    Power for the Propane Leak Detector

    Scott Can you tell me how the propane leak detector is supposed to be wired? Mine appears to be wired through the Propane Water Heater switch. We found this out today when the alarm started going off. When I turned the Water heater switch off, the alarm quit. That just doesn't seem right to me...

    Grey water tank valve not closing

    My Grey water tank #1 (Galley tank) is not closing all the way. I've taken the plate off in the docking center and looked at the handle end and also opened the belly and looked at the valve end. They look OK, in fact I had the better half open and close it while I looked at the valve. Looks OK...

    Where do you jack your trailer?

    Scott Could you address the question on where we should place the jacks to work on our tires. The Al-Ko manual says to follow the trailer manufacturer's recommendations on what to do. The owner's manual I received does not address it very well. I had an RV repair shop and a trailer shop tell me...

I found that you can't do it unless you take it apart all the way back to the shower drain. One end ot the trap is glued. You can loosen...

    Black & grey water tank draining.

    When I drain the grey water tanks, they never fill up the sewer hose like my old Montana trailer did. When I drain the black water tank, it fills the sewer hose at the beginning of the draining process and then quickly tapers off. The reason I can tell how the water is draining is because I use...

    Garmin GPS software

    Hi All If you have a Garmin GPS, go to the Garmin site and check to see if their new software "NRouter" works on your GPS. I've made two trips now with it and it works very well. What it gives you is a "route to destination" capability with audio directions. If you go off the route, it...

    Mice

    Well, we've got mice. We're in Two Rivers Park near Royalton, MN. The park is in the middle of farm country so it's not surprising mice are around. I've gone through several of the common remidies you find when you search for them on the forums. Tried Bounce sheets: didn't work, in fact...

    Paneling Problems

    Anybody have problems with staples pulling out of their paneling? We have the Monticello with the washer/dryer cabinet in the bedroom.

    Sewer hose storage area

    Has any body found sewer hose fittings that fit in the hose storage compartment. On the monticello, it looks like the diameter of the storage tube is such that the hose is the only thing that will fit. That doesn't seem to convenient to me. It's a lot of trouble to take the fittings off the the...

The rivets shered and the bracket turned over and is resting on top of the slide. I'll have to get a longer ladder tomorrow to get up there and see if I can repair it. I can...
