Check the breakers in the bathroom cabinet, if that's not it, check main fuse inside of the univolt.

Enjoy,

awesome Overlander. I love the wood in the International model. Also the trim, and padded ceiling, etc
We have loved ours over the last 4 years

Nice find! We had an Overlander for many years. We thought it was the perfect size. I think you will really like it.

Can anyone tell me what width awning you have on your 26' Overlander (vintage style not Zipdee)? And I'm assuming most are 9' depth right? I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on an awning but there are so many questions.

Congratulations and shrewd buy! What are you waiting for!? Hook it up and head south where it's warm because it looks ready to go!

Got the 12v going. (too embarrassing to say what I found). We got our new awning from VTS. Can't wait to try it out. I know it's going to look incredible. I'm in the process of replacing latches on both the lower storage cabinets and the overhead bins. Now it's on to more stuff. How do you lubricate the sliding wood parts in your vintage AS? You know, drawers, gaucho, bin supports, etc.? I don't care for the old soap trick my mom used to use in the 50's. There's got to be a better way.

We used the leftover wax from our preserves canning. I'm sure a quick google search, or checking Woodcrafter's site will lead to some specific products.

Congrats on the progress!

C'mon, please share the Voltage mystery. It will help others! :

Regarding the 12v problem, let's just say you should always check to make sure that all wires and plugs are connected. Especially the one coming off of your converter to the battery. Duh!

I did pick up some beeswax yesterday. My question on it is does it attract mice? Checking on the internet, it appears that maybe it does. I don't know if it would be enough to attract them stinkin rodents but so far we have been very fortunate to not have a problem and I really want to keep it that way.

Gregsch,

You're a cabinet guy right? What would be your suggestions on some retouch and clean up on the wood in the '66 Overlander International? It's mahogany right?
