  1. I used PassPort America at Oasis. Yes Oasis is a little more but worth it. I stayed at Thousand Trails and I won't go back it took 3 spots before we found one that had power at the pedestal. Bill
  2. Look at your meter it may have a circuit tester feature. When you touch the probe to both ends of a wire it will sound a tone if you have a circuit. This is useful when you can't see a wire because it is in a bundle or behind something. Bill
  3. Have you consulted your owner's manual? Both the FMCA towing guide and Remco say it is not towable 4 down and you need to use a dolly. https://www.fmca.com/motorhome/towing/204-towing-guides-towing-four-wheels-down.html http://www.remcoindustries.com/Towing/Store.php Bill
  4. We were at a rally about 3 years ago there. Nice place but they get premium prices for all those going to Trade Days. Just looked at website. "Premium Pull Through Trade Days Weekend $69/day". There are several RV parks but no cheap ones during Trade Days. Bill
  5. I had the same set up. Simple enough to double check. Check voltage at #1 with shore power connected and with it disconnected. The #1 circuit was there to power your icemaker when not on shore power. You can run the NO Cold on gas or electric but for the ice maker to work when on gas you still need 110. Made me smile because it made the change over that much easier. Bill
  6. Hope you are feeling better. Now back to recruiting. Bill
  7. It still sounds like the relay. The relay clicks but doesn't shut off power. Have you measured power with one of the outher relays in this spot? Bill
  8. Might be a good time to look at the tire chart in the coach. Bill
  9. Hopefully you can get the drawings soon. Here is anouther guess. Can you determine which read switch is on the circuit that stayes "hot" or powered up. It could be the magnet on the reed switch is A, not lined up properly or B, not working properly. You said they all shower -0- voltage when you held a magnet to them. Bill
  10. I agree that the real growth will come from the ground up not the top down. By the way why did you stop with one? I am about 6 ahead of you and I haven't stopped. Bill
  11. Look at the bright side, now you don't have to get down on the ground and roll around with them. Bill
  12. Rich, You may have something with the sticking relay. Something is feeding power to that circuit. Interesting problem, most times it is no power this time we have power when we shouldn't. Bill
  13. They should be able to send them to you by email. "I reverse the wires on the inner slide motor to take it out. Once its out I put the wires back to normal and I can than push the close button and it will close correctly, however at that point the one relay stays energized which in not right." Check and see if the switch is working right. I believe it is a temporary switch (only makes contact when you hold it) and when you release it the power should be off. By relays, we are talking about the slide control circuit board. Bill
  14. Hopefully you can get some wiring diagrams or one of our more knowledgeable people will come along. See what you can find in the links Rich posted. Bill
  15. Welcome to the forum. Well I bet I see a couple of new tires in your future. Hope that solves the problem. Bill
  16. At what point does the magnet make contact? Can you switch relays to see if it makes a difference? My relays are all together. When I had a problem with the bedroom slide I switched moved the wiring connection/cannon plug with one of the front slides, controllers and used the switch for the front slide to operate it. Bill
  17. "The switched are basically magnetic rectangular." Yes like the magnetic locator switch on your front door that controls the front steps. Bill
  18. So it is a locater type setup. The magnets tell something(Controller) that the slide is in this position and now it can? I would look for what the sequence would be during the operation. Such as do both parts of the slide move /extend at the same tim? Or does the main part move all the way then the inner slide move? Can you get it to move in and out now? Bill
  19. I would look and see if there is an adjustment to the Magnet switch. Look for what the sequence would be during the operation. Bill
  20. It does sound like the typical sensors. Remember you won't see any water leaking with the pump off. It is still a good practise to shut the pump off when not in the coach/storage. Bill
  21. All good suggestions to a puzzling problem. Here is a big a** guess. Is it possible that while you had the waterpump on the water valve on the commode was leaking. Letting the water run into the black tank? I had one leak internally and fill the black tank. It wasn't a lot but it added up. Querious minds want to know. Bill
  22. I would try to get a wiring diagram and see if there is a limit switch that keeps the one slide from moving before the main one is extended. By the way what coach/ model is this? I don't think I have ever actually seen that setup in person. Bill
  23. Some young kid causing trouble on the forum. Bill
  24. I can see some benefit from that operation. You wouldn't take up as much room with the slides in yet have more room with them out. Bill
