    Question for construction workers

    Does anyone work construction and pulls a fifth wheel camper with a 60 inch Knack job site box or a 60 inch tool chest of another brand? I know they are all about the same size. I pull my Landmark Newport with a 2017 Ram 3500 with a full size bed and I want to put this box in the bed to store...

    2017 landmark newport 365 bumper/platform

    I didn't have a clue that a receiver hitch was even available for fifth wheels. I think I found 1 that would work and it looks like it would be low enough to be below the ladder. I appreciate you mentioning that.

    2017 landmark newport 365 bumper/platform

    Our fifth wheel didn't come with a actual bumper and at the time of purchase we didn't think it would be a issue but we have accumulated so much stuff that it would be really nice to have a bumper to attach a bike carrier or a platform. I'm just curious if anyone has had any ideas on this or has...

    Power loss to suburban sf-42q furnace 2017 landmark newport

    So I finally got to the ac that is on the thermostat with the furnace and took it apart only to find a new issue. Seems that the hard start for the start run capacitor has crapped out and may have possibly damaged the board. I will save that project for another day. I installed the new board...

    Power loss to suburban sf-42q furnace 2017 landmark newport

    I took photos of everything and even cut them so there was a small piece of the furnace wire attached to the factory wire nut that was crimped. I'm positive that they are spliced the way they should be but I am not a 100% sure that I didn't short one out trying to get them taped before stuffing...

    Power loss to suburban sf-42q furnace 2017 landmark newport

    I cut the 4 wires that supply the furnace. Checked the sail switch and high limit switch. Cleaned the burner and the gas nozzle and lightly cleaned the ignition strike with wool. Assembled the furnace back into the camper and spliced all the wiring back like I found it. Now I have no 12v supply...

    Power loss to suburban sf-42q furnace 2017 landmark newport

    I have had issues last winter with the furnace cycling off and not cycling back on intermittently. This winter started that way but got to a point to where it would only run if you turned the thermostat off and back on again. Then a few days ago it would attempt to run but only for a minute. I...

    Power loss

    All 120v power not associated with the power management system came on first. The appliances and receptacles governed by the power management system came on a few minutes later. It must have a reset cycle because the display showed only 7 volts on L2 for a few minutes then it came online at 120v.

    Power loss

    I checked the power again at the pedistol and its still good. Bought a data cable meter with remote and checked the data cable for continuity and it passed. Checked all wiring in the breaker box and for the power management system and it was good. Checked voltage going in the transfer switch...

    Power loss

    I removed the display from the wall and unplugged the data wire from it and the other end from the board in the breaker box. Bought a tester from Lowe's and checked it for continuity because one of the connectors on it went out before and we had power loss last summer. It checked out good. The...

    Power loss

    the display reads L1: 0 volts L2: 0 volts no service error. I checked the pedistol and have power there. I have power coming in the transfer switch but I honestly dont know much about it to say whether or not it is the problem.

    Power loss

    i turned all the breakers off and waited a few minutes then turned them on again. Last time we had a problem like this it was the display wire from the monitor to the board hidden behind the breaker panel. I even took the top off the transfer switch and manually engaged the contacts and still...

    Hot water doesn't last long

    Recently traveled to the tristate area of Pennsylvania/Ohio/West Virginia for work. Our water heater has worked fairly well until we arrived here. The water is so cold it saturates the tank and cuts our shower time in half. This may not be a task everyone can do themselves but it was a idea that...

I pulled inspection hatch in the shower and its dry around the shower valve and pex fittings. I do have a washing machine and dryer installed and I checked the washer drain line...
