Re: hello camper folks, 12 volt question, needing answer please Now John, he said he was getting 13V from the converter back to the battery...

Re: hello camper folks, 12 volt question, needing answer please Sounds like a bad battery.

Re: hello camper folks, 12 volt question, needing answer please What does the voltage read at the battery when you are plugged into shore power? How do you know your battery is dying?

Everyone is fixated on "tabs." Can you post a picture of yours to clarify things?

Seems to be just a slightly smaller, less expensive little brother to the 760.

Check the bulb on the trailer.

The Universal Docking Center. Its the outside compartment where your cable, satellite and water hookup are located. Also, maybe your dump valves.

A convenient place to park the rig and visit Casinos, but we found it not a fun place to hang out because of the aircraft noise.

Well, as far as I can tell, the most common acronym among RV owners is "WTF" - but you probably know that one. :o

Don't use any of the satellite connections for park cable. You should have a single, separate coax connector in the UDC for park cable.

Re: Question on 50Amp servvice using SurgeGurad hardwire unit L1 and L2 each supply 50A for a total of 100A @ 120VAC or 12KW. Suspect park power or breaker. Watch for a low voltage condition that was not severe enough to trip the SurgeGuard and have the park breaker checked.

I've seen this with steel bottles (it should be even more pronounced with aluminum) when I was drawing hard on them, especially in a warm, humid environment. As the liquid propane vaporizes in the tank, it absorbs a lot of heat and the bottles can get frosty.

Have you checked the warranty on your A/C unit? It may be different than Heartland's coach warranty.

According to Heartland's website, those G-rated tires are now standard on the BC 3070RE. That's what I'd do.

It can easily be done, but why?

I turn mine up until the trailer brakes alone will lock-up the wheels at 20 mph, then back it down a few tenths of a volt.

You could also consult the manufacturer - www.thesmarttiles.com/en_us/

If the gasket is tight to the wall then the slide is fully extended. You will always be able to get your fingers between the wall and the wood trim.

Is the gasket (not the interior trim) tight against the interior wall?

Not legal anywhere - he is proposing a boat, behind a car, behind a fifth-wheel, behind a truck. That's 4 vehicles.

There is no state where what you propose is legal, but please do it and post a pic. This I gotta see.

Re: Trying to dry camp Do you have a residential refer?

I think you have an aluminum tank. The brass fitting could lead to galvanic corrosion.

Re: Refrigerator showing "No FL" Error The fact that it worked when you were hooked to shore power but now starts throwing errors while you are dry camping could be a symptom of low batteries or other problems with the control board.

Amplifier as the cause is improbable. Sounds more like lighting damage.

Not sure what you mean by 'revolutions of the screw.' Don't you have hydraulic landing gear?

Re: 50 amp breakers I didn't see anywhere in this thread where you inspected the connection to that hot breaker. Remove the wire from the breaker and make sure its properly stripped, not partially broken, etc. and reconnect it.

None - waste of money.

I doubt that there is a more expensive source of LED lights than Camping World. Just another example of a product which is not RV-specific getting ridiculous mark-ups as soon as the "RV" nomenclature is attached.

Etrailer or any of the other online retailers sell the complete brake assembly on the backing plate for $60-$80 depending on axle capacity. I doing my own when the time comes.

Could be axle alignment. Is the distance between the center of the wheels on each side the same?

All battery manufacturers specify distilled water for maintenance. Here's an example from the Interstate Battery website: http://www.batteries-faq.com/activekb/questions.php?questionid=6.

Seriously though, last summer at a group campout I was trying to maneuver into a site with a some low branches. Another member of our group came over with a cordless sawzall, climbed up on the roof of my trailer and took down a couple of 2-3" limbs in a few seconds. Oh, and the batteries are...

There are on-street lots behind the Market, under the viaduct. Be prepared to pay $20 and up for parking. Touring Seattle in a full sized pickup is a great argument for a MH with a small toad :o.

You should have 2 low point drains - one for hot and one for cold, and a freshwater tank drain. If your rig was properly winterized, You don't have antifreeze in your fresh water tank.

All the engine work in the world will not change the fact the you are way over GCWR and probably way over payload capacity as well.

EPDM rubber roofs require no coating.

Any one you prefer.

Residential is not for everyone. My solar/battery setup would not support that for the 3-5 days we sometimes boondock.
