got a new camper

4th day out in the 1062., we are loving it. The only thing I really have to do is put a max air or fantastic fan over the range. The tiny oem bathroom vent fan just can not do the job when cooking.

I feel so inferior. I only have one and it's not even working now. :)

I took the opportunity of getting the new Lance to upgrade my rearview camera system from analog to digital and from 2 cameras to 3, both systems are wireless.
the first 2 cameras stay the same one above the back door of the camper, the second inside the horse trailer to watch the horses as we travel. The new 3rd camera will be on the back of the horse trailer so no blind spots for lane changes and great for backing into tight spots. All cameras have milspec night vision.

You may want to flush with hydrogen peroxide. Kills algae spores at a low concentration

loading it up for a 5 day trip up to the Mendocino Coast of California, We head out Wednesday morning.

buzzcut1: Congratulations on the new to you Lance 1062! That unit has an excellent floorplan.

my understanding is that this camper had been sitting unused in storage since early 2000 and who knows when and where the last water fill came from.

the fridge issue was a bad thermister. Holding at 35 with the new one in place. Lost water pressure. Another easy fix. Camper had been sitting for a while and they did not drain the fresh tank, Algae totally pugged the pre water pump strainer. cleaned that out Clorox bombed the water system, multiple times with a bunch of fill, add clorox, drive to shake the water everywhere let sit for a day drain, repeat, then do multiple fills and drain plus flush the hose lines to clear the clorox and gunk out of the system.

Never seen algae in the freshwater system before. I do fill my fresh system with Seattle city water after each trip knowing it might be a while before we head out again. There is zero light getting to the tank and water system. I guess the chlorinated city water stores well and prevents growth

Thanks for posting the solution.
