Re: Schwintek slide jammed - shifted back
Download manual from Schwintek for the slide. There are two things in the manual that can help you out. There is an overide procedure you can use which may help to get the slide moving again. There is a process that describes how to unlock the motors so you can push the slide out. If it were me, I would not try pushing to hard on that slide without checking out the "how to" in the manual first. Also, if I recall correctly, there are error codes on the controller that may be of help. I have a copy of the manual and remember seeing these in the manual but my copy of the manual is in the trailer, in storage, and not readily available; or I would give you further details. But such as it is, this is the best I can do for you.57Views0likes0CommentsRe: National General Insurance - BAD
Two things you can do: The insurance company has an appeals process ~ appeal the decision. Call your states insurance commissioner and ask them to look into it. The problem is, rodents chewing on wires may not be covered “animal damage” in the policy. I don’t know, but the insurance commissioner should. And if it is covered, he/she can get-er-done.45Views0likes0CommentsRe: my propane generator won't start
My bad, all the propane gas equipment I worked around (including generators) had filters on the fuel line to remove contaminants. I didn’t realize the low wattage generators apparently are lacking such protection. If it’s the air cleaner causing the issue; it must be working in an unusually dirty environment or needs a better filtering system.92Views0likes0CommentsRe: Salvage Value?
I don’t know where you live but a lot of auto salvage yards around us also take RV’s. The reality is, that the salvage value is depressing low. While there is value in the “stuff” in around the RV, there’s also a lot of labor and a lot of “no value waste” which renders the ROI minimal. Trade it in, scrap it, either way it’s going to be minimal; enjoy the memories and move on.74Views1like0CommentsRe: Quick connect exterior shower hose doesn't connect.
I have the same type of connection on my RV and have the same difficulties plugging into the coupler. Unfortunately I know of no easy solution. The only real solution is to get to the back of the coupler on the inside of the RV and replace the connector (presumably with something better). I would consider putting a small utility connection box on the side of my trailer - similar to the ones the use for washing machines in houses.66Views0likes0Comments
