    Camper too old

    Once a desk clerk asked if our MH was new, I replied "it was once" she never responded, just pushed a registration form to me. It's all about appearance.
  2. Before spending money, remove all 120VAC power sources, then open your ATS and tighten all electrical screw connections. Then do the same with your main breaker panel. If that doesn't solve anything, you only lost time and effort, but you then know they are tight. Things loosen in these rolling earthquakes on our wonderfully smooth roads.
  3. There are at least 2 financial institutions full-timers use. Bank of the West and Alliant,
  4. Welcome! I sorry your sign didn't last, have you contacted member services to discuss this? Mine is also plastic, I attached it with double-sided tape when i joined and it still looks new. I do store it in my garage though. The die-cast aluminum signs had to be either mounted on the ladder or screwed onto the cap.
  5. Wayne I couldn't get on the internet at Shipshewana so I'm too late; we always stay at Musicland RV park in Branson. It's 1 block off highway 77 (hope that''s right) near the West end of the strip..
  6. Most any heavy duty truck repair shop will be qualified to perform the work, including a total alignment. A local HDT repair shop aligned my MH for $300. The rear axle was out of alignment by 3/4". Driving was vastly improved and I'm averaging 1/2 mpg more.
  7. This is referred to as the radiator sandwich because it can contain as many as 5 cooling- radiators; engine coolant, charged-air cooling radiator, transmission cooling radiator, hydraulic oil cooling radiator, (and if separate) power steering cooling radiator. Between these radiators exists approx. a 1" gap that easily collects leaves and oil droplets from the engine collect dirt and road grime.
  8. Check the linkage behind this panel, it's possible something has slipped out of adjustment.
  9. Then your thread title requires updating. Congratulations on your purchase.
  10. Hopefully this picture is legible when you zoom in. The link Jim posted fully explains though:
  11. You mentioned steps; is that working OK? If not, here is the Kwikee Product Service Training manual that covers all models, and includes the testing procedure.

    New Batteries

    IMO all that is required is enough capacity to overnight without power in an emergency. I have a 2, 12V deep cycle battery house bank which suffices when we must overnight at PFJ or WM because I became too tired to safely drive further.. If you decide to modify your house battery bank, take a picture first so the next owner has a record of the OEM configuration.
  13. Airstream made FWD motorhomes, as did GMC and Revcon. Did you know Airstream also made a hearse?
  14. Mine are near the roofline on port-side of MH mounted with double-sided tape. Some mount the rear one on the ladder (specific brackets are sold for this)
  15. Wayne said it best, I agree. Nothing was added to the conversation by taking cheap shots. We are free to think as we choose, but everyone here agreed to follow FMCA discussion forum rules. If one chooses to ignore the rules they should expect consequences.
  16. Just when everything is fixed/ repaired/replaced start thinking about buying something else to fix/repair/replace. Logical?
  17. The thing is, the webpage https://shopfmca.com/shop/ols/products/10th-edition-fmca-road-atlas-travel-guide specifically states to call the the 800 number for purchasers in Canada. Kaysmith you are a stand-up man.
  18. Got it! anti-freeze line has no valve, only a plug/cap.
  19. If you meant to include a hot link or pictures, they are missing -no attachments.
  20. That was during the time I thought winterizing the ice maker was necessary_.😖 Those filters are $48 ea.🤢
  21. Wireless trailer brake controllers are available, nothing like that for a towed vehicle though.
  22. Is the entire cabinet loose or is the slide room tilting in the opening? Is the slide room tight evenly all-around against the RV when retracted?
  23. Herman, funny thing about ice maker carbon water filters; they will make RV anti-freeze clear as water_. Humm- Humm.
  24. contact https://www.rvadenver.com/HARDWARE-s/107.htm with your picture.
