    Black tank 'burp'

    I just emptied my black yesterday when it burped. This is what I always do. However, it is still burping. Any ideas on why?

    Cell Phone

    Avoid AT&T I do know that we have had lousy coverage with AT&T. While in San Jose (east side) we were standing directly under one of their billboards with no service! I am switching to Verizon in October bases on what others have recommended.

    Fresh Water Tank Cleaning from RV Travel

    I agree that you don't need to let it sit for 12 hours. Also, there is no need to initially drain all the water unless it has been in there for a long time. Just add the bleach solution and fill the tank.

    LP Detector/12 volt lamps

    Problem solved OK. Steve figured it out. Last night we had a power surge which caused the two 12 volt bulbs in the LR lamp to burn out which also blew the fuse in the circuit box labeled 'rear ac.' The two good bulbs were feeding the false reading to the LP sensor and setting the alarm off...
