Welcome to the forum. Help me out with some more information. When you say "I have tried to unplug the refrig from the coach and plug it into a extension cord and it still trips the gfci." did you unplug both the cords behind the refrig? 30 amp is fine for this. Bill

First of all this post is from August 23, 2019. Don't know who the OP was dealing with. Ofcorse the dealer who is selling on consinmet wants him to drop his price, the sooner it sells the sooner he gits his money. For the record I just sold one of my spare diesel pushers at PPL Motorhomes. I got the price I wanted and they got their commision. Right now is a good time to sell. Bill

I just posted on a similar question. Read it and let me know if you have any questions. https://community.fmca.com/topic/15762-steep-hills-pac-brake/ Bill

I had a similar set up on my last coach and I have driven most of those hills including the Grapvine several times. My technique would be to slow before you head down. Some hills require trucks to slow to 30 mph. I usually start around 45-50 (or the speed and gear I came up in) and let it down shift to 4th gear. If it wants to speed up you can use the service breaks to slow it down by braking fairly hard then releasing the brakes once you have slowed to the speed and rpm you want to maintain so they don't overheat. If it wants to pick up speed you can always slow till it drops in to 3rd gear. I could go down a 35 degree hill and it wouldn't pick up the pace once I hit 3 ed gear. I would have to give it throttle to keep it from slowing more than needed. Bill

Who, What, When, Where or Just Lets Talk
wildebill308 replied to hermanmullins's topic in General Discussion
Let us know if it is still good. Last time I was in that area we stayed over at Heartland RV Park & Cabins. Rapid City, South Dakota has a lot of intersting things to see. Look for The City of Presidents Walk. They have statues of the Presidents on each street corner. Bill -
Quit goofing off, just put some bondo on it and get him out on the road. Bill

Where are you located? I would start trying to sell some of your excess inventory now. RV sales look to be at a real high. When looking for lights try googling the numbers cast into the lense to see what they came from. Bill

Welcome to the forum. There was some one not to long ago who had that problem. Most of the cost is labor, you can save some money doing it yourself. https://www.google.com/search?q=removing+diamond+shield+film&rlz=1C1GGGE_enUS621US621&oq=removing+dimond+shield&aqs=chrome.2.69i57j0l3.18960j1j8&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#kpvalbx=_GYjZXvrTB5HNtQaOuabABQ32 As you read above I haven't had that problem yet. I would try to find out what chemical they are using. You might be able to get it cheaper. Bill

Welcome to the forum. What is your tire size and what load range? Bill

So what kind of shag carpet are you going to put in to cover up those wood floors? Bill

Welcome to the forum. I would add NATIONAL INDOOR RV CENTERS. They have a store in Phoenix. I would call and see what they have or what may be coming in but not on the website yet. Newmar makes a realey nice handicap accessible coach. To get what you want you might be better off ordering one to get exactly what you want. The other problem is they are a limited production model so there aren't many out there. With the current market I would move as fast as possible before all the production slots for the year are sold. https://www.nirvc.com/ Let us know what you find out. Bill

Dometic 2351 RV Fridge not cooling well on LP
wildebill308 replied to theoilchanger's topic in Systems and Appliances
I would second that. I had one rupture on a old 1978 Executive I had and when I lit the stove I had flames up inside the vent a hood. Plenty of excitment. Bill -
Looking for info on National Vehicle Company to sell RV

You had 2 inspectors look at the coach and you knew Tiffin had a problem in that area and you still missed it? Bill -
Sherry/Ken, welcome to the forum. All I can say after looking at the whole thing is it's not for me. I have never seen one in use on the road in any campground or at any rally. I will stick to my CR-V 4 down. Bill

Looking for info on National Vehicle Company to sell RV
wildebill308 replied to jon1019's topic in Buying an RV
Did he ask to have the unit hooked up to shore power, water or run the generator? Kind of interesting because I just sold a RV through the Cleburne branch of PPL. I was required to deliver the coach there with a full fuel tank and over 1/2 water so the systems could be checked. I know they moved several trailers without generators to where they could be hooked up to be tested by people. Brett they do a complete make ready and check everything. They make shure everything is serviceable. This is on the sellers dime. I have to be somewhat suspicious of the refrigerator story. They don't mind spending money especially because it doesn't come out of their pocket. I am surprised they didn't just replace the refrigerator. Bill -

Chris, welcome to the forum. Where are you? It might help if you re read the whole thread. Things can look bad but you may be able to travel latter. Bill -
The Kenmore ice maker M1 SA8868 is manufactured by Frigidaire for use in Kenmore refrigerators and others. The equivalent Frigidaire part number is 241798224. Look on Amazon. Bill

Welcome to the forum. I don't see a problem as long as you are replacing the duells in pairs. The Toyos are 0.3 wider and 0.3 taller. Not enough to be worried about. There will be someone by all worried about duell spacing but I bet you could find more variation between tires than that. Let us know how it goes. Bill

Glad you got it fixed. Bill

When you need to know, use a helium leak detector. https://heliumleakdetection.net/what-is-helium-leak-detection/ I use to have one at work. The OP may be lucky as the stuff he used has a sealer in it and it might fix the problem for the season. Bill

Welcome to the forum. I would do a serch on Youtube, there must be a dozen reviews of systems. Bill
