    Docking Lights?

    I added LED off road lights and wired them into my backup lights. I may have over done it a bit, so don't stare into the he back of my coach at night. You'll go blind!  I've actually had campers complain when parking at night.

    Winnebago solar factory package?

    This may be a mute point for the author of this thread, but his suggestion of the use of adhesive to mount panel brackets has credence. It is apparently now common to use automotive 3M VHB (very high bond) double sided tape coated with either dicor or sikaflex to mount panels on the roofs of...

    [Fixed] Bad news - FW tank is leaking

    John - Maybe I can help you for once (or at least give you a positive outlook on your issue).  I had the exact same problem about a year ago. As you know, my caoch is one year older than yours, so the timing is impeccable. My issue turned out to be the valterra slide valve, and after accessing...

    Need suggestions on A/C brands and suppliers for auxiliary roof air addition....

    Had the same challenges with my basement air last season. Works but challenged. Put a Dometic into one of my fan vents, and I decided to go with a 13.5K unit that I could actually run off a 20 amp circuit if need be. Also purchase the electrical 'heat bar' (not heat pump) to take the chill off...

    HWH Vertical Slide Adjustment; itasca horizon 40aD

    Another try.  Had to email a smaller copy to myself. Kind of dark in center, but it's Allen.

    HWH Vertical Slide Adjustment; itasca horizon 40aD

    The center is Allen of some kind, and obviously the outer part is a bolt. My understanding from the HWH literature is that this is the vertical adjustment. The slide is only detectably misaligned when closed, and the nylon doesn't seem to be substantially worn (and looks the same as the other...

    HWH Vertical Slide Adjustment; itasca horizon 40aD

    One side of my 'flat floor' slide is too low by about 3/16 of an inch (as measured by a misalignment in the exterior graphics). Found HWH documentation on how to adjust, but the vertical adjustment bolt seems to have some sort of Allen wrench locking center hub that I'm not sure how to deal with...

    Sounds like fun. Thanks!

    Glacier NP travel route recommendations

    Thanks! I am correct in assuming that the 'Going to the Sun' road is different from highway 2, correct?  Doesn't sound like a road for a largish DP. Wikipedia: '"The two lane Going-to-the-Sun Road is quite narrow and winding with hairpin turns, especially west of Logan Pass. Consequently...

    Wasn't expecting snow as a possibility. Don't tell my wife!

    Glacier NP travel route recommendations

    Will be going from Mackinaw, MI through Teddy Roosevelt NP to West Glacier, MT in mid-September. Is highway 2 manageable in a 40 ft diesel (350 HP, Cat C7) w/toad? Will be going on further south to West Yellowstone, MT.  Suggestions appreciated!

    Sometimes the key fob doesn't work

    I had this issue with a used fob I picked up for my itasca. Turns out it's oxidation of the rubber contacts inside. Fortunately these can be repaired with this kit. Also look it up on YouTube as its a bit tricky to apply. CaiKote 44 Kit, includes swabs and brushes silver-based 1.0 - K-CK44-G...

    Ready to replace basement ac/heat pump

    Can someone fix the link to the manual above? It's the same as the first one linking to replacement compressors. Would appreciate a link to the service manual. Thanks!

    Remco aquajet 55-aquajet ARV water pump adjustment?

    Just a little closure on this thread for others with issues. I've become semi-knowledgable about RV fresh water pumps since having my Shurflo Extreme Series Smart Sensor 5.7 5900-0201 pump go out. It turns out that will many have had issues with this pump, it's a special one with the wonderful...
