
Thanks! Always looking for good spots for the trail cams.
Looking at an animals eyes in the dark is funny and the way the foxes jump/bounce was really cute! 😋 Thanks for sharing! 🌝 👍
Very cool!
Nice 👍
A welder should know to disconnect the battery when welding.
Yeah - I have a battery switch on the thing - but even with doing that - it probably still would have burnt out the alternator. I guess you live and you learn. I am going back this week to pull it out to get it rebuilt.
Interesting video! Thanks for sharing your problems and solutions as you work on your property.
Good job!
I got to run up there and take that alternator out and bring it to ANFLO. They said they could rebuild it. Very aggravating.
I see why its by the hour
It does eat those little trees kind of slow - but I was still having a hard time keeping up with it. I am not as young as I used to be!
They look good and healthy. They are getting plenty to eat!
there's plenty for them to eat!
I'm over off rt 940 and NE extension. What part of the Poconos are you?
Very beautiful and cool bird we have one down here in Florida that comes into my backyard every now and then.
One of my favorite birds. They are powerful “tree chippers”. I’ve seen fairly large dead standing trees that they have dug very large cavities all the way through 😮.
They are neat - you can hear them gently pecking in this video - but I will be walking on the property and hear what sounds like a jack hammer going off! I would like to catch that on camera!
The more you know
So cool 👍
