    Sharkbite Good or Bad

    Based on what appears to be simple application ie almost just a plug and play installation why not repair all leaks with sharkbite. Why go through the hassle of crimp tools etc. Is this based solely on personal preference?

    Sharkbite Good or Bad

    Thank you for all the responses. I see numerous issues with leaking fittings and always being on the lookout for potential leaks. I have not seen any problems once the sharkbite is added as far as leaks. That being said I am thinking during this down time why not replace with sharkbite and...

    Sharkbite Good or Bad

    I am considering systematically replacing all my water connections with Sharkbite that I can. Not because I am having any problems but I would like to avoid any future issues. Would this be a good or bad idea?

    Water Leak Under Kitchen Slide

    Sorry for the delay. No it was not the screw on connections that leaked. It was actually a crack in the H part of the faucet between the handles. Since it was covered by the faucet cover the water would leak back through the holes cut for the screw connections and down onto the floor behind...

    Water Leak Under Kitchen Slide

    Turns out it was not the water line to the fridge. The shower faucet is the culprit. Water leaking behind shower down to floor and then along side of trailer to floor in kitchen.

    Found it. Mine is just behind the sink. I see the fridge ice maker line comes off of it. I will give it a try and see if that is it.. thanks.

    Water Leak Under Kitchen Slide

    So I checked where the line enters the back of the fridge and didn't see anything. Under the island the only water shutoff I see is the cold water on the supply line to the sink. Is there another one I am missing?

    Water Leak Under Kitchen Slide

    After showering this morning we discovered water on the floor coming from under the kitchen slide. I checked the fridge access door and didn't see any leaking water there. I checked under shower and didn't see any water pooling there either. Any ideas where this may be coming from?

    Bedroom Accent Lights

    Yes we do have the KIB Multi-Plex Control System. So if what they found is correct would it require removing all of the wood trim just to replace the led strips? My other question is how does the wiring for the LED stips in the slide out trim pieces relate to the solid surface bed side...

    Bedroom Accent Lights

    Had the Landmark in the shop today and noticed that the accent lights in the bedroom around the slide out and the lights on the little solid surface counters on each side of the bed did not work.

    Tire Pressure

    Just so I am clear. I have heard that you should fill tires to cold pressure because that is the pressure required to carry maximum load. Would that cause an issue if I am not fully loaded? My other issue was the TPMS has I believe a 15% over and under on PSI from the initial preset which I...

    Tire Pressure

    So I purchased a TPMS for the Landmark. The trailer came with Sailun (hopefully I spelled that correctly) tires with a cold pressure spec of 125 psi. I took the Landmark to the shop for some work and tested out the TPMS. The front tires went from 125 psi to 138 psi and temp of 48 degrees...

    If I may ask where you found your replacement. I have looked for one in black but they seem difficult to find.

    Prep Fee

    I think there was a misunderstanding. The prep fee was something the dealer "normally" charges. It is not attached to the PDI. The PDI and any repairs found from it are covered free of charge. We reduced the amount of the prep fee they charged because of items we found during the PDI.

    Multi-purpose Access Hatch

    On the trip home from our new purchase the access hatch door over the black and grey tank valves blew off. Not very happy to get home and see a hole there. Has anyone replaced these doors and what did you replace them with?

    Prep Fee

    I really appreciate all the feedback. Final result is the fee was negotiated down 50%. This was due to the fact that there were issues discovered during the PDI that should have been taken care of during the dealer prep that we were paying for. We were pleased with the outcome.
