    Leaky Fresh Water Tank/Valve

    The warranty is well past...trailer is a 2009. Has anybody tried a plastic welding kit? I've seen one that seems to work on polyethylene. Here is a link: https://www.princessauto.com/en/detail/plastic-welding-kit/A-p8699134e I've also come across the idea of having new fittings installed...

    Leaky Fresh Water Tank/Valve

    I have leak! This is a photo of the out line to the low drain. Water drips out where the white ring meets the tank. Not sure how to fix. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    FIXED: Fan Noise from Converter (replaced unit)

    Thanks again! I understand where the ground wire goes on the RV (left side buss bar), but how/where do I connect the other end, the end that connects to the replacement unit? There is no obvious attachment point.

    FIXED: Fan Noise from Converter (replaced unit)

    Thanks for your reply and I appreciate your patience. The old converter green ground wire was connected to the buss bar on the lower left as you guessed. It is still unclear to me how to ground the new unit if it did not come with a ground wire included/attached. Also, I've re-read the...

    FIXED: Fan Noise from Converter (replaced unit)

    Hi - Thanks for your replies. I've attached the instructions of the Parallax Power Supply model 7155. The word ground does not appear in the document. How do I ground something that does not have a greeen wire?

    FIXED: Fan Noise from Converter (replaced unit)

    Re: Fan Noise from Converter Ok I have some more information that might be helpful. The previous owner has reported that when she plugged in a hairdryer some time ago, she blew some fuses, after which, one circuit breaker kept popping. She had it replaced by her "electrician" friend who also...

    FIXED: Fan Noise from Converter (replaced unit)

    Re: Fan Noise from Converter We are the third owner so I'm not sure. How could I investigate this for myself? Is a power loop bad? I've read on another site that the fan may simply be running due to heat build up in the unit. It was suggested that I vacuum out any dust or pet hair.

    FIXED: Fan Noise from Converter (replaced unit)

    Re: Fan Noise from Converter The first night we owned it, we had to park it at the local park because I could not get it into the driveway without grounding out. That evening we went to check on it. It was not plugged in. I went inside and noticed the fan noise coming out from the...

    FIXED: Fan Noise from Converter (replaced unit)

    I am a brand new owner of a 2009 North Trail 21FBS. It is our first rv. There is a fan going continuously from the converter when the trailer is connected to the battery. The first night after we took possession, the only way I could shut the fan off, was to disconnect the battery. Even...
