    Furnace will not quit

    The only way to stop the furnace from running is to pull the 20 amp fuse. We have the remote control thermostat put new batteries in to see if that would help, no luck. Even with the fuse pulled the red and green power lights stay on. Any ideas on where to start, it is getting hot in here.

    Excellent place, more like a resort. Trailer Life Directory gave it all 10's and rightly so. Excellent high priced area, several big named actors have homes in the area plus other rich people. Lots to do all around the area and Mackinaw Island is only about 35 miles away plus the boat trip...

    Day-Night Shades

    It finally got cool enough to open the windows on our coach for about two hours while camping on Lake Erie. The problem is we could not keep the shades all the way up. We would put one up go over to another window to raise that one and the first one would start creeping down. This went on for...
