What did they do?

What did they say needed to be done to the Ford chassis?

I'm going to take a wild guess based upon a less than perfect memory. Some BFs (mine included) have a "stealth" circuit breaker under the sink on the right hand panel. It's a box with a red button on the front. If your's has this, try pressing the button to reset the breaker. I think that ...

I wouldn't! I have seen exhaust extension systems that carry the
generator exhaust up and away from the camper body. That would
be my choice.

Hi Tom.... I'd like to help but your account is lacking in details. Did the antenna connector unscrew or was the cable pulled out of the connector? Why was the power cable replaced? Is it an AC or DC power cable? Where and how does the power cable connect to the RV? What power source does the DVD pl...

This is one of those things for which there is no good answer. What is needed is a nationwide reciprocity law just like for drivers licenses. Having said that, in over 50 years of driving in all 50 states and western Europe (in military) both in autos and RVs, I have NEVER had my vehicle searched! A...

You might also want to consider one that has a built-in DVD player.

It wasn't me with the wedges, Nathan. I just used some styrofoam. I agree
the wedges sound like a good idea and will try to find some for the upcoming season.

Hi Nathan... I had the same concerns you have. I also had no idea how to remove the refrigerator. I would have liked to use a backing plate but it just seemed like too much work. Instead, I use the largest wood screws that would fit through the mounting holes on the arm. The arm I used has adjustabl...

I forgot to mention that this is an AC powered TV. I looked at all the 12 volt DC TV sets I could find on the web and found they were very expensive and not rated highly. I have a small 300 watt inverter to power the TV when shore power isn't available. This TV also has a built-in DVD - CD player. I...

"I can say this, however about the 2011 roofs: While I was waiting for the Dodgens and Grandson Brandon to return from supper, I climbed the rear ladder of the 27' coach to have a look around as there was still daylight when I arrived at the RV park in Caddo Mills, Texas. There are now very cop...

I am planning to install an amateur radio tranceiver in my BF and I'm
having a difficult time tracing the wiring. I'm interested in the battery,
isolator, disconnect switch and converter wiring. Is there a diagram
available?

Bill... I only intended this suggestion for a power connection. There is a Powerpole chassis mount that will snap into a 1" X 1.25 " hole. Looking at my old Braund wallplate it looks like it would be pretty easy to cut the proper hole in the plate and remove the existing crummy receptacle ...

I hate these type of connectors for handling power! My choice would be Anderson Powerpoles. These come in a wide assortment of current handling capacities and mounting styles. See: http://www.powerwerx.com/anderson-powerpoles/accessories/ for some examples. I think you can probably find something he...

Thanks for the replies to my post. It was not at all clear to me from reading my manual that the lavatory was plumbed to the black water tank. The only place that has this info is the gray water piping diagram. I know! Everyone should study the electrical and plumbing diagrams before using their RV....
