A little rant, a fair warning and some incredible numbers. I’ll start with the rant which is about a speed camera citation issued in the Youngstown,Ohio area and mailed to my home in Conway,Sc. I grew up, worked and retired in a small town in western Pennsylvania exit 53 of I-80. Anytime the DW...

I was just bit by this same issue, lots of hot water in the tank but none getting to any of my fixtures. Bad check valve on the outlet of the hot water tank. Replaced check valve and good to go. On mine there’s an access panel on the back of the bay to let you get at it. A 1” deep well socket...

We always used copper wool in the communication industry for plugging entrance cables backed by duct seal. Like this product. We were briefly frog members and had that problem with a ?16 TT. After opening some of the normally inaccessible areas behind the furnace and breaker panel I used the...

Thanks and I should have added, they?re is a lot of negative threads online about using suction cups on fiberglass gel Coat. I?ll just be sticking mine to the upper glass on the drivers side and feeding the coax through the slide seal.

I?ll be the first to admit, I?m a bit of a pack rat when it comes to some things. But sometimes the end justifies the means and I?m not about to change course at this stage of my life. A while back DW came to me with her broken apple peeler and asked if I could fix it. Not being one to admit...

Haven?t got back into the lift problem. It did work about the same plugged into 50A at the campground Tues/Wed night. Coming home the ABS light came on and now it?s at a local shop waiting on a speed sensor for the right front.

Best money I?ve  spent on GPS was back in 2011 when a full timer in a CG introduced me to Bad Elf and an iPad running the Copilot app. Bad Elf is a small chip less than an inch square that docks onto an iPad or iPhone ( I use an iPad mini I picked up on Craigslist for $100). It uses no data or...

We?ll ,I think it fixed itself, or not. Actually I?m thinking it?s a current thing or lack there of. Coach is in the back yard plugged into 30A power. When I go in to work on other upgrades First thing in the morning, it runs up and down like it should. Later in the day after having the lights...

The Tv lift in my 2011 Adventurer 37F is not retracting the whole way down into the cabinet. I just replaced the old RCA with a new smart Tv which is a fraction of the weight. Worked fine with the old Tv. It?s a 3 stage lift but I?m unable to find any info online or in my manuals as to the...

Been going thru things on our new to us ?11 Adventurer and I?m wrestling with the 2 AC units. Zone 1 appears to cool better than zone 2. Neither were draining condensation water through the pump lines, just dripping off the roof from the pans. Pulled the covers,cleaned coils, the gummed up mesh...

The 2 Jensen?s 1 outside and 1 in the bedroom along with an RCA in the living room all receive OTA fine but no cable signal. The Jensen?s are HD but apparently don?t have the QAM tuner. I?ve got the antenna booster turned off which I?m intending to replace with the Sensar Proscan. Have the same...

Live and learn. And for those keeping score, it takes 2 ata boys to make up for one ahh sh_t.

After a year of searching, we just bought a pristine 2011 Adventurer 37F with 21k mi.  The original Jensen Tv?s work great over the air but here in Myrtle Beach area the cable company just went to an all digital format making them useless on cable. Wandering if anyone has removed the outside tv...

Thanks for the link and the advice, in the end, upgrade options are added $$$ adding to the book value. We?ll go have a look, run it thru it?s paces, haggle over the price and go from there.

Looking at buying a 37F out of state and the owner can?t find the build sheet showing the options added to the coach. He has a sheet showing the serial#,vin# and a list of components,manufacturers,model,ser#s on the unit. My guestion is whether there?s a website I can go to and plug in the vin...
