Thank y'all for the lesson. I have never had a "mechanical" slide. Last MH was Kwikeep electric and they stopped by controllers monitoring current flow. Present system is Power Gear with Schwintek controller and Schwintek with Schwintek controller. Had a motor go out on on side of the Power Gear slide-out last summer. One of the reasons I asked the question is due to the lessons I learned on our system. Always, Always keep the button depressed when extending or retracting the slide and keep it depressed for a minimum of 5 seconds after the slide comes to a stop. I can attest that when I bring the slide in I can hear one of the motors continuing to run for a few seconds after the slide stops. This is synchronizing the two motors. When extending and there is a need to stop, be sure to continue in the original direction of travel, then reverse if necessary, otherwise the motors could get out of sync - then the problems start. If the "override" of the controller needs to be used be very careful as that does away with all safety items of the slide/controller. On of DW's "prettys" fell down and wen extending the slide it could be heard crunching. Very powerful. The slide motor on my coach is about 2-1/2 inches in diameter and abiout 6 or 7 inches long. Small item with a powerful pull/push.

Rich, I'm curious as to the operation of that slide. I'm not familiar with a "mechanical" slide. When you are extending or retracting the slide and there is resistance at the end of travel, what turns the slide motor off to prevent breaking something. Those motors are very powerful.

I have found LCI very helpful when I have called them. I sent you their number. Keep us informed.

Rich, I'm out of pocket today but I'm about 45 miles South of you. If you need a tool, I might have it. I can deliver tomorrow if needed.

Does this help: Possible manual Oops got PM not the right one

Rich, Bob Jones and RV Masters both have 4-1/2 stars if that means anything. I have not used them personally. If they are busy there are a few more in that area. Bob Jones: (713) 910-2949 RV Masters: (713) 461-2300 What year is your Bounder.

What campground? US-90 runs right through Houston, and you could be in several of the cities South of there. Email me if you need to keep it on the QT.

Rich, it might help if we knew what campground. On the other side: have you done the reset on the electronic controller?

In regards to the OP, pay the fine just in case you travel through that state again. If you don't pay the fine there will be a warrant out for your arrest and that can cost you a bundle in the end.

Prior to having a 50 amp service put in I ran off of 120v in my prior 2007 Montana 5th wheel. I ran 1 AC with no problems. We learned quickly that if DW want to run the vacuum cleaner the AC needs to go off. I used the shortest 12 gauge cord I could from the garage outlet to the RV and used the 50 to 120v adapter. What worked for me may or may not work for you. As Brett stated, measure the voltage with the AC load on it and if it is above 108v you should not have a problem. Also, check with your hand at the power connections for excessive heat. If it is hot to the touch, stop using it. It will not take long to heat up if there is a problem, just monitor it.

I would suggest reading Article 2 and 3 of the UCMJ. It's online. Also. Army and Air Force can be retired after 20 years. Navy and Marine Corps are transferred to the Fleet Reserves and after 30 years. retired. In all probability a member would not be recalled but it has happened in the past. If it is a crime against National Security then a recall and punishment under the UCMJ would most likely happen.

Five, that is absolutely true, but it does not apply to my original post as the post refers to prosecution under the UCMJ. Doesn't mater how long one has been out. My personal opinion is that the mention of being recalled to active duty should not have been part of that article.

What he said. Now go out and buy a six pack of beer with the savings and relish the moment. I just love it when a plan comes together.

This does present some serious problems as well. Convictions by civil authorities can cause you to lose retirement benefits. Drunk driving while retired? Smoking marijuana where it is illegal? Adultery after retirement? Disrespect to the President? Just to name a few. Military Retirees subject to UCMJ

Whether DTV or DISH, they all have their problems. I switched from DTV many many moons ago to DISH and never regretted it. Now I have the Hopper 3 at home and it is capable of recording 16 channels simultaneously. I can't watch that many channels so we just record a few we like. As for local channels when on the road, and I have the Wally receiver for the MH. It is not as robust as the Hopper 3 but serves our purpose. We pay an additional $7.00 a month to have the Wally in the MH and we can turn it off for the months we don't use it. Lorne, consider asking to speak with a supervisor and when push comes to shove tell them you will not consider moving to DISH Network. That usually starts some kindling smoldering and you may get what you want, a switch of all to one account. Good luck.

Try looking at a GM Windcruiser. They have a protrusion on the back that may fit the bill. I"m at Fort Sam Houston and we have one in the park.

The article had me worried there at the beginning as I was wondering how thr DEF in the tank would be affected. I find it strange that DEF stored in its original container is affected but DEF in the vehicles DEF tank is not.

Ha ha! I've fooled them several times. Our CC company issues us two cards, one for me, one for her. The numbers are different but the account is the same. They did this i case a card was lost or stolen then they could stop that card and the other would be good until new cards could be issued. I like the policy. So when my card fills up at the pump I use the other card with a different number. it is not the CC company but the vendor. Don't ask a clerk as they have no idea.

Do you have a model number on the 3rd generation OTA adapter?

Maker of slide out. Controller model of slide out. All would be helpful in trying to give you some help. We may have a different model MH but we may have the same slideout mechanism and controls.

How do you raise the tire(s) of the ground. Not with the leveling system I hope.

Regardless of who or how, make sure your better half is with you when you hide your own Easter Eggs, or you may never find them. Happy Easter!

That's a good route Carl. More than one way to get there.

At my age Happy Hour is a nap. Twomcool, You probably have your trip planned out but if you are taking your time. Here is one way to avoid Houston, although I personally don't feel it is that bad to drive through Houston. Pick up Hwy 105 in Beaumont, TX and follow it all the way to Navasota, TX. In Navasota take Hwy 6 south to Hempstead, then Hwy 159 to Bellville, and then 36 to I-10. For those that don't like city driving the 105 route is much less stressful. Where will you be staying in SA? Congratulations on winning.
