Tired of fighting water on my Alltrax conecttions

Thanks for the fast shipping Scotty! Got the 388 silicon in today, once I replace the stuck solinoid when it gets here Friday I will update....As it’s gonna rain this weekend and I’ll be hunting....

Well.... Scotty got me the solinoid a day earlier than expected! Thanks bro! Only problem is.....I had the same issue. Come to find out it was something with the double connection under the pot box. I think I have it working now, but may still need a new Pot box in the future to be sure. :(. Looks like I have a spare solinoid now anyway......

Put the 388 Silicon on all the connections, so we’ll see how it does with moisture once it cures....

If you are using a true potentiometer they are very susceptible to water interference. Try to keep this component dry.

Maybe Dlab could benefit from the use of Silica gel
a commonly used desiccant ?
I've seen it in tubs used in boat bilge areas and in the
bag packets for shipment of metal components to
prevent rust.

Wife gets them sometimes in her Amazon shipments
as big as two hands side by side but she tosses stuff
out as soon as it comes out of the box.

Scotty, the 388 Silicon has completely solved all of my issues. Tested it pretty hard on a hunt this evening and everything performed better than normal. You got me a tad worried about the pot now, may take it out again and seal it....
