    Generator Auto Start?

    A friend of mine has a motorhome with the auto start feature, but I believe it only kicks the gen on in the event of loss of power from the pedestal.

    Anyone having problems mounting 16" Sailuns to 16" stock wheels

    The reason I'm asking is because a friend wanted some Sailuns but was talked into ordering 14 ply Hercules tires equivalent to the Sailuns by our local tire store. They actually looked identical, other than the name. After bringing in the rig for install, they could not get the 14 ply Hercules...

    Roof repair being suggested

    Even if it does need all the dicor sealant replaced its only 3 or 4 tubes of self leveling sealant @ $10 or so per tube, and about 3 to 4 hrs labor. The price they are quoting is ridiculous.

    King Tailgater not picking up all available satellites in new Big Country

    I recall reading about this before and the solution was changing out the splitters with a higher quality splitter, but not amplified. The factory splitters were interfering with the signal.

    Good grief, is this a good idea?

    A marketing ploy explicitly targeting the naïve !

    Slide Out Bulb Seal Melting

    I had the same issue on my Sundance and ordered the replacements on amazon. Apparently it's just another result of inferior products made on the cheap for the RV industry. Everything in my RV seems to be deteriorating at record speed. My couch/loveseat/air bed is fabric and every sewn seem is...

    Texas Landmark Dealers

    Re: No Landmarks ???? We just visited Explorer USA near Canton, Tx and the salesman there said they will no longer carry any Heartland products in the future. They still had a few Prowlers and a Big Horn on the lot. His take was that Heartland has become difficult to deal with and would not...

    Need help with Dometic 2652 fridge

    Thanks for the suggestions Bill, I tried each to no avail. Just for kicks with the unit off I punched the propane button on the eyebrow off and on about 10 times vigorously and then hit the auto on button and it went to electric. At that point I felt sure the propane switch/circuit board was...

    Need help with Dometic 2652 fridge

    As long as I can remember I've had the issue of my fridge automatically switching to propane, even though 110v was present. So, according to the Dometic manual if I have 110v present at the circuit board, from the plug, but not transferring power over to the heater rod with the auto button in...

    TPMS and rubber valve stems...

    I wonder if they effect the wheel balance ? It would be interesting to see the difference with and without !

    two black tanks

    I think I recall someone saying that in some instances the bathroom sink drains into the black tank. If that's the case there may not be a need for a gray tank in a half bath.

    Salesmen ??

    Re: Salesmen suck What the OP probably meant, or should have said, is that some salesman suck. And yes some are quite annoying when they act like they know it all and keep giving their pitch instead of listening to the customer. There is a difference in a professional and someone posing as...

    Black Water Flush causes water to pour out of the bottom of RV

    My Sundance did not have an access panel. I removed the shower water valves and it was right beside the other water lines. It was difficult to get to with such a small area but I bypassed it so I no longer have to worry about it. I know technically you should have one but the chance of it ever...

    Elkridge e22

    I think that will be the winterization hose from your water pump to use for drawing antifreeze out of the gallon bottle and pumping it to your faucets. It works like this. After you bypass your water heater, then you open the valve to the hose (with open end) and insert it into the jug of...
