Just installed a new camper side plug because the old one was damaged. Connecting everything right, camper was drawing power from the truck yesterday when I left home. Last night and today, no dice. The driving lights all work, so the plug’s not the ...
So, my fridge pooped out on my last trip. Works great on shore power and on battery, but no good on propane.I checked the burner, it's nice and clean and burning blue flame as it should. Everything else seems ok, but the danged thing won't cool. Nor ...
Here’s the deal: I replaced my old, burned out water heater with a new Dometic. It fires up, stays lit, and works great as long as the outside hatch is ajar or fully open. As soon as I shut it and latch it, the heater is starved of O2 and sputters ou...
