Paul & Jim
Try this.
1-set your component box to Sat on the vcr recording buttons.
2-on your sound system push the selector button untill screen shows VCR.
3-put tv on channel 3

You can play the sat. or tv thru your theater system just by playing thru vcr. just select what you want on the vcr record section of your switch box.
Good Luck
Eddie

Paul, Hello again! I called Fleetwood CS Monday as directed by the Service Mgr. at my dealer and they told me to have an evaluation done by my dealer and if they felt it was a manufacturing problem i.e. lack of adhesive on the panel, they would take care of it. I immediatly called the Mgr. back and he said it already sounded like a manufacturing issue over the phone so it sounds like it will happen. Stephanie, also check the strainer next to the pump. I had a similar problem recently and actually had to go to my local RV supply house to see how and if the strainer is opened. It twists off after you break the taped side's and clean out the basket. Mine had all sorts of gunk and shreads of plumbers tape caught impeding the flow.

Check your water pump to see if is working like it should be. We had to get ours replaced this summer when in Florida. The water pump was only working on low and was not going to high pressure when needed. The water pump has a two year warranty and they sent a repairman to our site and replaced it.

Make sure your city water by-pass valve is FULLY closed located in your utility compartment. Or check to see that both of the out side shower valves are FULLY closed!!! That should do it!!!

We have a 2004 37c and love it. There have been some odd type warranty stuff, but they have faithfully fixed it or at least tried to. Our toilet does not always hold water. Seems to come and go.. They have replaced the whole toilet for us, but it still seems to have its own little decision on when to hold water and when not to.
A new for us problem is that all of a sudden, my water pump has reduced water to a trickle. Thought I was simply out of water, but not true. Anyone have good ideas about what is happening.
We faithfully run the generator a couple of hours a month. Generally scheduling cleaning at that point. Like all coaches, those stupid light brown solid carpets show everything, so we shampoo the carpet coming off of a long trip. We have 13,000 miles, so we have been using it quite heavily. Some long trips, others are our lets go to a baseball game, etc. type long weekends.

Call Fleetwood Company (customer relations not where you bought the P/A) and talk to them about your ceiling. I am almost two years out of warranty and they are still fixing things. Be NICE and explain what the problem is and why you think they should fix it out of warranty.

Example: The seam on my driver seat was coming lose and I just told them about it and that I am not a heavy duty type person and I felt that it was a bad seat. I was way over the year warranty and they told me to take it to a Fleetwood service center and they would fix it.

Bird Freak -

Ditto what Paul just said. Please give us step by step detailed instructions. In my case I'm mostly interested in playing the DirecTivo throught the surround sound system.

Thanks in advance!

All you have to do is run it thru your vcr and set your reciever on vcr. It will play the tv or sat reciever that way. Had to have the pdi guy at the lot show me. EASY!!! no rewiring.

You need to get behind the TV and run wires from the TV and/or Dish Receiver into the DVD/Surround Sound system. You'll need help, but it's worth it.

New problem I discovered this past weekend: The vinyl cieling on my '05 Pace is starting to detach at two points. As you can imagine, I'm 2 weeks out of warranty, any advise?

[jandn73]

Has anyone figured out a way to get the TV to play through the surround sound system? DVD's are no problem but satellite and over the air is a mystery. Maybe the capability is not there?
