Access to water heater
I have a 2008 Coachmen Mirada and I suspect a leak behind the water heater. I had a water line repaired a couple years ago and I think it is leaking again. The mobile RV tech went in to the water heater through the compartment beside the water heater. There's a panel that is loose but I can't figure out how to get it out (and I didn't pay enough attention when he did it). I don't want to break it (it's half inch plywood) but that seems the only way. Please help. thanks.1.2KViews0likes5CommentsRe: Cable TV connection
Well changed the connection box in the compartment. Saw no damage or melting. Seem to think it melted the outside cable when I turned on the amplifier for the roof antenna. I have FIOS in the S&B so can't check. Am going camping on the 17th of May and they have cable hookup. We'll see.519Views0likes0CommentsRe: Cable TV connection
Thanks to everyone for your help. Going out today and see what is up in the motorhome. Been raining and I don't have the luxury of an enclousure. Come to think of it, I did turn on the box for the roof antenna when I first turned on the TV. Maybe that did it? I have to remove and replace the phone/cable connection box anyway since the connection melted it too. Will keep you posted.518Views0likes0CommentsRe: Cable TV connection
Would it make a difference that the cable connection at the post was not grounded? I guess tomorrow after the rain stops I'll go look inside the compartment and behind the connection in the motorhome compartment. What would cause 120 volt to come in contact with the cable coax?518Views0likes0CommentsCable TV connection
Was camping this past weekend and watching cable TV on Friday nite. Got up Saturday morning and had no cable reception. Went outside and the connection on the post was tight. Opened the bay door where the connection is (along with the phone) and the cable was melted. It had gotten so hot that where the connection was made in the box, it had melted that too. Do I have a problem in the motorhome or was the problem with the connection with the post? I have a 2008 Coachmen Mirada. Thanks.3.8KViews0likes10CommentsRe: Coachman Mirada
I have a 2008 350DS and love it. Only thing that has broken was the front entry lock. Was my fault-didn't lubricate when I should have. A costly mistake. Use bunk beds for storage when grandkids don't go with us. Tow a 1999 Jeep Wrangler with a Blue Ox tow bar. No problems with that yet. As above poster stated, mattress in master leaves a lot to be desired. Got another one at the Original Matteress factory. Sleeps good but would love it better if it were a true queen. Bought mine 3d hand for $59000 in 2009 and wouldn't look back.687Views0likes0Comments
