Re: freshwater pump maddening problem
I am not familiar with your model. BUT, I have 45 years as an RV tech. MY FIRST impression when a customer has your problem and there are NO leaks on the ground or in the RV, is indeed a possible pump, especially over 15 years old. BUT, do you have a City water, water tank fill valve? Most RV's (motorhomes) do. The 2nd option I look at when your problem happens is the City water tank fill valve is leaking internally and the pump is just cycling and putting water back into the tank. Shurflo builds an excellent Pump, The odds are to get a new pump with the same problem is extremely rare.1.7KViews1like0CommentsRe: atwood 8525-iv-dclp furnace Issue
That is not called a flame CB. It is a Circuit Breaker for the electrical system of the furnace. How soon does it trip? 3 things usually trip the CB. BAD furnace motor or motor cannot turn due to insect nests on the impellors stopping the fan from turning and last a shorted wire inside the furnace usually at the furnace heat casing that a wire has melted.

1. remove the gas orifice and blow out. 2. Remove the metal exhaust cover and roll a golf ball down from the top. This will tell you if the flame exhaust tube has any restrictions(insect nests) which can cause your problem. You CANNOT see this and you use the golf ball to determine if obstruction. 3. Make sure that you remove the burner flue and run a nylon brush thru it to remove any possible spider nest residue. The smallest residue can cause your problem. 4. Last, proper air mixture is critical for your type problem. Adjust as needed to get a loud blue roaring flame. Doug1.3KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Lifestyle RV Frame and Slide out diagrams
You just joined. ALWAYS post Year Brand and Model of RV. You will NOT find what you are looking for as to frames. The slideout systems are built by other suppliers and those are probably still in existance. Those suppliers usually have on line part and diagnosis manuals. So, you need to determine what brands Slideouts you have. Some RV makers used 2 different suppliers for models with multiple rooms.

2004 Mandalay should have HWH slide systems. This link shows the pic of the Nylon glide. I don't know if HWH still supplies the shorter Nylon glide or you have to purchase the 8 foot piece and cut and drill the counter sunk holes for your particular fit.

I think it's a glitch in the software. I checked today temp was 50 degrees no warning. Thats why I stated that the error is a KNOWN issue. Contac Keystone or ASA to find out if they have a software update. Did you not see what I posted from ASA's website about your problem? Doug853Views1like0CommentsRe: E2 Warning
