Checked clanking sound on right side wheels. Found ALL THREE brake magnets on right side broken off arm. What the heck could have caused this.

I was peering into the hole of a new Dometic 320 toilet with the flapper open (at an RV show), when I noticed the fulcrum of the foot pedal mounting mechanism is visible on the inside of the toilet, on both sides. It looks to me like this area would be a problem for toilet paper, or other...

Re: Automatic Transfer Switch intermittent chatter Problem fixed! As I was checking connections in the ATS, I determined the clicking was not coming from the transfer switch at all. It was coming from the power converter near by. When they put the converter in, the battery leads to the...

We have a Progressive Dynamics Model PD52DCS ATS in our 2012 Cyclone 3612. It has begun to chatter intermittently while on shore power. At the moment it is not making a sound, but will probably begin to chatter later. Is it going bad? It is only two years old.

Thanks for the input. Were you running 2 AC's to cool the garage, or 2 RV AC's to cool the RV. My wife is having a big party, and we want to put up a few people in our Fifth Wheel so we want to run the RV AC's inside our storage building.

Is it OK to run air conditioners inside an enclosed garage? Garage is well ventilated, windows on both sides. Or is there some sort of safety risk here. Thanks, Buzz

Does anyone hauling a heavy fifth wheel use adjustable air springs on their truck? Do you like them? Do they improve ride, handling, tire wear, etc.

Thanks for the input. I have jiggled the slip on connectors, and still no audio to outside or garage speakers. All slip-on connectors appear to be connected properly. I think I will contact the factory to get replacement switches. I had a momentary switch for the front landing gear go bad...

We have two switches for our audio system, one turns inside speakers on or off, the other switches to outside speakers or garage speakers, or nether. They have both worked for the past 3 years, but now the switch for garage or outside has stopped working. The connection to the switches appear...

Thans, will do that.

We recently replaced our power converter after a mishap (catastrophe may be more appropriate description) where we plugged into an incorrectly wired campground pedestal. The new converter make a noticeable humming noise. Is this normal? Or is this an indication of a problem. At first we...

Yup, next time. Experience is still the best teacher.

We have a 50 amp Surge Guard, but obviously not using it because the pedestal was only 30 amps. This was the first time in four years we have not had 50 amp service. My wife was right - the campground, and I use the term lightly, was a ****-hole.

Thanks to all for good advice. We opened up the basement ear wall and found the ATS. All wires are tight and there is no evidence of arcing. No clunk when shore power connected, but a very noticeable clunk when gen started. Also a little green led light goes on when generator operating. I...

How do you get behind the basement wall?
