    Slide wall crack developing above window

    Re: Something new . . . I dont believe that is a crack. It looks like the hole was cut too big for the window, and they used caulk to fill the gap. What I believe we are seeing, is the caulk seperating from the edge of the opening in the fiberglass.

    "Paint"? coming off of Wheels

    They are Powder Coated clear to keep them from tarnishing and corroding. That is corrosion that you are seeing. The powder coat has been nicked and allowed water to get underneath it, allowing the wheel to corrode.

    Generator for my fridge

    Most refridgerators will pull less than 700 watts, our big fridge in our kitchen pulls 630 watts. You can purchase a 750-1000 watt invertor for less than $50 and would be easier to rig up for travel than trying to run a generator.

    Rear kitchen drawer and cabinet issues

    Rear kitchens are known for rough riding, every bump is magnified from being to far behind the suspension. This is the one reason I won't own one, the other is for weight distribution, kitchens are very heavy by the time they are equipped and stocked.

    Exhaust smell - only when towing

    Also, is your exhaust coming out straight out from the bumper or out the side?? If it is exiting straight out, it is in the low pressure area between the TV and trailer. Like said above, it could be entering the cabin vents at the rear of the vehicle. Running fresh air into the cabin will...

    3260EL Electrical Problem - Furnace - Light Switch and TV - Need your thoughts please

    Unfortunately, if it is a nest keeping the blower from spinning, you will have to remove the furnace and disassemble it to remove the nest.

    3260EL Electrical Problem - Furnace - Light Switch and TV - Need your thoughts please

    If the wasp built it's nest near the blower wheel, it would keep it from spinning. If it isn't spinning and blowing air, the sail switch would not indicate air flow telling the computer to start the igniter.

    3260EL Electrical Problem - Furnace - Light Switch and TV - Need your thoughts please

    The problem with the furnace is unrelated to the other issues, the A/C and fan work, the thermostat gets its power from the furnace to operate. The furnace will most likely have a wasp nest in it, not letting the blower spool up.

    Splendide Dryer burnt wires

    Is there any air movement from the vents? If not, it is froze up. Turn it to fan only until you get air movement. Run the fan on high to prevent it in the future.

    Only bleed from the TOP bleeder!! DO NOT try to use the bottom one. These calipers are used on both sides, thus flipping them to get proper orientation. Air rises to the top, you will get very little, if any air out of the bottm.
