RECENTLY BOUGHT A USED KEYSTONE 339 FWSLS 2007

Hey guys, I recently bought a used 2007 339 FWSLS triple slide Keystone Copper Canyon, and I am not able to find a lot of info on it. Even on the Keystone web site. I am hoping that you guys could chime in and fill in the gaps.

Some of the things I would like to know are: what does the FWSLS stand For. I believe part of it is for fifth wheel and probably something on slides. Also, how many gallons does each of the holding tanks hold? How much the RV sold for new if anyone knows would be nice to know.

In the line of Keystone products, where does the Copper Canyon fall? I have one switch for the three slide outs and when running them in or out, they stop for a moment and I have to let off the switch before starting again. My RV repair shop said that was standard for a RV with one switch for all three. Is that true, or do I have a problem?

I have researched the forum here and find a lot of people are switching from the day/night shades to other types. What do you guys recommend?

I have an older ten plus year old Honda Gen 3000 with inverter that I have not used since I bought it used ten years ago. Fired her up and she runs good. Hooked it to the RV and only turned on the A/C and left the onboard inverter on and she ran the A/C pretty good. Leaving in about a week for a three month trip up to Idaho, Mt, WY, UT, NV, and probably Calif. I know that at altitude she may not do a great job. What are your thoughts there?

Thanks guys for any info you can give me. I know that in the next few days I will have more questions, but these will help. In the past I have been RVing for fifty years, but the last ten I have been out of it. So, trying to relearn if it possible for an old brain.

Thanks,

Tom
  • Your slides stopping and starting are simply a weak breaker. They are heat triggered and when it gets too hot it shuts down for 5 seconds or so until it cools then automatically resets itself. Follow your battery cable and it will lead to it. Simple fix...won't hurt anything if you leave it as is either.

    Thanks for the link DTR, but I can't get it to work. For the rest of you guys, all great info, please keep it coming. Regarding the tires, they were the originals, but looked like new. But, I did spend $1,600 and bought five new Michelins I believe they were G rated. LT 235/85R 16 XPS Ribs.

    Again, thanks for all the info guys and please keep it coming.

  • I have a 2006 Copper Canyon very similar to yours. All my holding tanks and the fresh water tank are 45 gallon. A word of caution. The fifth wheel hitch on mine started breaking away from the rest of the trailer frame. Take a flashlight and shine it up into the openings around the fifth wheel hitch. I had 4 broken welds each about 4 inches long. This is a not uncommon Lippert frame failure.
