    Solar panel hook up to battery

    I have a small solar panel to hook up to my 2 batteries. I have conflicting ways to hook up. Do the clips from the panel hook to one battery or the positive on one battery and the negative on the other or does it matter. Thanks

    Route Planner Book-Not App

    For traveling non freeway routes I use the Motor Carrier's map book. Any road a semi can go on is marked in orange. If they can go-I can go. Purchase on Amazon or any truck stop.

    Trailer brakes disconnecting

    I have filed a complaint with the National Hwy. Traffic Safety Commission. This is a problem with General Motor's trucks starting in 2009. The problem is NOT in the trailer. GM has a CYA bulletin. The govt has opened a case on this. The majority of people do not know you have no brakes when...

    What are these hoses for? 33RETS

    Have a 2017 Bighorn 3160. We have been lucky and never had to winterize an RV for 26 years. It is coming soon. I cannot see the low point drains anywhere. I have a feeling they were never put through the bottom cover. Can anyone give me a close idea where the drains are?

    When mine did that I found that when turning the Anderson valve to city, go past city and then turn back. Works without spending money.

    Trailer brakes disconnecting

    I filed a complaint with the National Highway Traffic Safety Commission today about GM vehicles getting the Check Trailer Wiring prompt. 1-888-327-4236 After spending almost $900 I have found this problem is in the truck. I feel someone is going to get hurt of killed when we lose our brakes.

    Trailer brakes disconnecting

    I hope this gets to everyone. I started having the check trailer wiring as we started cross country. Spent a fortune trying to get it fixed. There is a GM bulletin PITT5311F stating GM vehicles from2014 to 2020 need a 7 prong plug on the trailer made by Pollak. This makes NO sense since the...

    Trailer brakes disconnecting

    Lots of info here BUT here is what was wrong with my Bighorn. Two things. One of the brake wires was rubbing on the frame and there was a bare spot. This was from the factory. My tech took out about 18 inches of wire to shorten the length. Also they found a connector from the factory that...
