And of course you have plenty of propane? If you have both 12V and propane, then start looking for issues within the water heater like the thermal fuse or bad gas valve or loose wire or faulty ignitor board and so forth.Re: Shurflo 4008 RV Revolution by pass pumpPossibly a defective pump. My old one last fall wouldn't always shut off so I replaced it with a new one and it fixed the problem.Re: Will this battery minder work for me? Dennis M M wrote: That will work fine to maintain, not charge, but it can be done a lot cheaper! I used this solar panel and a Battery Tender controller along with 20 feet of wire and a couple of quick disconnects. I have four 950 amp cold crank batteries in the truck. So far it works fine to maintain them, after about a month it still has not charged them up enough for a green light on the controller, but last time I hooked it up the batts were showing 12.5 volts and when I disconnected to use the truck it was at 12.9 volts, so the solar charger is doing the trick. I've used a 120 volt Battery Tender to maintain the batts for years, but next winter the truck will be sitting in the AZ sun with no electrical available, so I wanted to put this charger together. That's only a 6W solar panel, about what my coach came equipped with to trickle-charge the chassis batteries. Was hoping the 15W panel I linked too could charge the house batteries but from what others posted it sounds like the 15W panel would struggle to do so.Re: Will this battery minder work for me?Let's try this. batteryminders.com/12-volt-solar-charger-maintainer-desulfator-panel-scc-015Re: Will this battery minder work for me?Why do my links get removed? Is it a newby thing? What is the waiting time before I can use new links?Will this battery minder work for me?My coach has 4 6-volt deep cycle batteries. Will this 15W solar powered SCC015 batterMINDer be worthy of keeping the batteries up to snuff? My coach sits outside 365 days a year so might as well make the sun do some of the work. Here is a link to the manufacturer's website (if it doesn't get removed). ***Link Removed***Re: Replacing original tv in 2002 Tiffin ZephyrIf the old TV is in a cabinet-type space, a new TV often won't fit there unless you want a really small one. In my 2000 Newmar I took out the old tv, put a board across the front of the cabinet, then mounted a newer bigger tv to that board. The TV hides the board well so it looks pretty good.Re: Dometic Awning with LED light stripNot sure why my link was removed. A newbie thing I suppose.Re: Dometic Awning with LED light stripThis rope light works pretty slick. Slides into the groove an an awning tube. Or do what I did. I added another piece of awning track underneath my existing awning track and slid the rope in it. That way it could also be wired-up permanently. ***Link Removed***Re: What are dealer labor rates in your area.Got a couple small-shop guys that charge $69 an hour in Aberdeen, SD. Otherwise it's $100-$125/hour.
