Need some help with Harman XXV "hose clamp fix" for vibration

jimf · Dec 23, 2013

My Harman XXV has started to vibrate and I want to take a shot at applying the factory recommended "hose clamp fix" before I contact my dealer. Looking back on the posts regarding this, I really can't tell where the clamp should be situated. Does anyone have a diagram, pictures or any descriptive information that might help me? I'm assuming it's applied on the combustion blower somehow? Thanks!

Surprised no one got back to you on this ... Not a Harman owner so can't help but hoping someone will chime in.

I guess with the Holidays and this being prime vacation time, folks are pretty busy....but.....if any XXV owners or Harman tech's could help me out, that would be fantastic (I'm getting a bit tired of listening to this thing rattle!) :eek:

Search-combustion motor vibration,stops when minor pressure applied-in these threads.But first you need to find out which blower causing problem.Would cut ant paste link but do not know how,just a car mechanic.

The tin shields in back of the stove usually are the cause when vibration gets strong enough. I would push against each shield trying to isolate which one is vibrating then sometimes loosening the screws and retightening works or reposition the metal shield.

I am not familiar with this problem....sorry. Figured I would reply to keep the post going for you. Merry Christmas.

Here's the thread, it contains a lot of information except exactly where the hose clamp should be placed (unless I missed it). Page 3, post #59 explains in detail how this is a Harman factory authorized "fix".

2006 was still chain drive, so might not be relevant unless you have an older stove.
