I didn’t pay attention to the listing to see if it had JIS or “Phillips” technically I think it’s supposed to be called “Robertson” bits with this particular one but that is the basic tool I was suggesting. JIS “Phillip” bits have more sharp angles on them whereas the Robertson version are more rounded.

If memory serves anyway. I’m sure Mr Go Ogle or someone that cares more than me could get you the absolute correct answer. Just know the Honda fasteners are JIS and will be less likely to strip if you use a JIS bit on them.

Got! Just ordered one.

Step one: Gather up all the tools and research to remove and install. - In process

Gonna have to put this on hold. My dryer heating element went out, Replacing that will take present over the 500.

Hope your dryer repair is not a PITA like my LG. I had to disassemble panels and electrical connections from top down and remove the drum for access. Glad I took pics of each step to help reassembly. Good luck.

If the weather was right, I absolutely would.. with no shame. I grew up with line dried clothes. Still the best thing for towels and bedding.

I grew up with that too. They always smelled great.

Absolutely a PITA… but the alternative has me removing the exterior door, my bedroom frame, and closet door… then dragging it out of my RV to take it to someone to repair or replace it completely. I will figure it out. Found a couple of somewhat helpful / not helpful videos on YouTube.

Just more stress I do not need. But that is life..

Thank you @NTCPrezJB… this arrived. I had to Google and YouTube how to use it. It is a handy tool!

Dryer heating element arrived also… albeit the wrong one.. so repair guy is coming to take a look and find the right one. He will order and I will install.

Working on clearing a space in my storage unit so I have somewhere indoors to replace the pump. Stay tuned.. hopefully soon.

Not a tool I use often but it is worth every penny paid for it when I do use it.

@KyGal83 have you tried to start your buggy since it quit on the trail?

Thanks for recommending.. prolly not something I will use often either, but definitely something worth having on hand. And a Black Friday deal of $15 shipped!

Right!! I don't miss living in a house, but this way is definitely more challenging sometimes. Otherwise I would have already said F-it and bought a new one.

Not since we push it off the trailer and parked it. I tried it then. When you turn the key, the pump doesn't even prime now... there is no sound.

Yeah most of the Honda screws have blue loctite on them. That tool will help you not strip out those screw heads. As soon as they break loose go back to the standard screwdriver or a ratcheting screwdriver.

Do you hear the relay kick on? Should hear it click on for a few seconds.
