Working on the Oasis system

I posted a few days ago that Carl tried resetting the Oasis system by pulling the 12V power (https://journeyinamazinggrace.blogspot.com/2026/06/some-work-around-rig.html) -- unfortunately, that didn't fix the electric water heater. We were using the diesel burner for hot water, but it was pretty smelly when it ran. Carl had a replacement burner nozzle and he decided to replace that to see if it may reduce the diesel smell...

While he was inside the Oasis box, Carl looked at the connections for the electric hot water system. He noticed that wires going into the relay appeared to be melted...

He took a picture of the information about the relay and decided that ordering a new one and replacing it might be a good idea.


So thankful that Amazon has a lot of these parts and that we can get delivery in our campground!

And... the replacement nozzle *has* reduced the diesel smell produced by the burner -- win!
