What did you do to your Class A MH today???
This is always a fun thread to watch, so I thought I would start one here.

Here is a catch up post. When I brought the coach out of storage in September I noted a failed wiper seal on the passenger side front slideout. For a variety of reasons including travel with grandson and personal travel overseas this did not get dealt with until the end of January (the coach was back in storage October through December). We resumed living aboard on January 3 and within the week we went through very cold temps in Northern VA (as low as 4 overnight). I did not note any failures as a result of the cold, AT THAT TIME.
In Florida the Precision Temp tankless water heater began spewing water through the flow gauge face. Diagnosis from Gary at PT, the freeze preventer had turned on as called for, but failed to turn off, a known issue, overheating the flow gauge and causing it to distort. With his guidance I took the flow gauge apart and reassembled it which eliminated the immediate issue of no water in the coach (heater bypass valve is useless), however the spraying water had taken out the gas control board. Precision Temp shipped me both required parts no charge! Since I was having the seal (from the first paragraph)repaired at La Mesa in Sanford, I elected to have them install the new card and replace the suspect flow gauge.
While waiting for the parts,the water system started throwing black sand into every filter and screen on the coach. Diagnoses by me, the house filter had been damaged by the freeze back a month prior and was adding its carbon to the water flow. Simple project to replace the filter and clear the strainers on all the sinks. Unfortunately the kitchen sink did not clear as easily. The stuff had clogged the diverter valve for the spray hose. I crawled under the sink and tried to clean the diverter as recommended on the Pfister web site. It got better but not good enough. Talked to their tech and they sent out new diverter and new faucet core, no charge, lifetime warranty! I crawled back under the sink and replaced the diverter (2 minute job the second time). La Mesa installed the rest of the parts AND the seal and we were off to chilly Alabama, Summerdale that is, where I have washed the coach, finally, changed out the battery on one of my TPMS sensors and added a ROKU box to my entertainment options.
Sorry about the long list, hmmm... sorry it was so long :( but we're having fun.
