    The voltage at the batteries is 13.6V, but I don't know where the pump motor is located.

    13.6V is charging voltage not actual battery voltage. 12.7 would be a fulley charged battery. 

    "Does anyone know why this is happening?" Yes jack systems draw a lot of curent. I like to be pluged into shore power before I run my jacks or slides.

    Welcome to the forum. 

    Not enough info, What load are you running? I would see what is avalible in the tire program that will carey the weight. I like the Michelin Defenders but don't know if they come in a hi enough weight rating. I woulden't run anything below load range "E" on something I was towing with. I might need to go higher based on the load.

    deanie8, consult your CRV manual.  It will tell you what fuse(s) need to be pulled.. although they are a pain to do.  Agree a charge line added should work or instead of a charge line take a look at  RVi's Towed Battery Charger Plus.  There are some good Youtube sites dealing specifically with the Honda CRV and a dead battery when towing.

    Welcome to the form. I have seen people with CR-Vs have the key in the wrong position. You can tell real quick because the daytime running lights are on. Free tip of the day push the button and have it on Recykle air. This helps to keep exaust fumes/smell out of the car.

    I have 2 Coleman Mach A/C units which also have electric heat.

    I used them to heat our motorhome the first night with no issues. The second day they ran fine but that night they started to blow cold air.  I shut them down and a few hours later turned them on and they worked fine all day into the night. Then sometime during the late night they started blowing cold air again. I switched over to propane heat and that went well.  
    Are you supposed to use propane when it gets too cold or over prolonged periods? Is that possibly the reason the electric stopped blowing hot?

    What were the outside temps? Heat pumps don't work reliabley below about 45 deg. Heat pumps are your roof air conditioner runnig in reverse. The outher thing to be aware of the heat pumps have no way to heat your basment storage/wet bay to prevent frezing.

    My last coach would switch to the propane furnace below a certin temp. When it was cold or going to be cold I just left it on furnace.

    what type fluid goes in my leveling system?

    where to fill it?

     

    Well My 2003 Bounder called for Dextron III You could call them and ask.

    I was sitting hear thinking trying to remember. It is a big tank where the pump is. There is a plug you have to take out to add the fluid. You will probabley need a funel with about 15" of hose on the end. Fill the tank with all the jacks up, to the bottom of the hole. put the plug back in and run the jacks a couple times to get any air out and recheack the leavel.

    I think it was in the first compartment on the drivers side on my 38N. Ihave seen them inside the whel well front side on the pasenger side. Let us know what you find. You could have someone run the jacks while you listion for the pump.

    Wayne, this is what the RV park put out as directions on how to get to the park.

    Directions

    ***NOTE TO GPS USERS:  Our address of 1700 Shady Grove Road does not show up correctly on GPS maps.  The recommended address to enter in your GPS is "1010 Shady Grove Road, Hot springs national park". This address will put you at the church on the corner of Carpenter Dam Rd & Shady Grove.  Keep driving approx. 1 mile and you will see our 1/4-mile sign. DO NOT follow your GPS if it says to take "Catherine Heights". If you do not have a GPS, please use the following directions:

    ***DIRECTIONS TO OUR RESORT:  From Interstate 30, take Exit 98B / HWY 270 to Hot Springs for 13 miles, when you come to the overpass, go under it and turn left at the stoplight and get on the westbound 70/270 bypass also known as MLK or Martin Luther King Blvd. Continue on 270 bypasses to take Exit 7/Carpenter Dam Rd. Turn left if coming from East / Turn Right if coming from the west onto Carpenter Dam Road. Go through one more intersection before coming to the intersection of Carpenter Dam and Shady Grove road. Go into the left turning lane.  Turn left onto Shady Grove Road. Catherine's Landing is 1.5 miles down Shady Grove Road. Our entrance is on the right.
