    Roof vents and forward air conditioner

    I would pull the inside trim down and look to see if the attic space is sealed off from the return side of the A/C. The sewer vents are not sealed to the roof, there is an air gap between the pipe and the roof. The vents are just sticking up through the roof with a cap over the top of them...

    Kitchen faucet is loose

    Check under the sink for the hose that goes to the pullout. Look for a big round thing on the hose, this is the weight for the pullout. Remove it and relocate it just above the arch where the hose goes back up to the faucet. Make sure it is on the pull out side, about 1"-2" above the lowest...

    OK a Stupid question

    Your compressor has a cut in pressure of 90 PSI and a cut out pressure of 130 PSI. Like said above, you will need to have the compressor running and building air, to get your tires over 90 PSI.

    Add On Heat Element for Dometic 15K AC Unit

    I have the element in out 15K unit in our Landmark. It will NOT heat the unit. It will help keep it comfortable. You may have to change the controller to turn it on. I paid around $150 for the element, controller, and thermostat. I bought the parts wholesale from a HVAC buddy of mine and...

    Oh to be "8" again!

    A man was sitting on the edge of the bed, watching his wife, who was looking at herself in the mirror. Since her birthday was not far off he asked what she'd like to have for her birthday. 'I'd like to be eight again', she replied, still looking in the mirror . On the morning of her Birthday...

    More Power!

    Purchase a quieter generator. The cost of the inverter and the batteries you will need will cost an arm and a leg. Plus, with the A/C running, your batteries would not last very long, and you may not get them fully charged for the next night.

    Anyone use a CPAP machine while camping ???

    You have the same machine as I do, you can run it on 12 volt DC if you don't use the humidifier. You will have less power consumption than if you run it through a inverter.

    Disney World Campground Question

    My wife and I almost had a divorce getting into our first site ( very tight ), in the daytime. We have a 40' Mt. Rushmore, and we are 57' hooked ready to roll. Started getting set up, one leg down in the 50 amp. Long story short, we had to move to another site, in the dark, not fun.

    '05 Landmark back up lights

    No rewiring needed. Just ran a wire from the pin box to the battery compartment where the switch is located and wired in a relay. No big deal, about 2 hours work and less than $10 in parts.

    ATF: Bighorn - Satelite in LR and BR

    There is a coax that goes to the bedroom TV. You can hook it to the output with a splitter to the living room TV if you only have a single tuner receiver. You may have to play with the source selector to get the right combination to get the signal to the bedroom TV.

    ATF: Bighorn - Satelite in LR and BR

    Can you get the DVR or VCR that is at the living room TV? If so, hook that cable to your receiver, then select the proper source on the selector switch.. That is the way I did it in our Landmark.

    Dodge Owners- Where is the 4wd relay

    No such thing. Only the transfer case shifts, axles stay engaged all the time. No lock outs at all. You can install a Free-Spin kit, new spindles, hubs, lock outs, and axles. You will never realize the cost in fuel economy.

    Fridge leaking water......... ????

    Sound like the fridge is a little colder than 35*. I would check it with a thermometer, the thermostat in the fridge could be off. If you have a temp gun, check different areas in the fridge.

    '05 Landmark back up lights

    A minor annoyance if it makes it simpler to get backed in and set up. Much better than some one jockeying for 30 minutes with yelling and screaming trying to get backed in!

    '05 Landmark back up lights

    X2. In the pin box, you will find a metal 4" x 4" junction box with the pig tail attached to it. Inside you will find a yellow wire with out anything hooked to it. This is the reverse light feed. I ran a wire from it to the switch in the battery compartment. Then I wired in a relay to...

    Light bar over medicine cabinet

    In our landmark, we had the same problem. I removed one of the bulbs and found it to be black. I replace all 4 of them, and wow, we now have light. About 10 times more.

    GFI reset issues

    Sounds like you have dropped a leg in the 50 amp. If you have a 30 amp to 50 amp adaptor, use it to connect to the 30 amp receptacle. If everything statrs working, the 50 amp receptacle has one leg dead in the pedestal. I had forgotten my meter one trip, and this is how I found our problem at...

    So true! I have been working between 6 and 7 days a week for the past 5+ years. Wife schedules a weekend, and I plan my workaround it, and we go. Recently, we found a state park where there is no cell phone reception!! Perfect!! I have to drive a mile and a half to get any signal to call...

    Draining the coroplast

    Also, any water in the fresh water tank will cause a condensation problem in the belly area. Water will collect on the outside of the tank. When I re-installed my fresh tank, the only evidence of water, was under the tank, and no leaks.

    Adventurer Folding Bikes from Camping World

    We have had the 12 speeds for 3 seasons now, and really like them. Though about only getting the 6 speeds, didn't think we really needed the 12's, but are really glad we went them. We frequent a lot of state parks around us, one in particular in Arkansas, Mount Magazine. It is very hilly at...

    Any tips to R/R the cloroplast?

    My rig is parked on gravel as well. I purchased 4 sheets of 7/16", OSB, $6.00 apiece, laid them down under the rig and was able to get 16' x 8' of reasonably flat smooth surface to roll around on my creeper.

    electric coolers

    The coolers will only cool down 40* below ambient temperature. What this means, is if it is 100* outside of the unit, it will cool down to 60* inside.

    Engine Programmer

    If you have the 48re automatic, I wouldn't do it with out first beefing it up. It is the weak link in the drive train for those years equipped with the 5.9. Smarty is probably the best tuner out there for the Cummins engines. The 5.9 is capable of tremendous power just in programming. If you...

    Any tips to R/R the cloroplast?

    When I remounted our water tank, I used 1 1/2" high density foam to replace the coroplastic under the tank. Been there 2 years and about 10,000 miles. I am thinking about replacing all the coroplastic with it. Better R-value and easier to work with. Here is the link to my tank remount...
