Replacement forward Dome Vent Cover for my Minnie?
Hi guys. My Minnie is in storage a couple of hundred miles away and I was told the forward roof vent cover got ripped off by a storm. I need to go replace it, but I want to order the part before I go. I was wondering if anyone here has a similar model to mine and can tell what the right part is to order? My Minnie is a 1999 WF322R. According to parts catalog, the part number is: 122882-01-01A. But when I do a search for this part number, nothing comes up.3.5KViews0likes8CommentsRe: Best In-dash nav and camera system for Minnie Winnie?

I don't know entirely why this may be, but I do know that the Vermont vehicle safety inspection requires there to be an inside rear view mirror, even in vehicles where there is no rear window. You won't pass inspection without one. I firmly believe it is impossible to overestimate the collective stupidity of a bureaucracy. Well, I think I put it to good use though. Check out what I installed in its place in this how-to video. How to install the AutoVox 2 rearview mirror monitor system.687Views0likes0CommentsRe: How to fix "Vent stuck on Defrost" Minnie Winnie.

On wide open throttle conditions, or long up hills the engine doesn't have enough vacuum to operate the a/c blend doors. hence the reservoir. True, but it works most of the time with no problems and the low vacuum goes away fast. Plus, as I said in the video, you can add the vacuum pot under the dash very simply now that the T-Valve is located in an easy to get to location under the dash. I have one on order and will add it when it arrives. But the fact is, it is not necessary for the system to work.155Views0likes0CommentsHow to fix "Vent stuck on Defrost" Minnie Winnie. Video
Hi Guys. So, the vent control on my Minnie Winnie was stuck on defrost. It took me a while to find the problem because the issue was in an inaccessible area sandwiched between the firewall and the fender well. After discovering that it was cost over a $1000 dollars to have this problem fixed by a mechanic, I did a lot of research and I figured out how to fix this problem in less than 30 minutes for about 25 cents worth of tape. I made a video of this drop-dead simple process so that other people can save themselves a lot of time and money. Here is a link to the video.

Can I change the valve or do they require that to be done by a certified propane technician? On a side note, how do I post pictures here? I have tried linking to DropBox, Flicker, and Google Photos. None of them show up. Has to be done by a 'qualified' propane supplier. Interestingly, I get my (bottle) (tank) filled by the same company that fills my 1000 gallon bottle I heat my home with and he has various OPD valves in the shop to fit about anything made. Done a couple refits and he's never charged me a cent. Don't believe you can buy them anyway unless you are in that business. never seen them at least. Thanks. I have a 250 gal Nurse tank for my home, so I can fill the RV bottle myself when at home. I already do it for my 20lb grill and RV bottles, so I should never have to go to a supplier. I just got worried when I saw the rough shape of the tank itself.692Views0likes0CommentsRe: Propane Tank on my Minnie. Should I replace it?
