    I have a Monaco Knight DFT. I have been trying to get my bay heater to work. The fan runs but the heat will not come on. I was told that I needed either a snap switch or thermostat to make it run. I understand that the heater needs to be removed to put in a new thermostat. In the water bay there is a chrome thing hanging down from behind the panel. It has wires running to and from one end. It looks like a handle but does not release anything because the electrical wires, it just hangs loose. I wish someone could tell me what this thing is. I have shown it to several people and they did not know.

    Thanks

    You need to really look at where the campgrounds are located and how you use your rig to determine if it is cost effective or not. For us, we camp in locations closest to our favorite Jeepn' areas or alongside our favorite bass lake and there usually is never one of these types of campgrounds nearby. The other issue is that if you pay $500/yr to belong to one of these things then you end up feeling that you're not getting your money's worth if you don't stay at one, even if it's not where you want to be or your friends are all gathering at a place that doesn't have one, etc. We are life members of Goodsam and that is about all we want to spend on those types of memberships. For some they are great for others not so great, up to you if you see value in it or not.

    I see you are from Washington, can you give me a good place to stay about a week around Mt. Ranier, St Helens, we will be there last of May first of June.

    Now to pick up where we left off, sorry I have been to many Grandchildren Christmas plays and such. Another question, are the raods better if we leave off California and go throufgh Calgary or Edmonson. I am really concerned about the roads on the west side of BC, I have heard so many scary stories and broken windshields and tire problems. Also are the roads after you enter Alaska good, do I need to bring spare tires for the coach. We have even thought about leaving the coach in Seattle and flying to Anchorage, reat a car and stay but we hate to not have our pride and joy

    We are making plans for a trip tp Alaska in our 40-foot Monaco. We need information, especially places not to try and what was your best experience. We are going to try to leave in May for about 60 days. We'd like to know places you liked and why, places to skip, best roads and worst roads.

    By the way, we are leaving from Tennessee and would like to go to California and then up the coast, but would that be too much travel for 60 days?

    Thanks.

    My new coach has commodes that have grinders. I think they are called macerating commodes, and they work fine. My question is can I use paper other than the John Wayne paper that is recommended, or can I use a nice soft paper? I'd like to know if I can use any type of paper with these comodes. Thanks.

    I am not sure this is the right place but I have been trying to find the little plugs that fit in the vents at the bottom of the windows. I understand the vents are for draining the water, but I have seen some people with the plugs I am trying to find. They are manufactured by Atwood and I have searched their site and still can't find them. They stop the wind noise.

    Help.

    Read this ... the way I understand is that all moisture goes out the drain and none into the coach:

    NO DRYER VENT REQ. ON THIS MACHINE: This machine incorporates an internal condenser for drying. All humidity stays

    within the unit and is drained as water. No heated or air-conditioned air is exhausted outside, so no vent is needed. This not

    only conserves energy, but also avoids problems with the delicate air balance requirements in large multifamily complexes.

    We have bought a new MH, Monaco Knight, it come without a wasger dryer. I have been looking for a good one and decided to buy the Splendide 7100 XC Washer/Dryer - Platinum, I noticed it was non-vented model. I am concerned about the moisture in the coach, is this OK for RV use or would it be better to find a vented one. The MH is plumbed for water and drain, I do not know about a vent

    I have a new motor hoe that did not come with a washer/dryer combo, it is plumbed for a combo unit. I have been looking for a unit and had decided on the Splendide WDC7100XC Laundry Center. I noticed that this unit was not vwented to the outside. Do I need to have a vented or non-vented unit. I am concerned about moisture in the coach.

    Thanks giys, I appreciate the info. The only problem I may have if I cannot get this resolved is the commodes may not flush if I am in position that the commoded give a full signal. IN the book it mentions this could happen. I think I will try the Rid-X, soes it need to when the coach is a rest not being used

    I think that I did not put enough water to the tank and I have a build up in the tank. The comodes are macerators, will the Dawn work if that is the problem. It has a rinse, evry time I have rinsed the tank but it still holds about 1/3 reading.

    Thanks

    I have bought a 2008 Monaco Knight 40 DFW and it has Santi-Co and Aelectric comodes. They both seem to work great, but for some reason I cannot empty the black-water tank completely. The pump runs until it is out of liquid, but the sensor displays 1/3 full. Any suggestions?
