RE: Torklift Glowsteps installed
We finally got a 4 day camp trip in over last weekend and tried out the new steps. Well there a keeper! Wife just absolutely loves them. No more movement in the rv with someone using the steps and there quite. No more sound every time someone steps on them and with all the adjustment you can get the perfect. A+ in my book!https://i.imgur.com/TfUAt3Kl.jpg

RE: Electrical type question
I've sold and repaired thousand's in the course of 30 + years. Something is not right about those numbers. I've never seen a 2.5hp that was capable of being run on 115v or a 2hp for that matter. Is this a above ground pool?

RE: Condensation pan is not draining?
I'm guessing clogged from mud dauber? I've had that happen in the past with several things. I'm just south of you south east Lowell.

RE: Has anybody ... ?
Is the camera powered by a clearance light that blinks with the turn signal? That would be about the only thing I could think of.

RE: Torklift Glowsteps installed
I'm planning on getting a set for our fifth wheel. My wife's arthritic joints don't like the stock steps
We've had our 5th wheel almost 2 years and the DW didn't like ours from the start. Steps was to far apart for her at over 9" step height. I think she's happy with them now.

Torklift Glowsteps installed
Received my Troklift Glowsteps this passed Tuesday and finally got around to installing them Saturday. Removing the old 3 step and installing the new Glowstep took me less than a hour doing it myself. I can say there are very though out and very very well made steps and made in the USA. Adjustability of these step are second to none! No more stepping on the steps and feeling the 5er move. Going from the 3 step with with the step 9" apart to the Glowstep 4 step at just over 7" apart the wife loves them. As seen in the pics there's no way I would have enough room in my storage to use a set of the solid steps. Then today made a set of step carpets for them. Be able to give them a full try out in about 3 weeks on our next camping trip. So far these seem to be exactly what we were wanting and looking for.

RE: 83 30' Southwind parked on hill now won't start
.
Did you check to make sure you're getting a spark? If not, check the coil and ignition module.
Did you check the battery?
OP said it started by pouring fuel into the carb so those wouldn't be the issue.

RE: Water Heater electric element
If element is burnt out......No 120VAC acroos the black/white terminals cause element is burnt out
If the element itself burns out you would still have 120v between the
black and white at the terminal. The element has not control over the power feeding it. Correct me if I'm wrong.

RE: Water Heater electric element
10E version uses DC to control electric and propane
Element might not be bad.....could be:
No DC from circuit board to the DC Relay
(yellow wire should have DC when Electric is selected and water is cold)
DC Relay could be bad
AC wires to/from that Relay could be melted
Element could be burnt out/shorted
DC Relay and Element are on backside of the WH Tank under the protective cover at bottom of tank
How you access depends on your RV....could be via inside a cabinet, removable panel, removable cabinet floor (removable means just stapled in place...pry it open) or even from underneath RV or panel in next compartment
Check for access directly behind where water heater is installed
Wiring..follow the DC

1 1/2" thin wall 6 point socket to remove element if badSo if everything is working normally but the element is burned out will I get 120v across the two terminals on the end.? Or if I take the element out will I get continuity across the two terminals at the top of a good element?
Yes 120v between the two terminals.

RE: Tripod for a new fifth wheel
I had and used one with my old 5er but let it go with it. Our new 5er has the 4 point auto level and don't use one or feel the need for one.

RE: 5th wheel tailgate
I have a Custom Flow for my 02 Ford. Good tailgates but don't use it anymore. There's times when I need the full gate and just got tired of swapping back and forth. So I just stay with the full gate and really not a big deal with my 5er.

RE: Out with the grill
Very well done! Curious as to what finish you used on the drawer. I like it.
Thanks you.
Rust-Oleum hammered black. Not a black as I thought it would be but pretty darn good match.

RE: Out with the grill
Looks like some great work and a useful addition. I am curious what the purpose of the top you put on the drawer. It gets its own top as soon as you close the drawer.
Thank you.
Just as a little extra counter space. We us the area mostly for drinks. With my coffee maker and her countertop ice maker not a whole lot of room left. So the drawer cover with help as a pouring station when needed and underneath store my outside grilling utensils. Just got to remember don't spill the drinks or in the drawer it goes! LOL
