    Terry Classic V21 shade options

    There wasn't anything specifically made for the Terry Classic. The go to seems to be the "Shade RV" product. Beyond that, it's best to visit your roof at least 2 times per year, and keep washed at least once, this keeps it white and reflective, and alerts you to any potential issues. I wash mine...

    Flickering LED lights.

    Usually,,,,,it's the driving resistors that fail, causing the LED to flicker, or go out. If it's a through hole solder type, and you are handy, htey can be fized, if it's an surface mount resistor, than it's a bit more difficult procedure.

    2017 BigHorn Traveler 39MB

    If you are a 410A refrigerant system, which contains equal parts of R-32, and R-125, and you have had refrigerant loss, technically what's left in the system should be recovered before a new and complete charge is added. This is because neither refrigerant parts will leak out at the same amount...

    Norcold (1210) Fridge Stopped Working, Now It Works

    I'd say if you had codes, then the fridge already suggested what was wrong. Things like poor thermistor connections, drifting resistance values, Etc can cause no cool or fault codes. https://techsupport.pdxrvwholesale.com/technical-service-manuals/norcold-1201lrim/

    Can i disconnect batteries while hooked to shore power?

    Get a hardwired surge protector in either 30, or 50 Amp, with the wired remote display. It will display the shore voltage avail to the camper, the amps you are using, line frequency, IE: 60H, and fault codes. It can be bypassed from the remote, there are no dog bone units outside, just plug in...

    I have to replace the Magnetron in my Maytag Combination microwave Model # worn off

    Post a pic of the existing magnetron, there are replacements based off the current magnetron data. Typically when you replace the magnetron, you should replace the diode, and capacitor. This assures the high volt side is in good health. ERP parts is the number one aftermarket supplier for...

    It's Time to Test the Emergency Breakaway Switch on Your Trailer

    Actually a "dead short" is voltage to ground or neutral (same thing). The breakaway switch and it's branch circuit is a peripheral circuit energizes the electrical braking system exactly as the break controller would, with the exception that full 12 volts are supplied to the brakes instead of...

    Dangerous wiring of hot water heater.

    I get into a habit of checking my water heater, plumbing connections, and any electrical I can. That looks like a hand tight fitting on the outlet of the water heater, years of expansion and contraction will force a leak. My initial shakedown of my camper when purchased new revealed lots of...

    rv extended warranty

    I think the most important thing to note, that unless it's written in the contract terms, most likely not, you will not receive compensation for your down time, or loss of use of the RV, Camper, Etc., and will still be subject to whatever wait times to receive service, and duration of service...

    moveout/move in cleaning - Am i too cheap to think???

A review 3 years ago for a 2 story to remove construction dust was priced out at 1,400.00. If you do the math, you have more than one person, and half a day...

    Refrigerator Dead!

    The LG fridges that use the Linear compressor have a high compressor failure rate, a recent class action suit, which may be closed now supports this. Additionally Kenmore branded LG made fridges are affected too. LG branded usually have a 10 year on the compressor, while Kenmore have 1 year...

    A/C FREEZING AND MAKING ICE

    SO when an AC unit freezes up, there are several reasons. Low refrigerant, a low refrigerant charge will cause excess frost and some ice depending on how long it's been running. Usually the frost/ice pattern will encompass some of , or most of the coil, not all of it. A bad, misreading, or...

    Where might short circuit be?

    I have found, regardless of the definition for the red light being, "over current, or short circuit", that when the circuit is simply "open", like removing the fuse, or disconnecting the circuit wire from the screw terminal next to any fuse, you will get the red light. Maybe leave the USB out of...

    Very enlightening wiring job we found when our microwave quit

    I posted in my first year a very similar issue found at the shore cord to house wiring J box. Lack of enough stripped/exposed wire, and or lack of good wire to wire contact within the wire nut can cause this. Shorting connections can lead to heat can lead to your blackened and partial smoldered...

    Never again. Heartland slide out problem

    I've always said, use credit cards for everything you can. You at least can get consumer protection with them. My deposit was placed with a C/C, although a tiny percentage of the final cost, if a charge-back is successful, it will turn someones head. Alternately, when do people stand up?
