  1. Kitchen sink--- shower, both will not drain unless gray water dump valve is opened. That leaves the bath sink. how does it drain? Bad or good? If it is also bad or no then it is very simple, Stopped Up Vent Pipe. Just for kicks go up on top and run a hose down and try to remove or wash out any stoppage. Then try the drains. 

    😉You can always leave the gray tank open while driving and hope it is raining as to not draw any attention to your rig till you can get to your hook ups. I wont tell if you don't.

  2. Sounds to me like what several have said,  ATS.(Automatic Transfer Switch).

    L1 (Line one) and L2 (Line two) are the power lines in the power panel of the coach. Power is supplied by either shore power or generator. Power from either source must go through the ATS. In the ATS are two large contacts, one for each incoming power line. L1 will supply power to half the coach while L2 supplies power to the other half. 

    Since you are losing only power to half the coach, that tells me that your ground and neutrals are ok and the issue is one of the contacts is the problem. 

    IMHO,

  3. I have always used Buddy Bearings on my trailer hubs. They are replacements for your dust caps and you can grease the hubs through a zerk fitting in the cap. they are spring loaded and will always keep grease inside the bearing where you want it. They are used a lot on boat trailers and helps keep water out of the hubs. I check mine about once a year (when I remember to), add a bit of grease and go on my way. I use what ever the auto parts store has on sale. I'm not picky.

  4. I have had a awning that would blow out at times. I took a length of PVC pipe that was long enough go up the awning arm and extend down below the arm. I put foam (like what is used to wrap A/C tubing)on each end so it would not scratch to coach and secured it with a velcro strap. I had to do this when in Utah with very high winds. I later did tighten the tension on the roller. The manufacturer called for 21 turns and I went with 23 and never had a blow out again.

    Hope this helps.

  5. Welcome to the Forum. 

    When I am coming to a hill, just before it starts to rise I will accelerate so my turbo will kick in and my RPMs increase. This helps me on most inclines.

    On really long climbs I will down shift to help get the RPMs up.

    Again,  Welcome.

  6. There is a listing of service centers by categories in the January Issue of Family RVing. However it isn't, to my knowledge, in state by state order. I will speak with the folk and see if such a listing can be generated.  Thank you for your suggestion.
