You had a comment on leaving your battery on a trickle charge. If you can, just leave your camper plugged in all the time. The onboard intelligent charger/converter will tend to the battery. If you have a flooded battery you just need to check the electrolyte (water) every few months. You should...

Plenty of adapters to choose from HERE. Peace Dave

I'm a little confused here. If there is no power available where are you going to get power to run a battery charger? If you mean that there is no 30 or 50 amp receptacle why not just get a dogbone adapter, 20 amp to 30 or 50 amp, and let the onboard converter take care of the battery. Peace Dave

I have the same floor plan in a Bighorn. I've had that wall out many times. If after following Dan's trouble shooting you feel you need to remove the wall here are a few tips. First you will need to empty the basement. You will need to remove the door side half of the wall first. There are...

I've sealed mine with an inner tube cut to size. I do like what you have done with the plywood cover and only one screw to allow for some up and down movement that the ram makes. Nice job. Peace Dave

That's like asking what brand of truck to buy. Everyone has a different opinion. We prefer the stackable with a vented dryer. Peace Dave

I've heard of some battery disconnect switches being wired differently across several brands, so make sure the battery disconnect is on. Also check for 12 volts at the solenoid located at the hydraulic pump. And check the wired at the battery to be sure they are tight and there is no corrosion...

I've heard of plenty people that have used a grinder to remove those factory mounts. Myself included. Peace Dave

Ok, fixed. Peace Dave

Being as chea....uh I mean thrifty as I am it goes against the grain to replace the spare every time I replace tires. But as much as it hurts I replace the spare when replacing the tires. I just replace the five tires a couple months ago. Peace Dave

BrianF, have you checked all of the coax connectors? You need to pull the wall plates, unscrew the F-connectors and make sure there are no stands of the shielding touching the center traveler. You must also pull the signal amplifier, the thing with the little red button. And don't forget to...

Learn the differences between an Advantage plan and a supplemental plan. Peace Dave

Jim Posz has the best info. But, you should have been listening for the brake actuator (pump) running up front. You most likely will not hear a click at the wheels like you will with the drum brake (magnets). Peace Dave

Did he happen to mention how he determined that the brakes never worked? If it's been sitting since August there might be a coating of rust on the rotors. Peace Dave

That water at that hose connection eventually goes to your black tank. But before it gets there it runs through an anti siphon valve. You will need to follow that line to see where it leads. You should find the valve up in a wall somewhere, normally around a bathroom. If your shower has a round...

Looks nice. Peace Dave

Well, I'm thinkin that max vehicle length with All Add Ons would include any trailer/trailers considered as add ons. Just a guess. Also many people think of towing two trailers as double towing when it is actually triple towing. I've seen some strange things on the road including a truck towing...

Don't rely on what I said to be today's law. Check with your DMV. Peace Dave

New Mexico has a max combined tow length of 65 feet with a 40 foot max trailer length. Do you know what your max length will be? A good fabricated hitch welded to both frame rails is what you will want to investigate. Peace Dave

It looks like those are not the correct screws holding the pully system to the wall. My system has much heavier screws. Those look like the common screws used to hold aluminum trim, not for a system that gets the pressure of moving a slide. When you repair it use heavier screws. Peace Dave

Larry, we have always had them and always will for all the reasons taskswap mentioned. They can get a bit noisy in windy conditions but I guess it's like someone living near an airport. After a while they will ask what airplane. Peace Dave

Can you describe the seal a bit? Wiper seal, bulb seal, wiper attached to a plastic channel, stick on? Many here have replaced their seals. I have two different seal on order right now and will be replacing the old as soon as the new arrive. Peace Dave

The microwave, TV and fireplace should not be protected by the GFI, so I would check all the breakers. Inside as well as the shore power pedestal. Don't rely on a visual. Turn them off then on. Peace Dave

The red button marked heater that is on the holding tank monitor is for the propane heat part of the water heater. It also needs 12 volts DC to operate. Make sure you have propane in your tanks and they are turned on. The red light switch marked water heater is for the 120 volt operation of the...

It sure sounds like you have a leak somewhere in the rear. Have you ever inspected and/or done any caulking at the rear window and area where the rear cap meets the roof? Water leaks can be very difficult to track down. Peace Dave

Kaukauna. Nice. Peace Dave
