Bavaria Yacht Help! / Re: Alternator wiring

« Last post by marioxp on April 19 2024, 19:50 »

today I spoke with the man at the company that sold me the alternator.  It says the alternator is isolated.  And that it has the following connectors:
B+ positive pole to the battery
D+ to the indicator light that shows the alternator is charging. 
W to tachometer
B- to negative pole. 
He says there is no sensing wire!  I don't know if I will be able to use this alternator because it doesn't have a sensing wire and I use battery spliter.

I think you should get an electrical technician to connect it.

WLOCKLR 45mm. The one showing as LP in the SVB catalogue as LP which is the "family" name for that type but is actually the model for 30mm. JUst make sure you order the 45mm option. Also worth considering having the Volvo one repaired if it has corroded around the outlet. I had mine plated with stainless for around£50.

I'm finally back on board.

These are pictures of the new alternator, unfortunately I don't have any of the old one.

Does anyone have an idea how to connect?

My original muffler 46mm leaked.  I remember you saying that some of you had Vetus plastic put in and were satisfied.  Which model would you recommend?

Bavaria Yacht Help! / Genset in a Bavaria 44

« Last post by Ailatan on April 15 2024, 08:00 »

Is it possible to install a genset in a Bavaria 44?

I would like to know brand and location. I have measured the space above the engine and it seems that there is not enough room.

Ended up cleaning the gear stack without taking it out as well.  Result is not perfect, but good enough.

Base plate is very tightly attached to deck and I could not even fit my sharpest putty knife in between. New attempt in next spring maintenance with new tools (fishing line maybe?) and new energy

Bavaria Yacht Help! / Re: Control panel and relay panel not connecting

« Last post by Happysailor on April 14 2024, 15:29 »

Solved - Hi all, final update on the electrical issue I was having. Appeared to be a defective control board. Salt humid air found its way on the board around the fuses of the Spare relays. Very likely shortcircuited the board and thus complete board did not correspond with the button panel.

In case this happens to anyone with no new control board with relays at hand/ available on order, you can also make an emergency repair. Remove the relays and on the switching part (connections 30 and 87), fit an on/ off switch similar to traditional panels. Make sure they have sufficient amps, usual switchboard switches will work.
