Surf diagnostic says overcurrent

[outkastmunkey]

I am going on 3rd set of rams and second taps 3 brain they put the wedges on mine with the second set of rams and it worked for the whole summer. When I took in to get winterized they said the rams that had worked all summer were on the recall and replaced now it doesn't work again [emoji15]. So just surfing listed till they can get the boat in to fix.

Well, got my new rams installed. Still having issues of not being able to surf left. No codes this time. I did the test and put the two finger pressure on the plate and sure enough it binded up. Then checked for codes and had the overcurrent on right plate. Very disappointed not being able to take advantage of my surf tabs over this long weekend. Will have to check with dealer to see what my next step is. I do have a video but not sure how to post that.

It's frustrating hopefully your dealership is close and can get it t fixed for you. I am hoping mine is up and running by Wednesday

You can always go this route.

Hate to spend anymore money but please explain that mod a little more. How much would that cost and what is involved. I don’t want to spend my summer taking boat to dealer after each trip out.

Its a little different surf system that we have experimented with....Actuators are actuators so you could always have that issue, that isnt taps 3 but I really like the few projects we have done thus far with some different systems

Let's take a 15 AVX from an ASR and play with it on some RZX2 and 3s. May not be dead tech at the end of the day

It may be but its still the best wave on the lake...

I could see how you would have that opinion if you haven’t had much time in dialed taps 3 stuff.... it makes sense why you were so head over heels in love over the zx5 wave as well

So you have talked GSA into just selling the tabs so you can use the existing controller system in boat?

We use the Gsa controller.... given the power supplied to the actuators are different.

Can you explain that a bit more? The power supplied should be the same. Maybe they use a 2” stroke actuator. In that case the run time would be different, but I would think that would be easy to adjust in tige’s programming.

While both systems run on 12v systems, the power supplied and cutoffs are drastically different. Im not an electrical engineer but I know that amperage is the key variable here that is different between the 2. For example, in Tiges recent update, they changed amperage rates in the software for the newer swivel system. Now whether thats cutoff points or actual amperage supplied I would have to get clarification. I will say that its a noticeable difference. If my mind serves me right the system went from 20A to 25A now. While the voltage has remain unchanged, the amperage (flow) has been bumped up or the limit increased. I believe that you would notice this most as the actuator encounters more load.

Both systems run with different actuator angles (PSI Load). Tige used to be straight up and down, now they are at an angle with swivels. Both systems have significantly different loads. As for Gsa, thats a whole separate deal given they are running actuators on a flat plane that nearly bump the limit set by Lenco. Difference is the software which control/time/amperage at given intervals. I think GSA has this down to a perfect science, given they had to dial in the exact amount of load that their system was inducing via actuator angle and make sure that the power side of things was correct for consistent and accurate deployment and retraction. Im not saying Tige didnt do this, im just saying I think GSA does it better.

As for actuator type... both are using the 101XDS's.

Again, I know my knowledge of the power side of things is not great im sure my explanation is not perfect or the lingo is incorrect. But I am pretty confident in the bare nuts and bolts. That is until someone corrects me

LOL - The 5 is a different league...I still wake up thinking about that sucker... I like taps 3 - but the AVX will always hold a special place in my heart...
