You have to know how these things work. There is a central jack screw that turns to raise and lower the legs. There is a large captured nut down in the unit that the jack screw turns in. This captured nut will raise or lower the inner leg as the screw turns in it. This nut will eventually seize...

To me, it does not look right. It appears like the bottom could be extended more. Like the others have said, check the sealing of the sides against the inside. My slide outside walls are parallel with the trailer sides. The roof is angled down a bit.

Yes, it normal. However, it's not good. To fix the issue, lower the middle and rear legs a couple bolt holes. Lippert has a spec as to the minimum height from the ground to the bottom of the foot. I did this this mine. The middle and rear legs have a shorter throw than the front legs. When...

You did not say where the water is coming in at. Check the top where the roof cover meets the inside fascia as It is not sealed there.

Yes, I have and use this connector. I like it a lot. It is very easy to change over from your existing plug. Yes, I was one of those guys who forgot to disconnect the plug when unhooking ( after having installed this thing ). Perfect. It disconnected just like advertised. The magnet in the truck...

That device is not necessary to the system as a whole. Just bypass it and take it out of the system.

Yes, this is the trick. Add soft starts.

I would put them on the front hangers and the equalizer hangers also. There is a video out that shows just how much all of these hangers flex going down the road.

Obviously, everyone has their own opinion on this. The spindle takes up some of the space between the bearings but there is still a fair about of volume that need to be filled with grease if you use the easy lube method for the first time. My suggestion would be to hand pack the bearings for the...

Adding a second AC may not be that simple. I am not familiar with the electrical system in your unit but it may only be 30 amp. If it is, the only way to add a second AC is to add a soft start system to "both" AC units.

This atmospheric check valve is totally unnecessary. To remedy the situation, just bypass the valve completely and this will fix the problem for good. My check valve did not work from day one and I did this. From the basement, you can see the pipes going into the wall and coming back down and...

The legs are constructed with an inner leg and an outer leg. The screw that raises and lowers the unit (jack screw) is in the middle of it all. There is a captured nut that the jack screw turns in. This is what needs to get greased. To accomplish this, raise the legs to their full height and...

I would replace the entire leg. As I said before, doing anything from the top is not going to help. You need to remove the leg and take it apart. Yes there are two different leg part numbers but I cannot remember the part numbers or the difference. Call Venture manufacturing for help

There is no question that these things need to be reinforced. There are few ways to do this but everyone should.

You can get a motor on Amazon for $150.

I have written posts about the electric landing gear ( assuming you have electric ). The legs are not Lippert. Yes the legs are supposed to have to not lube the jack screw. However, that is not the case. You will have to disassemble the legs to get to the jam nut that the jack screw turns on...

If you are using your water pump, there could be some leaks there too as that does not run all the time. Station yourself in the area where you find water while other are using sinks, shower or whatever. By the way, most people call it the "basement".

This will give you something to do this weekend.

I get those notices from the utility company saying my bill is higher than my neighbor's too. I quickly fold it up and place it in the trash. Your battery charger is NOT pulling a lot of amps as someone has already stated. FORGETABOUTIT

Perhaps it has nothing to do with voltage to the brakes but the brakes themselves. Are they self adjusting brakes or manual adjusting brakes? Maybe they need adjusting. Electric brakes probably will not lock up anyway. Perhaps the connection point is not making good contact? Maybe there is...

The brake lights and brake controller are on separate circuits to the trailer. Perhaps the connection point where the trailer plugs into the tow vehicle is not making a good connection. This has happened to me a couple of times. Like you, I had brake lights but no brakes. I replaced the chord...

Ours is in same location.

From there to Denver is about 400 miles. KOA in Raton. KOA in Colorado City. KOA in Colorado Springs

You are joking right?? Why on earth would you use something that has been around from who knows when?

Why don't you call ICM. They claim to have RV units.

Yes, I lowered my rear and side legs 2 holes as I had the same issue from the start. Now, before traveling, I make sure that the legs are fully retracted as they sometimes do not.

Sell the 4 banger and drive the truck.

I have two of the devices and are very easy to install.

No, you will not see the magnetic switch as part of it is in the sill and part inside the door bottom. I got tired of that light malfunctioning and just cut the wires in the ceiling. Mine would turn on in the middle of the night.

That is the "welcome back" light. There is a switch in the basement that turns this light on by a magnetic switch in the bottom of the door. There may also be an on/off switch on the main panel. There is a wiring diagram in the above tools section

Pretty sure that the bypass is located behind the basement wall as is the water pump in the 3055. There is a small hose and valve connected to the water pump for the antifreeze. My original unit was a 3055. Fabricate some hinges or some sort of thing so the panel, that you have to remove, swings...

The vent you are showing looks like the furnace return vent. It could be that you have the fan setting on the thermostat set incorrectly. Make sure that it is on "auto". Make sure that you do not have the furnace running too. Set the thermostat to "cool". The return for the AC is in the...

Just bypass the valve completely. It is not necessary for everything to work. I have done this on a couple of trailers.

Generally, its in the bathroom.

Is your grey tank valve open? Keep it closed.

From my observation, this stuff does shrink over time. There should be slots on each side of the track to hold it in place

Well, are you confused yet. Grade 8 or Grade 5. The caliper flange has a torque spec. I have seen a couple of youtube videos about trailer caliper brake mounting where the bolts stripped while torquing. I don't think either one will shear.

Assuming that there is Power for the AC. There probably is no thermostat wire. As someone suggested, the easiest thing to do is to get a unit with the thermostat built into the unit itself. However if you like a wall stat., you could string a wire through the ceiling or use wall mount conduit.

If your tank is gravity filled, you probably have water trapped in the overflow/vent tube. Get a short piece of tubing about the same size as the overflow tube and blow out the overflow tube. You should hear water gurgling when filling from the vent tube.

Blown fuse?
