    Broken power recliner

    My power recliner has stuck in the open position. The light for the cup holder works, the heat function work, massage works, but when we press open or close I hear a click under and no movement. Has anyone had this issue? Is it a bad motor?

    How long can I run things without the generator?

    Hello everyone. I'm planning to add several batteries to my new 3914 because it seems to make sense to have additional power, but as this is my first RV I don't really know what all actually runs on batteries. Obviously the 12v lights do, and the radio, the fridge (optionally), and a couple of...
