    The Trip!

    Yes, Ambi temps were 60-65 in Tenn and AL. Yes, all 4 tires were at 80psi. We got the trailer in 2019, one year old. They were original tires from Heartland. Tire shop showed us that the tires were actually manufactured in 2016.

    Puzzling Backup Camera Issue..

    It appears that it is not removable, that's what threw me off... Wish it was, but alas, stuck with a 4" antenna.

    I was asking about how you changed out the antenna for the monitor... Mine appears solid in the case and only will swivel and bend. It is a Furrion Vision S system.

    @LBR I thought the Furrion S system monitor was not able to be changed out. How did you do it?

    Backup camera wiring- North Tail 24BHS

    Has anyone actually cut through the back of their unit to install the wiring and camera system? If so, what is the gap size (if there is one)? Our Mallard 335 has a cabinet all the way across the top back area. Does anyone else have such a design? Could the back wiring possibly be accessed...

    Puzzling Backup Camera Issue..

    Yep, everything was lit up on the trailer, all running lights. Today, I took the camera out of its cradle, then checked the wiring voltage for the snap connection of the camera...12.8 vds (ok on this one), then checked the voltage of the running lights above the camera, same 12.8 vdc. (phew!)...

    Puzzling Backup Camera Issue..

    I did not hook my truck up to the TT, rather just "touched" the hitch ball to the receiver. Truck and TT were connected with the electrical hookup. Still not working... Going over the TT and recheck the polarity of the wiring, and will cannibalize my center light if the camera needs higher...

    Puzzling Backup Camera Issue..

    Are there any road rules that stipulate 3 marker lights on the back top of the trailer? I could use the two outside lights, and mount the camera where the center light was...and seal off the old camera box.

    Puzzling Backup Camera Issue..

    Ok, so I went to install my Furrion backup camera, checked the output voltage for the lights above the housing and it read 12.8vdc. Installed the camera...blue light came on, so figured all was right in Tinseltown. Went to the front of my truck and trailer (hooked up and running lights on)...

    Slide out lubrication...

    Has anyone used the "Thetford" slide out lubricant in the spray can? Says it can be used for "rails and gears" Can it be used for the slide out pulley system as well? Has anyone used this on pulley systems?
