    Sewer Smell at Front A/C

    Who ever installed your front A/C should have sealed the return area from the attic. The attic needs to be sealed off from the living area completely. Before installing the A/C unit, the installer should have installed sheathing to block off the attic and sealed it with caulk and/or foil...

    AC electrical problem

    I have no experience running 2 generators in parallel, but I am guessing the7 will produce 220 volts when running together. When adapted down to 30 amp service, you are changing the service required for your coach from 50 amp 220 volts to 30 amp 110 volts. Just a guess, I don't know enough...

    a/c issues

    I would monitor the incoming voltage. There may be excessive voltage drop causing a high amp draw, thus tripping the breaker. Low voltage will kill any electric motor.

    Big trip tomorrow, Big Problem???

    The sag in my mind is NOT acceptable!! You will loose the tank if you continue to travel with water on board. The strap idea used on these units is p**s poor at best. There should be a piece of sheet good under the tank to spread out the load, minimum. My tank almost fell out from the strap...

    SOLVED: Extreme condensation inside our bedroom from the AC

    Re: Extreme condensation inside our bedroom from the AC Check the 4 mounting bolts. On ours, when it leaked inside, the bolts were over-tightened. The pan was deformed enough to cause a low spot, the water collected there and overflowed into the return area and dripped on the bed. I loosened...

    a/c stopped working

    Pull the shroud on top, check for wasp's nest on the fan, shaft, and condenser. The hum could be the compressor running and the fan stuck from a wasp's nest.

    Shocking....

    The ground wires could be for the convertor, look on the convertor, there is a ground lug for a ground wire.

    Generator exhaust

    If it had too much oil in the crank case, it would flood the cylinders and would burn in the process. Oil does not burn efficiently, you will get oil residue in the exhaust. It will smoke for some time after the problem has been corrected ( draining the excess oil ). The only thing you can...

    Taming the air conditioner?

    It may only be a week old to you, it has sat somewhere for awhile, and with spring, wasp are very active and build a sizable nest to cause a vibration, in a day.

    Taming the air conditioner?

    You need to have the cover removed from the unit outside and look for anything that may be on the fan, motor shaft, etc.. If it is really vibrating that much, you will find a wasp's nest on it some where. Make sure you reach in and check the condenser side of the fan where you can not see it...

    Charging Battery on my 2011 Edge M192

    The maintainer will work and is a good option. If you leave the battery cables hooked up, it will not keep up with the draw from the items you can not turn off: clocks, LP detedtor, etc..

    Help! My Fresh Water Tank Doesn't Like Water!

    I have installed a Tee fitting in the city water line and one in the supply line from the tank to the pump. Connected the 2 together with a valve in the middle. Now I can fill the fresh water tank from the city water connection through my whole house filter, with out any issues.

    Charging Battery on my 2011 Edge M192

    Leaving it plugged in is the best and easiest way to maintain the batteries. If you can't plug it in, just disconnect the negative cable from the battery or use a disconnect switch to turn it off. The LP detector is the culprit for draining the battery. It is one device you can not shut off.

    Refrigerator and Furnace fan won't come on

    Check your battery voltage, it could be low. If the convertor blew a fuse or breaker, it would not be charging the battery. The lights may seem to work, but there may not be enough amperage left to run anything more than a light bulb.

    Dometic Heat Pump Vibration

    Make sure you check with your hand on the front of the fan that faces the condenser, you can't see it, but you can feel for it. That seems to be the place they always seem to find to build a nest.

    Help, obviously something electrical...

    Sounds more like one leg down in the 50 amp service, either the supply or the cord to the breaker box in the coach. Also, were you using an adaptor to plug into 30 amp service??

    ST or LT Tires?

    This pretty much goes with my experience as well. When my ST trailer tire exploded and took out the car next to me on the interstate and the side of our trailer, I went straight to a tire dealer and bought 5 new 10 ply Hankook LT tires. Th LT's weigh over double of the ST tires that came off...

    Sewer Smell at Front A/C

    Remove the inside trim, and look up in the cavity and see if it is sealed off from the attic. If it is not, the whole area is the return for the A/C. It will draw air from the attic, the attic will pull air in from the attic vent AND the sewer vents. The sewer vents are not sealed from the...

    Low Water Pressure/Faucet Pressure OK

    Are you using a regulator?? If you are, remove it. The cheap ones will restrict flow regardless of inlet pressure. I have a adjustable regulator that I use when needed. If the park pressure is below 60 psi, I don't use a regulator at all.

    ATF: Landmark - Sewerage smell

    Check under the bath and kitchen sink when you first turn the fans on. There is a sewer vent valve located in both locations. One of the valves could be bad, there are supposed to be one way valves, let air in, not out.

    electrical problem

    Most likely dropped one leg of the 50 amp. Had this happen to me. If you have a 30 amp to 50 amp dog bone that will let you plug into a 30 amp plug, us it to verify it is not your rig. You will only get 30 amp total, but every thing should work.

    Generator in Landmark Augusta

    I am installing a 4K Onan in our Landmark, it is also gasoline powered. I am going to use a 6 gallon boat tank on ours, carried in the truck and set on the ground when used. For the longer stays, like at a race, I have a custom built 24 gallon tank mounted in the bed of my truck to run it.
