We are towing a 2005 Toyota Highlander 4WD V6 Automatic using a Remco transmission pump. The car is placed in neutral and the key returned to the accessory position to keep the steering wheel unlocked. The brake assist is a BrakeMaster 9000 from Roadmaster connected to the air brake system on my Diesel pusher motorhome. We have towed it many times without a problem until recently. We are on a trip to Alaska and have gone about 1500 miles so far, driving about 200 mile legs and have driven the car after each leg. On 2 of those legs the battery was drained and had to be jumpstarted. I am sure that everything, radio, heater, etc., was turned off. On this last leg the battery was down to 7 volts. Any ideas as to what can be draining the battery? Can I or should I disconnect the battery while it is being towed?

We have a 2002 Holiday Rambler Endeavor. We emptied the holding tanks and tried to use the flushing system, but no water would go through to flush the tank. I traced the water line to the other side (right side) of the motorhome where it went ito the side of the black-water holding tank. I disconnected the line and attached a garden hose and was able to flush the tank, which indicats that the water line is plugged somewhere. The water line runs to the right side of the coach and then goes up into the subfloor where the toilet is located. It then comes back down through the same hold and into the tank. I suspect there is a backflow valve that may be stuck, but I don't know where it is or how to get to it. Has anyone had this experience and how was it resolved? We did flush it out in the past with no problem. We have only had this coach for a few months. Bill and Lauren Knoff

We just purchased our 2002 Holiday Rambler Endeavor. Brought it home yesterday. Today we noticed that the coach batteries were boiling over during charging by the inverter/charger and still not at 12 volts. Is this indicative of bad batteries or overcharging? The inverter charger was set for gel batteries. We are stumped as to what to do? Plus, are batteries ruined?
