took lower rod off of #1 and replaced snapped one on #2
went out and worked fine (got a wedding band)
- next morning was going to change the batteries - saw rust leaking around gasket
Oh No ! - turned on - dead - it leaked too and batteries exploded - I did not leave either in
direct sun light - but maybe just being in the heat for the ride and then hitting the cold water did it
im always careful when changing batteries and clean the gasket but it don't take much when you
reassemble the back door if the gasket becomes slightly out of line to leak - now I got to send
2 in and hope they can save them
