TW, Welcome to the Forum. If your coach is a diesel I would go with an M&G Engineering system. Proportional and all you do is plug in, connect the brake away and go. IMHO (in my humble opinion) the best there is. For best results to an issue, put your coach information and tow vehicle information in you signature. Then folks will know more and be able to help right away. And again Welcome. Herman

Carl, if you enlarge the picture you can see some dust on one of the relays. Of course is may be a shadow. Herman

As for Whitewright that would only be 45 degrees. It's only 31 now and going down. Do you know how to say BURRRR. Yes I know up North that would be a mild day but here that's darn cold. Herman

(What happened to the factory set up on your coach, not working?) Sorry Joe I don't have such a setup. But yours look great. Herman

Mine cost $14.95 + tax at Wally World and has worked fine for about 4 year now. Comes on when I plug in or start the generator and off when unplugged and gen. Herman

Carl I have to say that when I went out the window it was around 2008, 11 years ago and 11 years younger. I was only 71 and still full Pi** and vinegar, now 11 years later it is only Pi** and No vineger. Herman

Also Welcome. If the part is truly obsolete and no longer available there are two I would try. Visone RV at usedrvparts.visonerv.com or Colaws RV Salvage at colawrvsalvage.com Herman

And to you and Linda. Hope to see you in February. Herman

Tomakazie, Welcome to the Forum. First Tom I removed your email address for your security. Folks can PM (personal message) here. I think if you check with Winnebago you can find out where they stubbed out the cables for future installations. Most all have them it in the front of the roof. On my Monaco there was already a in-motions on my roof so when I installed mt Traveler 1000, I just pulled the cables through the the same opening. I was very fortunate that mine worked the frist time i used it and hasn't stopped (knock on wood)yet. Your Traveler will have three cables, one for power and 2 coaxes. Their instructions are very good. Herman

Just a simple question what is the fuel level in the tank? Herman

Pop call winegard. They have a kit you can purchase. A friend of mine just ordered one. Cost?, he didn't say. Herman

Tarezzi, Welcome to the Forum or should I say the free Forum. If you just started to low power on take off but were able to get up to speed and the engine is just sluggest I would change your fuel filters. Dirty filters will cause the power to decrease and finally stop. When you remove the filters look closely to the top of the filter for foreign matter like gumand sludge. It is a cheap fix even if it doesn't help. It's like giving chicken soup to a dead man, "It may not help but it could't hurt." Herman (Joe got there while I was typing)

My key fob unlocks both the door and the bays, as does the keypad. I to keep a spare key fob with keys in the truck. I also have a door lock on my key ring. Herman

Mine is the same as yours Carl and Wayne. I will never use our deadbolt again. Bobbie used to lock the D/B while we drove down the road. We stopped for fuel and the D/B would not unlock. Took what I could off from the inside to no avail. I had to crawl out the window. Someone asked me how I got out. I said that you go out feet first until your belly stops you and just as you get your belly over the window ledge you are on your but on the ground. What I did was to pry back the door rubber molding and with a knife push to deadbolt back. On our coach the deadbolt is extended for extra length and the roll pin had broken. I fixed the D/B and never used it again. Herman

eckerman, Welcome to the Forum. Are you speaking of your Dead Bolt? If you are talking about the dead bolt I am sure there is a push button make that will work. However check the length of the Bolt. Some are extended to allow the lock to be mounted a bit further from the edge. I was looking to maybe replace the touch pad on my coach and it was very expensive and I already had everything else. Herman

Larry, as has been said Welcome to the Forum. Each Coach Manufacturer has a wiring diagram for every year, make and model. Sometimes there will also be different depending on the length of the vehicle. If you will look at several of the folks here you will see all the information on both their RV and their tow or pulling vehicle. Herman

My Trace Inverter charges only my house batteries and not the chassis. My little $14.00 charger from Wally World is in its 4th year and still working strong. Herman

If I were going to store my coach for the winter I would make sure my water system was drained, fuel tank full and fully charged (fluid level full) batteries are disconnected (both positive and negative). But since we go all year long I have a trickle charger mounted in my Battery compartment. It is plugged into my Block Heater outlet. The plug is only hot when plugged into shore power or the generator is running. When plugged in to shore power my inverter is keeping my house batteries and my trickle charger is mantining my chassis batteries. Since I have been using this method I have not had a low chassis battery. Herman

As said Particle Board wont hold too long. I can't remember who mentioned it but If it were me , I would take off the old top, go to a Granite, Marble or Corian shop and have one made from some sort of hard surface material. It may cost a bit more but I am willing to bet the DW would love it. Most shops have lots of drops that they would like to dispose of. They have cutouts from sinks that the customer paid for and I am sure they would like to sell material that is already paid for. Herman

Bill, it may be that you have to remove all staples that hold the one piece trim so you can replace the whole piece. That is what I would do rather then trying to do it from underneath. (I don't do too well looking up in confined spaces) Herman

Could be either Formica or Wilson Art materiel. As Bill said big box stores like Lowe's, Home Depot or Minard's. Herman

Most Gas absorption refrigerators have too little air flow to keep them working properly. Suggest you add one maybe two more cooling fans to the back of the unit. Herman

Jim I looked but couldn't find my paperwork on my service call. Sorry. Herman

I will start it off, We were on our way to the National Convention in Indianapolis and had engine issues. We limped into Joplin MO. and got to the Cummin Service Center. They ran a preliminary test and determined it was in the fuel system. (I had changed to filter just before we left home) They had 2 50 amp full hookups and we stayed the night. The next morning (Friday) they got it into the shop and found our Hi-Pressure pump was going out. They call around and found a pump in KC and that they would shave it ready for the new pump when it arrived that afternoon. It arrived around 4 pm and they finished the install at 1:45 am Saturday. Just as I paid the tech came in to say they found a leak. They said that they would stay the whole night to finish. I told them that I didn't need to be on the road til Monday afternoon so to go home for the weekend and we could start it up Monday morning. We had already planned on staying several days in Joplin since we were meeting friends there. They got the job done by mid day and we were on the road. What I didn't say was that their shop was loaded but since we were traveling on a schedule they worked us in. All of the service people and the tech couldn't have been better and helpful. I give them a 10! Herman

Carl brought up a great point. We hear all of the horror stories about how bad this service, how we couldn't get exactly what we wanted when we wanted it. Well now let's hear the good stories. We had a great time at ***** RV park. The service was great when we had **** troubles here. We all have had a great RVing story, now it the time to share your good fortune with us all. Only good stories, bad stories will be taken off. Lets hear some!!!! Herman
