WFC 65 Amp Converter/Charger Replaced with Progressive Dynamics

Well after some cold weather, broken foot, and snow I finally have the Progressive Dynamics PD9260CV installed and closed back up.

The converter is in the front storage area behind this cover:


The old Converter - the new one was installed in the same location:


Now I thought the old unit was hard wired into the electrical panel - put it is just plugged into the back:





So it was a pretty easy install - 3 wires from the 12volt/ground side, and plugged into the back of the power panel. Took about 1 1/2 hours, but that was having to limp back-forth with crutches.

Awesome job!
The pd unit is a much better unit.
Did yours come with the charge wizard?

It was an extra $20 but bought the unit online during a special and paid 150 with no shipping charge. So together it was a good deal

You will see real fast how much better the PD is over the WFCO. I just picked our FL up this morning and brought it home. I put mine in the same place also.
