Very informative thanks. Can I put a bigger amp battery, same voltage as a replacement.. if it physically fits??? Thanks.

[@FencerFixerRepairLLCKansasCity]

Yes because 6v is 6v. It won't make the unit and stronger it just might run a couple more days longer before it runs down the battery if you go a more than a week or two without much sunlight.

@@FencerFixerRepairLLCKansasCity thank you. From Tasmania

[@tylertakes2241]

I have a newer style of S17 and the large transformer has gone bad. Any word or where a guy can get a replacement transformer.

[@SemperFi4]

Which is cheaper to buy parts for the s17 or to buy a new/used one??

[@FencerFixerRepairLLCKansasCity]

To buy parts to fix the older one, such we do every year. You can't buy a new S17 unit, it's discontinued and the S20 took it's place and cost around $265 +/- All the parts are still available for it

@@FencerFixerRepairLLCKansasCity What's the turn around time to ship to Idaho

[@FencerFixerRepairLLCKansasCity]

@@SemperFi4 It'll take 2-4 days to get here a 1-3 weeks to take a look at it and 2-4 days to get it back to you.

[@robbo9216]

My unit drops in and out light flashes more than a 2nd any ideas?

[@FencerFixerRepairLLCKansasCity]

it's probably circuit board related. We might be able to fix the board inside if you want to send the board here, worse case we have to get you a new board to install back into your unit.

Hi.

[@FencerFixerRepairLLCKansasCity]

Hello

[@vicbushbashing8403]

mine reads 1.17v battery diconnected testing the solar panel it reads 7.9v how much do they normally read dirict from the solar panel

[@FencerFixerRepairLLCKansasCity]

At the solar panel directly and testing it outside, it should be around 10-11 volts dc. If it's only reading 7.9 volts at the panel, then once you plug the panel back in, it'll likely drop down to around 3-5 volts at the battery leads. You might take things outside and retest the battery leads and the panel with the unit turned off and just see if things change.

[@pdrhound]

Is there still parts for a s17 available? Prices?

[@FencerFixerRepairLLCKansasCity]

Yes I believe so the parts are still made today. They make the S22 board today vs the S17 board, which makes it stronger, $125, but we can typically fix the boards vs replacing the whole board. The comparable unit to this unit is the S20 which sells for $250-$265. Solar panels don't go bad that often, and they're kind of expensive at around $100 +/- but I usually retrofit a different solar panel into it if it goes bad, but I have to have that here to do it. If the board ever goes out, send me just the board by itself.

[@kentmadin9408]

what if the light is solid red regardless of the off/on position of the switch?

[@FencerFixerRepairLLCKansasCity]

Something is definitely wrong with the board inside. That fault isn't too common to happen. One only personally seen it a small handful of times and that hasn't happened in a few years.

[@kentmadin9408]

@@FencerFixerRepairLLCKansasCity actually, I unplugged the battery, plugged it in again, and it works fine. Go figure

[@FencerFixerRepairLLCKansasCity]

@@kentmadin9408 That's a weird one for sure lol. Electronics for ya I guess

[@seneca8147]

great channel, but cant watch it. the noise of that ticking clock in the background is annoying.

[@FencerFixerRepairLLCKansasCity]

That's not a clock in the background, that's an electric fence charger. We're a repair shop that works on electric fence chargers, and most of them click, some louder than others.
