    On some units, there is a thermistor with 2 wires on it that clips on a tube on the end of the evaporator about midway, it could've come loose. Also, if you are in a high humidity area and have the fan on low, it can/cause it to freeze up. Don't open the rig up in the morning, then close it up...

    Old Bighorn Hydraulic Bedroom Slide Tilt Adjustment

    I would look for another cause for the crack, possibly broken or poor welds in the frame. Measure the crack setting on the jacks and on the truck, compare the measurements, you might find that the frame flexing/moving is the cause.

    Orange water?

    Iron Algae. Common in water systems that are stagnant for a period of time. I see it a lot in vacation homes around my area. Sanitizing the water system, including the tank and water heater usually clears it up.

    The TPMS system in the Ram trucks need the truck to be driven a short distance to get accurate readings after a cycle of the ignition. You can not simply turn the key on and get an accurate reading.

    help please

    On the A/C dripping water, it could be a bad install, but more likely it is condensation collecting on the inside cover. If you are in a very high humidity climate and have the windows open a lot when you think you don't need the A/C, this is a common occurrence when the A/C is turned back on.

    Matching Countertop extension

    I went to my local Corian dealer and they made a whole counter top to fit the island I made for our Landmark. They matched the color and edge perfectly. Our rig is an 06, I had the counter top made last year.

    Trailer Brake Question

    Has any one greased them with a grease through the hub cap?? Could have brakes full of grease. Have they been properly adjusted??
  26. H

    Just to make sure.

    Turn on the pump and open EVERY faucet until it runs clear and no air. You run it clear to remove any anti-freeze from winterizing. It is recommended to sanitize your fresh water system after winterizing for the first use.

    Charge line from truck goes to the battery. The charge line from the convertor goes to the battery. The power wire from the fuse panel goes to the battery. Sensing a pattern yet? When all these wires are connected at the battery, you have a completed circuit. When disconnected, no circuit.
