Thanks Eric,

How much better are the projector headlights over the LED bulbs in the original headlights?  My LED's are much better than the factory bulbs, but still nothing to brag about. 

The only reason I haven't looked into this more seriously before now is I try my best not to drive at night. If the projector bulbs make a decent difference I guess I'll have another project to do on the motorhome.

Thanks for the instructional!

Some fridges have a separate switch inside the fridge to turn the ice maker on or off others just rely on the batch control bail in the ice receiver.
The ice maker units are usually 120 volt operated using the same power that runs the clock mechanism which contains the switching gear for the water valve and motorized tray .
On most ice maker units you can remove the front cover to access the mechanism where you can test and diagnose your problem.
The service manual for your fridge should have a troubleshooting section to help you through the diagnostics.

NORCOLD MODEL 1200LRIM

IS THERE A MICROSWITCH IN THE ICE MAKER CONNECTED TO THE BAIL THAT TURNS THE ICE MAKER OFF, TURNING THE SOLENOID OFF?

IF SO, COULD THIS BE THE PROBLEM?

Bob in my tool box I have several  sizes of pipe plugs to help track down leaks .
Using the pipe plugs I can disconnect air lines from the air tanks and plug the air tank port to narrow down my search to one air circuit at a time .
Some leaks are almost impossible to detect but if your going down over night it should be easier.
To find those smaller leaks I use a product for refrigeration called Big Blue micro leak detector.

The Ford headlights where mounted to a molded plastic mounting plate along with the turn signal, when Beaver designed the front fiberglass cap they molded the cap to accommodate the headlights and turn signals separately.
The turn signals are bolted in from behind the cap just as the would have been mounted to the Ford mounting plate.
The headlights are mounted via their alignment screws you will have to unscrew these screws all the way out to remove the head light assembly.one from the rear and two from the front.
The new headlights come with new alignment screws and the base plate ,you will remove them from the base plate and reuse them

The headlights I used where clear with the LED day time running lights built in but those have a different turn signal shape so I used the original turn signals.

OK Eric,

As usual I am at least a few dozen steps behind you.  Do you happen to have any pictures of your set up.  How you removed and installed the new units.  My turn signals seem to be a different housing from my headlights, not sure if they are one piece or not, but there is a fiberglass bar in the front cap that separates  them.

Adding projection headlights to the back of the new lenses doesn't bother me, but how do the old units come out?

Thanks
