Norcold RV refrigerator works great, but has kind of a chemical-sweet stench in the fridge compartment. The smell gets into any food that's not sealed up tight. I'm running it on electric, afraid to try it on gas :) It varies in strength; seems to be that the smell is worse when the outside temp...

2004 Winnebago Adventurer with 2 slides -- Haven't had any luck finding this info.  Pulled the ratty old carpet out of the "living room"; it was pretty easy to twist and pull the edge of the carpet that was tucked under the edge of the front slide (this front slide moves down level with the rest...

I've always had a problem being *consistent*. Well, then on top of that, I can't even find a good combination of raw/homemade food for him. And I worry that they're not getting all the nutrients they need, and then I get super busy and get knocked out of what little routine I had going. So I'm...

My poor old dog. He's always been a little prone to digestive issues, but until I became an RV-full-timer a year ago, he always had a doggy-door to go outside. He's eleven years old now, and I'm afraid it's not gonna get any better... The last couple weeks, a short trial of a new kibble and...

Mud finally dried up some, and AAA sent a guy who actually knew what he was doing. One-ton truck and a winch, and he slowly pulled this big MH several feet, back onto the gravel driveway. Easy as pie, after his truck slipped just a little bit in the gravel. What I thought was really smart was...

Still waiting for the mud to dry - after it finally started raining enough to make a tiny difference in this massive drought! Fortunately, I have the time for the RV to sit there. I sure thank you wise guys here! I'm such a worrywart, especially about things I know nothing about... Too many...

I parked in just exactly the wrong place in the RV park - rear drive wheel on top of where a little water line ran. Water line broke a few hours later, and the tire is down in the mud up to the wheel. Once the mud dries, would it be possible/safe to use the HWH jacks to raise up the Class A...

One of the jacks came up by itself, and then I saw that one of the cats around here must've crawled up under the hood and tipped the lever on one of the solenoids. Went to turn the system on and retract all of them, and there's no lights at all, not when I push the "on" button, no lights in the...

After reading a bunch of posts from people whose fresh-water tanks are also always filling even when it's on "city-fill", I somehow decided to put a shut-off valve in the hose coming out the other end of the filter that's directly connected to the water pump on the other end. Turned the water...

thanks. The coach lurched to the side while I was pushing the buttons. The jacks are extended pretty far in the front; the front passenger tire has a little air under it and the driver side tire is barely touching the pavement. That freaked me out when it "fell over". The fluid level has been...

Major hassles with the jacks in the five months I've had this Winnebago motorhome... This latest RV mechanic -- after the circuit board and three defective solenoids were replaced (one for the second time) -- says the jacks are working perfectly now. I thought these jacks were supposed to make...

Well, I needed to defrost the freezer anyway. Put everything back together and plugged it back in. Hope I didn't mess something up; it's been several minutes (on A/C power), and the compressor still isn't running, as far as I can tell....

Not enough room in the freezer, and it sounded like it should be fairly easy to remove the ice maker. Well. Got it off the freezer wall, and there is no wiring harness visible to unplug. Might be further under more pieces of the unit... Took the side cover off the ice maker, and still no way to...

Mike - I sent them your email thank you!

My 3-yr-old Fuzzy Baby (aka Jemmy) always had a handy doggy door in the house. She didn't like the abrupt change to the motorhome, especially because she couldn't go outside. I felt so bad for her, but didn't let her out for awhile because of the safety issues. Did nervously let her out after a...
