Back in the day (way back in the day), we had an method that help find gremlins in cars. We would put a volt meter between the positive battery post and the positive cable. The meter would show 12 volts. Then one by one we would pull fuses. Remove a fuse and if it still showed 12 volts, replace that fuse and move to the next. we would continue to the next one and so on till the meter went to zero. When the meter went to zero there was the circuit that was the culprit. It worked on cars, but have not tried it on a MH. You might try it and see if you can find your gremlin. Herman

Good advice. I have one thing to add. While checking the side walls don't forget to look between the treads. I have found, at times, found good side walls with bad cracking between the treads. Herman

JC, Perry would have been the place, since several glass dealers were there. RV Glass Solutions is who I call for windshield work. Herman

RVI quoted me a minimum of 16 hour @ $140.00 per hour plus parts to repair a leaking hose. I went to HWH and they did the repair for $281.00 complete. I would be suspect at any shop that took 6 weeks to complete minor repairs and then found something else to repair. Herman

Traveled that road for close to 40 years. Can be dicey if weather is bad but as Brett said, in goo weather it is a good road and great scenery. If I were going to take 380 to get to Cleburne I would take 380 to Jacksboro, then 281 South to I-20, then skirt around Ft. Worth on 20 to I-35 W then 35 south to Hwy 67 and West on 67 to Cleburne . I will some time tell folks the 380 runs from San Antonia to Greenville Texas, You can see them thinking and tell you it can't happen and then with a smile I will add San Antonia, New Mexico. Herman

Welcome to the Forum. Did you just purchase your unit? I would first check with King to see if your unit will pickup any or all of the three providers, Dish, Direct, and Bell (not sure if that the correct name}. Do You have a satellite provider at home? If so that is the one I would go with. Again Welcome, Herman

Steve if you will send me a PM when I get out of my meeting I will send you the instructions for my Monaco. It may help you set your own code. Herman

Check with Blue Ox or Roadmaster and see which has the best tow bar and base plates for your Lincoln, then look to M&G Engineering in Athens ,Texas. 903-675-2812 and ask Monty for your Lincoln's brake unit. In you live in the area they can install it there or tell you where they have an installer close to you. Herman

Down here in the Texas, Oklahoma area we have stations called "QT" (Quick Trip). They have a card called "Pump Start",which you swipe the card, fill up then go in and pay. Some stations will open the pump if you or the DW goes in and ask to fill up then pay. If you have or use one card for fuel only you might contact the CC company to see if they can set it up to go more than $100.00 at a time. Herman

I stand corrected, I didn't know the two were now one. Herman

Rwitt, Are you sure your steps Coachnet? I have a Monaco and my steps are Kwikee. However your step may be Lippert which has a Control Module 301702. I would contact Lippert tech department. I believe you have a wire crossed or miss placed. 229-423-7884. Herman

As said doing it at the time of an oil change is best. However it would also be good to check with your engine manufacture to be sure how many quarts your engine. Be sure and give them your engine serial number and they will know exactly how many quarts your engine holds. Herman

John, Jim is correct, call KVH. However if you are going to Perry there will be several vendors that can answer your question. Herman

IMHO, yours won't go down must in 3 to 4 years. I myself would wait until just before retiring and then think of trading. Then if you want to finance the coach you would have a income that would help with the rate. Newmar has in the past produced a fine quality coach. I am not sure about now. I have a friend that has a 2016 King Aire that has been in National Indoor RVs shop about 30% of the time and is there right now for warranty work (hae has an extended warranty and is glad he got). But it is a beautiful coach. Herman

DBenoit, Right off the hoof is not where the best cut of meat is. Herman

Good point Rich. Also to prevent any electrical issues, it is alway best to have your ground clamp as to your weld as possible. I have seen a person welding on an object beling held up with a magnet between the ground clamp and the weld and demagnetize the magnet. Welding current does some strange things. Also I would consult the chassis mfg. to see if the chassi should be welded on. Most large trucks have stickers all over the chassis saying "Do Not Weld on Chassis". Herman

Lone Star Rallies coming up and all are welcomed. Contact either myself or Carl with a PM in you are interested. April 4th - 6th, 2019 Whistle Stop RV Park...........Abilene, TX May 16th - 18the, 2019 Lagoons RV Resort.......Rockport, Texas Herman

Down here in the South it's called Southern Engineering. Leaving it off would not hurt anything. Herman

Bob, what is the purpose of the cage? I have never seen one on a coach. Is it org. equipment or aftermarket? Herman

Robert, Welcome to the Forum. Bill, three good and informative videos. Herman

HealthyGranddad, As Carl said, Welcome to the Forum. If you see a SAFETY OFFICER golf cart in Perry, flag me down. I would be glad to meet you. Herman

I don't ask a person that lives in a particular area if they know of a good park in their area, They may know if there are parks in their area but they haven't stayed at them. Well some people may take a trip to the local RV Park and stay there when they are 2 miles from home, but.... Now someone that has traveled through the town where you would like to stay is the one to ask, like Bill. I think he has stayed in at least 80% of the RV Parks in the usa. Herman

I never use a trip planner, I know where we are going. Perry, Chandler, Perry, Indianapolis, Perry, Gillette, Perry and the beat goes on............................ Herman

Bruce, How may times do you have to take this test? You've passed it numerous times. Trying for a higher score? Herman

I'm 6' 2" and feel the same way at times. Herman
