service

I have two Sola 2500 lights that aren't charging properly. I know the charger is being detected by the light because when I plug them in I get the series of red blinking lights that indicate the light is charging. Only issue is that the lights aren't charging. I plugged one in overnight after a...

I am looking to service 1st and 2nd stage(DST & XTX 50). Do you think a torque wrench will be needed? I read mixed answers so far. What do you think? (I find a Norbar truetorque around 140€.) Thanks.

Because of frequent moves, I have no relationship with a LDS. I used to send my regs to ScubaToys in Dallas for annual inspection / servicing, but the sparse reviews on Yelp leave me wondering if they are still a good option. (I realize there are many issues with Yelp; it's a datapoint.)...

Well this is the worst possible time. I just finished my Rescue Diver course, but I couldn't do the last day of dives with my own gear so I used gear from the school. I noticed after the previous dive that the knurled scubapro-specific nut was loosening from the nut beside it, and was leaking...

Hi all , does anyone have a service / repair manual for a cressi Galaxy R 2nd stage? I could find one for the 1st stage (T10SC) and Octopus (XS Compact), but not this main 2nd stage.

Hi! I'm new to diving and this forum. I'm sorry if this question has already been answered, I could find out. So; 2 years ago I got a new set of Aqualung Helix Pro regulators. I have not used this on land or in water, and have been storing them in a dry environment. The manual says service is...

Background Hey there all. I've been diving for a bit over a year now and got my sidemount certification. I decided to buy a set of used Xstreams in good condition, because a friend (who has been servicing his own Poseidons for over a decade) convinced me that servicing is pretty straight...

Hi, One of my YS-D2 has broken bulb. By the time I had money to get it repaired Sea and Sea decided not to support this "old" model. So I am stuck with 700$ paper weight. Is there anyone who could fix this for me? Or is it worth any money for parts? I must add, this is the reason I will never...

Hi Everyone, I recently purchased this regulator second hand and I'm having trouble identifying the model for purchasing a rebuild kit. I think it might be a Delta 3? If anyone could help me identify the model and possibly even point me in the direction of a rebuild kit I would be incredibly...

I worked at LDS a few years back and was certified through a manufacture for their gear. I want to start servicing gear again but what insurance is required for me to have? I assume some sort of liability insurance? I know dive instructors have insurance but what about service repair...

I'm trying to see if I can give an old oceanic delta 2 regulator a second lease of life. I took the regulator apart and cleaned everything (soapy water followed by vinegar for the metalic parts that needed it). I want to know if the regulator is salvageable/safe to use considering the state of...

Seems its recommended by Manufacturers to have the Underwater housing serviced every 2 years. Who really does it? Had you had problems after service?

Is it normal for some of the lube to pass the piston into the swivel? I’ve never packed an Environmental chamber but mine looked lite on lube. Also noticed some clear lube on the outside of the reg. I was at my LDS looking for a trim ring to replace the environmental band, the tech showed me a...

Hello everyone. First off all sorry if that’s a repeat, so feel free to point me to the right thread if I’m to blind to find it myself. Because of the corona virus my industry completely shut down and left me out of work. And frankly I don’t see it picking up anytime soon (I’m sound engineer)...

It would be interesting to know how much you pay to have your regulators serviced (primary, secondary and octi).

hi guys, Could anyone share a tutorial or manual taking me through the steps to service myself my Apeks High Profile dump valve? It started leaking last week, despite being water proof for 1+ years. Youtube is generous on videos when it comes to the more recent Apeks low-profile valve, but not...

Question for the DIY out there. Getting ready to install a new service kit. Reading from Atomics technical service procedure below. Those that do service their own Atomic second stage, is this the procedure you follow, adjusting the cracking effort with the spring pad adjuster? Just...

Hello - sorry to bring up a relic (albeit a loveable relic, eh). Hoping people still are diving this wonderful 2nd stage and may provide some wisdom. I've used this quarantine (here in Manila) to finally teach myself to overhaul my MK11/G250 rigs. It was super easy. My question is related...
