Hi KansasK, I had posted this question back in June 2005. I did go ahead and purchase the air ride pin box and it definitely helps with the up and down motion and some of the chucking. I noticed you said you were about to purchase a 5th wheel. I have a really nice 2005 Landmark Golden Gate...

Just wanted to report that I got the San-T-Flush line fixed at the dealer. They were able to open up just a portion of the flexible underbelly neat the black tank flush and found the line clogged with what looked like sawdust before it enters the black tank. Works good now. I also installed a...

Black Tank Flush Hi All, I posted a thread a few weeks ago about problems with my black tank flush system (San-T-Flush). I have tested the vaccum breaker and check valve and they seem to work fine. Hooked an outside hose up directly to the line that leads out of the check valve to the black...

Hi All, Have a 2005 Golden Gate. Up till now the San-T-Flush worked great but all of a sudden it won't allow any water into the line. Found the vaccum breaker and control valve (behind the panelling on the side of the entry way closet). Took them apart and they seem to be working. Can get...

Hi Clark, We were in Indiana last fall and visited the manufacturer of the door locks as I needed a couple of keys. Landmark uses the following: Fastec Industrial Corp 23348 C.R. 6 Elkhart, IN 46515 1-800-837-2505 website: fastecindustrial.com If you call ask for Felicity (Flip) Miller...

A heat strip in the bedroom unit would probably do a pretty good job of heating the bedroom - however, they are noisy like the A/C since it uses the A/C fan. We have a small portable electric unit that does a great job in the bedroom. I never use the heat strip any longer . We do have the...

Hi Scott, Thanks for the clarification on the fresh water manual drain valve - now I know why I can't find mine. However, this seems like a critical aspect of the winterizing process. I am in the process now of winterizing my Golden Gate. In using the power tank drain I can get the tank...

Hi, You say it was an "add on" early last year? Was it an "add on" that the dealer installed? Also, do you know about what time last year it was available? Thanks, Bill

We have a 2005 Golden Gate. Mine does not have a manual drain valve for the fresh water tank under the trailer. There is the power drain valve but it only empties the tank to about 1/3. A friend in Wisconsin says his Golden Gate has a manual valve but I cannot find one on mine. I'm thinking...

Hi BigBlue, I did pull the fuse for the furnace. On any other fuse there is a red light that lights up next to it when it is blown or you pull the fuse. There was nothing with the furnace fuse. Didn't work when I put it back in. Is that all you had to do - just pull and reinsert the fuse...

Hi ddj, I have the same problem with my Golden Gate and also had it with my prior Montana. We spent the winter in Golden, CO 2 years ago and all our neighbors, whether they had high end motorhomes or 5th wheels, were challenged to keep their RV's warm. The most successful ones had skirts...

Furnace doesn't work I already had an appointment for warranty work next week here in Texas where we are staying. I called the service department and they worked with me today so that I didn't have to move the unit with the icy streets. They showed me how to bypass the remote and loaned me a...

We are camping in Texas and the weather has turned cold. Wouldn't you know it - we came home tonight and the Dometic remote contol does not operate at all so no furnace or heat strip. I tried the system override on receiver but nothing. Checked circuit breakers and changed batteries in the...

Winterizing questions Hi All, I have several questions related to winterizing. I've been full timing in my '05 Golden Gate and haven't had to winterize but probably will need to in a couple of months. Are the instructions in the Owner's Manual adequate? Power Drain - is there a manual...

Cooper, What dealer should we avoid?

Premature furnace shutdown Hi Bob, Yes, I have a Golden Gate and have the same problem. My unit has the remote contol thermostat and I also have the same issue with my air conditioner and heat strip in that the units shut down anywhere from 5 to 15 degrees before the desired settings. I...

I have the electric heat strip kit on my Duo Therm Air Conditioner. With the cool weather I have tried the heat strip and am very disappointed with the heat it generates. I can feel a little warm air out of the bedroom vents but the air coming out of the large A/C opening in the ceiling feels...

Noisy Furnace Hi Jim, Thanks for the reply. I'm going to add this to the list I have for my next warranty visit. Bill

Noisy furnace Hi Jim, I realize your post on noisy furnaces is pretty old but I just happened to read it the other day. My furnace on my Golden Gate is noisy so I removed the vent cover. The plenum has about a half inch of clearance from the floor. I tried to press it down but it was very...

Hi Glenn, Thanks for the information on your water leak. I had my underbelly off for about 5 days and tried everything I could think of with the water system to see if it would leak again - including flushing the tanks. Never could get it to leak again. The water that leaked seemed to be...

Hi Craig, A week ago I noticed water dripping out from the large underbelly panel covering the holding tanks on my Landmark. I removed all the screws and lowered the large underbelly panel. The insulation was soggy so I removed all of it to dry out. I thought I must have a water leak but...

Trail Air hitch Thanks to all of you who replied to my question about the Trail Air - Air ride hitch. Looks like I will probably be buying one soon. Thanks, Bill

I have a 2005 Golden Gate - it's one of the early ones that didn't have the Trail Air - Air ride hitch as a standard feature. I can get one from Trail Air for $930 installed. I'm pulling my Landmark with a 2003 Dodge 2500 short bed, Cummins HO, and have airbags. My last 5th wheel just had a...

Sewer drain leak Thanks to you all for your input on this. I guess I was just lucky with my first 5th wheel, Montana, as I never had the problem. I'll get the drain valve at Camping World. Bill

Sewer Drain Leaking Big Blue - thanks for the response. Do you have this problem with your Landmark? I'll check with Camping World. Does the valve on the cap allow you to just drain off the excess before opening? Thanks, Bill

I have a Golden Gate Landmark. I completely drain both grey tanks and the black tank and do a black tank flush after camping and let all the water drain out. Then after driving to the next RV park, I open the cap and about a quart of water gushes out. I have had it to two dealers who have...

Hi Seamo, If the Audio/TV button idea didn't work you might try this. Had the same problem with my Golden Gate. I have a RCA Receiver/DVD which has "Progressive Scan". I finally found an addendum in the instruction manual that says if Progressive Scan is activated and you don't have a TV...
