    Are there recalls for the Winnebago Journey slides?

    They are going to tell you to bring it to an Authorized WGO dealership...as many have mentioned bring it to Forest City or even closer to you Junction City, OR....they are your best bet...end of story...

    2004 Suncruiser 35u - house batteries not charging from engine

    As John mentioned more than likely your aux start solenoid has malfunctioned. On our latest trip I did not realize my solenoid had failed until we had some cloudy weather while on the road...I have 960 watts of solar and I run my refrigerator off my inverter while traveling...usually my battery...

    Dash AC Expansion Valve

    I know when the shop repaired my AC they used Freon with dye...if you have a leak I would at least charge the unit with freon/dye and hopefully you can find where it is leaking. On my AC it was quite obvious that there was a leak at the expansion valve. After finishing our 2 month trip in very...

    Refrigerator not working on AC

    Have been doing a lot of testing on the fridge since we returned this week...I checked the AC heating elements and they were good. Tested the thermistor and it was OK. I had a spare ckt board and installed it and no change....even on propane the fridge was still not cooling...was about 52...

    basement AC-I don't think 2nd compressor is working

    Sounds like you have an issue with your Basement AC....only 1 compressor running....could be as simple as a start capacitor...if you go to the Air Excel website you can download the manual for you unit and do some troubleshooting.

    Basement AC Output

    Output register in the ceiling should be 15-20 cooler than what you measure at the return register...have you checked your AC filter to make sure it is not plugged?

    Electric slide out lock squeaks

    I have been hearing a squeaking noise at times coming from the large passenger slide on my Tour. I had my wife try to find out where it was coming from and she believes it is coming from the location where one of the slide locks is located. This slide has 2 electric locks. I know folks have had...

    basement ac loud compressors

    I had my basement AC repaired before our trip out west and it has performed very well to date....big test coming up next weekend as we will be a day in Redding CA (112 degrees) and then to Greenfield CA (101 degrees) for 2 days....

    Roof Air Again!

    After having my basement AC pulled out and repaired I would think that anyone that has basement AC should probably have it pulled out and gone through...most have been in place for a minimum of ~7 years and just cleaning it would more than likely result in better performance...if you can do it...
