Thanks again Bill !

Is there an internal cooling fan inside my breaker panel? It seems like about every 45 minutes I hear a very faint fan come on, and notice a slight breeze coming from my breaker box. It runs about 2-3 minutes, then shuts off. It does this during the Winter, Summer, Spring & Fall. I guess my real...

Per the recommendations from Bill & Chuck...my '99 BF now handles like a brand new RV. I was SHOCKED :shock: when I opened the box for the new sway bars and saw the size of them...especially compared to the stock ones ! I've had my BF since Oct. and have to admit, I've been very hesitant to driv...

Chuck.....WOW !!! Between you and Bill, y'all are making my life so much simpler !!! :D Not only did you show me exactly what I need...but you found it at a considerable savings !!! This definitely moves you up to "my new best friend" category :lol: Seriously....thanks to both of you, I'm ...

OH MAN....yet ANOTHER thing to sit and worry about while cruising down the highway (I have a very active imagination) :shock: I just now found this post and wouldn't you know it....last week I bought that same exact lock...at Wal Mart no less !!! Did you contact Reese, or did you go a different rout...

"I don’t regret a single penny spent on our Hellwig front and rear sway bars." Chuck, I want to change out my sway bars and see your recommendation for Hellwig. I've gone online and being an old racer, I see that Summit Racing sells them. Of course there are several different places and se...

Using the water pump is the method that I have been using. I just thought there would be a somewhat larger drain than those little-bitty brass valves. I live down on the Gulf Coast of Texas...so freezing is a rarity (although we did have one day of freezing weather a few weeks ago)...so winterizing ...

Thanks for the info Bill ! So THAT'S what all those little brass valves are !!! I was looking for something a little more "substantial" in size. Like I said - they were right in front of me :shock: No...I never did check my light issue. I pulled down my handy-dandy voltmeter and the batter...

Thanks for the follow-up Bill. Typical of me...I've capped off the overhead fixture and am basically ignoring the problem until another time. Right now, my new favorite topic has shifted to flushing the water system (which I don't think has ever been done). Is there a low-point drain for the water t...

Where's the fun in that?....I'm kidding of course.
You are correct. I'll be checking things over before I dive-off into this job.
Thanks for the input.
David

Bill, thanks for your input. I know for a FACT that there is no power going to the light fixture. I could not find my voltmeter, so, with the switch on, I "manned-up" and grabbed the wires. My hair didn't ignite, so I think it's safe to say that there was no power :lol: As soon as I get in...

ShilohDad, thanks for the info. I have the 26' President Model w/rear bdrm. There are no additional switches that I can find...and I AND my Girlfriend have looked pretty extensively. The more I think about it, the more sense that it makes that my mystery switch and the dead light belong together...I...

1st time motorhome owner of a 1999 Born Free President. :mrgreen: Been finding and fixing aaaalllll kind of "issues"...some are a challenge...some are just a pain. Have discovered that my RV has been involved in an accident...from the rear bumper to the total side-door replacement. Repairs...
