  1. Tow, I wonder if the issue you mention had anything to do with the latest information about Apple and their batteries. We have use our cell phones as a Hot Spot for some time with nary a problem.When home I tether to the computer and it keeps the phone charged like Ross said. Hope to see you in Perry. Herman
  2. Thank you JK. It helps you when the first thing you are always asked, "did you check the fuse?", there it is. I am sure , as Winnebago and you felt it was due to the cold. When it is that cold lots of things shrink and get very stiff. I think you are correct when you said you will, when it's warmer, give it some slack. And to, Welcome to the Forum. Herman
  3. As Archie and Edith would say "Ah those were the days". Great Picture, with lots of memories. No cell phones or laptops and the kids counted spotted horses or VWs and kept asking "Are we there yet?" Herman
  4. Roland, Go south as fast and safely as possible till you hit I-20 then turn West to I-10 and keep on going West. Going North from Michigan to get to Arizona in January is, pardon me but, insane. Freezing temperatures, no RV parks open in the winter time and maybe no snow but what about Black Ice. Head South to go West young man. Herman
  5. Lots of items in the coach think it is funny and giggle going down the highways and they sometime jiggle loose to. I had a loose ground in my Inverter and it was so bad that I took it out and had it bench tested and it was fine. I thought my ground felt a bit loose when i took it out. Made sure all was very tight when I reinstalled it no problems since. Herman
  6. 10-4, I am assuming Marvin Smith will be handling to Carts and radios for the Parking crews in Perry. Have a good winter in AZ. See you in Gillette. Herman
  7. Jim, with that much oil it would not need an oil pump. everything would be floating in oil. Herman
  8. Bill, If I have a issue on my Satellite may I PM you? You have answered a number of issues in the past. Thanks for the help. Herman
  9. Ross, long time no hear from you. Hope you had a good Christmas. Look forward to seeing you in Perry. Herman
  10. Sorry, I miss read the Post. The OP didn't say which system they had. Herman
  11. Joe, I suspect we are hearing more Sea Stories aka one uppens. "If you think that was bad, let me tell you what happened to me.........................." "Or I can top that." Let me quote Dragnet, "Just the facts mam". Herman
  12. Rob, As Carl said call HWH. I love the company and they do great work. If I have Leveling or Slide issues I will call them and make an appointment to go to the Factory. I can guarantee the job will be done right and at a much lower cost. They have hookups to stay overnight. However when they close and lock the gate you are there till morning. And on top of the great service you will have time to go North 6 miles to Tipton to the Tipton Family Restaurant for breakfast and then visit the ACE Hardware. 563-724-3396 or email Ashley Burkle aburkle@hwhcorp.com Herman
  13. Benny, My first thought when I saw you Topic Title "Homer Alaska RV Parks", was why in the H would you be looking this time of the year then I read further. JUNE, It may be a bad time for your friend to be looking at the RV Parks now. Most are probably closed and under snow. We have never been there but it is on our bucket list. Wildbill may know where to park there. Good Luck and have a great adventure when you go. Herman
  14. David, The 6 volt Batteries you have now are golf cart deep cycle batteries. If you are looking to replace them with 12 volt deep cycle batteries you will find that they are much larger batteries. I have seen newer coaches and newer Golf carts using 12 volt deep cycle batteries. Here an other case where size does mater. You might check with someone like Interstate Batteries and see what they have in size and Amp Hours and Cold Cranking Amps. You may have more Amp Hours with 4 6 volt than with 2 12 volt. In either case be sure you are discussing Deep Cycle Batteries and not Start Batteries when talking to a dealer. Herman
  15. Each time we return from a trip, I check the Water level on all 4 of my 6 volt deep cycle batteries and fill as necessary. Then I do the same just before we leave on our next excursion. To top off my batteries I have a pump up sprayer filled with Distilled Water. I cut the spray nozzle off and just use it to top off each cell. Herman
  16. Jim try unplugging it to see if the alarm quits. This would rule out the module. Better have the DW listen since you appear to be among the rest of us with selective hearing. Herman
  17. Would agree but Leaveittobeaver said that the from tires were 255s and the rear were 275s. He also said that the data plate called for 255/75R/22.5 all around. Could understand if the 275s were on the front for better weight capacity, but not the other way around. 275s on the rear would make the speedo off if it was set for 255s. Herman
  18. Jim, I think you might find the sensor in the overflow reservoir. Herman
  19. Agree, had my chassis batteries discharging in two days. Had my trickle charger on when parked. I would check it one time and the light would be blinking sayings it wasn't charging. Unplug and plugged it in and it would begin to charge. Got both Fully charged, disconnected both and load tested both. One in the green the other in the red. Replaced both and now the Trickle Charger stays in the Green (fully charged and maintaining). I have told this before, but will tell it again. I have a small Trickle Charger that stay connected to my Chassis Batteries. It is plugged into the Block Heater outlet in my engine compartment. When driving down the road the plug is dead. When on the Gen. or shore power the plug is how. This help maintain the chassis batteries to off set those troublesome trolls that always seem to draw in the batteries. Works well for me. Herman
  20. Not disputing the ride height difference but I am having a hard time seeing how a 1 inch difference over an 8 foot span could shift 2,000 pounds from one side to the other. One of the first things I would do would be to unload the coach and have the coach re weighted. If there is still a 2,000 lb difference then it has to be how the coach was laid out. What items are on each side that may effect the weight. i am trying to visualize what could make that much of a difference. Herman
  21. Not being condescending to anyone but remember we are driving a rolling earthquake down some of the roughest roads known to man . With all of the bouncing and cross winds it is a wonder we are able to talk let alone determine a squeak, rumble or pull when going down the road. Now get ready for everyone wishing you a Happy New Year. So Let me Start, Happy New Year!! Herman
  22. Brett, If you are listening, Hope you'll and your dad are having a great time. Tell him he can try but it is impossible to eat all the food. Have a lobster tail or two for me. Herman
  23. As a young child around 6 or 7, my Grandmother was making Fruit Cakes. I ate sooo much of the candied fruit that I was sick for three days. And to this day I can't stand the sight of Fruit Cake. Even the ones my mother made and put in the attic for several weeks wrapped in a towel soaked in Rum. Hope everyone is full and relaxing. Herman
  24. Thanks Wayne, that means I will be around for a really long time. Herman
  25. I'll take it. Knew I should have never posted that picture. Thanks Herman
