We meet up next year, you are making the Biscuits

I already had a class A CDL, doubles, tank and air brake endorsement. I helped another FMCA member get his also. Pretty weak here in PA to get a Non-CDL class B for a large coach.

Good to know, glad you got it fixed.

Just found this: It is a combination of a regular convection oven with a microwave, so you have both hot air and microwaves cooking your food. So the advantage is you get the quick interior heating of the microwaves combined with the surface browning from the hot air; convection just makes that hot air cooking faster and more even.
-
Hadn't thought about that.....call an appliance repair shop, I just figured it had heating elements in there like a conventional oven since it will brown food like a regular oven, unlike a microwave

Obedb, not sure how important leveling a residential refrigerator other than water draining properly in defrost mode or having nice consistent ice cubes. If that was the case you couldn't run the A/C in your car if you were driving or parked on a hill. -
Yep, if its like the Sharp carousel we have in our coach its pretty simple. press Convec button, the display will ask for a desired temperature once you press that it will ask for time, enter the time and press start. Then you have to allow the heating elements to warm up, put your food in and restart it. I have made cookies, biscuits and cooked a Turkey breast in ours, I think it works better than the traditional RV gas ovens as it cooks evenly. You can tell its not microwaving, the temperature inside is very hot unlike when its being used as a microwave.

Bill, nice write up! I have peaked at our 8 air bags, they show no signs of age or fatigue but they are on my mind often since the coach was built in July 01'. I have nylon protectors (hula skirts) in front of them to protect them from road debris kicked up and those have seen better days, I have got to locate replacements and get them swapped out soon.

Carl, I have the same model on the tower at home, never had to do that to it. If you are not comfortable working around high voltage I would send it back to them.
-
Hmm, I just bought a product at Hershey similar. Picked up the application pole and towels and the product, works the same but with the extendable pole no ladder needed. here's the link http://www.simplereflectioncleaner.com/

I have got to remember that! 2 kids under 20, one full time in college, the other 16, just got her learners permit let the gray hair begin . Just east of Lancaster PA, part time RV traveling making memories.

sideskr, I applaud you for identifying a potential weak spot and asking. Most never do and get stuck with a poor engineered design that will leave a hole in your wallet and without the unit as it sits at a dealer while they fiddle around with it. To put it into perspective, our coach is an 02', I have every receipt (except fuel) down to wiper blades purchased from the previous owner, it had the front slide adjusted once by the selling dealer prior to them taking delivery in 01'. You can view that from different angles, they either got it right in the engineering and execution or I'm sitting on a bomb .
-
This is usually the point of failure.
-
Personally I would walk away from any unit with cable slides. They are a beast to repair and adjust and they require it often, the other issue I have read is the particle board they are fastened to cannot handle the cross torque on the pulley's, and they will tear off the walls. I saw a later model where they fastened tin to the wood and ran the screws into that, it didn't last either.
-
I can understand why, both of ours have already asked if they can still tag along after they are 18 . YEA!!
-
ok, I'm 45 wife is 47, kids are 16 and 17.

Reason I asked; I have one from NAPA, constant duty for the house power that is controlled by the salesman switch, that solenoid gets very hot. I was considering replacing it with this one. The one that failed before actually scorched the fiberglass its mounted to, so they do get hot which is a huge concern of mine, I can understand why the OP is raising the issue. http://www.partdeal.com/cole-hersee-12v-200a-continuous-duty-solenoid-24213.html?zmam=74973193&zmas=1&zmac=4&zmap=77197098&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIxfOSs9_o1gIVRh-GCh0qMQf-EAQYBSABEgKsp_D_BwE

Welcome!! the last photo looks like it was taken near our house in Lancaster PA. How old are the kids traveling with you?
-
Glad I don't have that problem, my drivers seat all the way back is almost 1' from the slide, unless the seat is reclined into a laying position. Funny, I still have the warning decal above the switch to put the seat all the way forward DW is notorious for leaving the leg rest open and the stairwell cover closed so I cant get down the staircase to the door
-
DW loves that power leg rest, if it went away it would'nt go over well
-
This brings up an interesting question; are these normally open or closed? I realize there is "no standard" but anyone that has experience, should it be energized with the house power on?
-
The biggest issue I have with our coach and seats, you drive so long between fill ups, my lower back starts to hurt. With the gasser 180 miles and you had to stop for fuel, this gave me a chance to stretch. But in a C you only have enough room to sneeze, no room to move your legs due to the dog house, so after a few hours the pain was real, now its just some discomfort.
-
Do any of these recommendations have adjustable lumbar? How about the passenger seat, does it have the power leg rest?

Bill, I'll park the coach and drive in with the Jeep, no problem. Maybe drop in on Roswell and off to some other place. Any ghost towns or old Wild West towns around within a few hours?
