    Slider motor laboring

    It's a cable slide. I opened it up and found a couple problems that I resolved. The frame bracket on the inside cables had slide way over to the outer most location causing the cable to hit the frame, very ugly. I installed a couple of bolts taking up the space moving the cable back to the...

    Slider motor laboring

    The last two times I brought the slide in the sound of the motor changed. New sounds catch my attention. When the slide first starts coming in it sounds normal but as it gets closer to the end the motor sounds like it's laboring. Getting ready to use it a bunch in October and don't want a...

    Found frig. not cooling, ice melting in freezer. The amber light was on, no fault code or red light. I turned the unit off and then back on and it fired up. I hooked up to AC power and the green light came on and it started cooling on AC. I unplugged the power and it wouldn't fire up on L.P. I...

    Norcold N611 & N811 Not working on either LP or AC but LP light is on

    I have the N611v Norcold. There is a hack on the single button units that I stumbled onto via Youtube. If you hold the button down until the light changes from yellow to green then release as soon as it changes it returns to AC. You can do the same thing to force the unit to go to LP even when...

    Slide cable has sagging

    My rear lower cable has about a 1 sag in it. The manual talks about removing a cover and adjusting the tension. The only cover I can see is the trim that has no apparent way to remove inside the unit. I can feel the cables behind this trim but again I see no attachments holding the trim on.

    GF protected plug cover

    I have a GF kitchen plug that seems to have failed. The plug cover has no screw in it to remove it. Before I bust it thought Id ask if there is a trick or just pry it off? Odd that there is no reset on this plug. Thanks Al

    ATF: North Trail - Water pump runs

    I get an intermittent burp of the water pump. I realize it's loosing pressure but I can't find any leaks anyplace. At times it happens every 10-15 min. and other times almost not at all. Could it be the check valve in my water pump? Thanks Al

    ATF: North Trail - low gas flow

    I put on a new tank and opened the valve slowly and switched to that tank and it seems to be working. Can I just close the valve on the other tank and reopen slowly? I'm feeling much better the temp was getting low and my water lines would be in danger without heat. Thanks Al

    North Trail - AC unit as entrance site for rodants

    I've gone all over the underbelly of my unit sealing up the cracks and possible entrance points for rodents. A friend told me that he had mice enter his unit via the AC roof unit, is that possible? I assume the unit is a closed system, should I be looking there for possible entrance points?

    North Trail - Battery Level Status display

    Re: ATF: North Trail - Levels Status display I’ll skip the 30 amp plug on the generator and try the 20 amp plug. If I’m understanding you the problem is with the generator as all cables / plugs are the same but give different results.
