Re: Suburban water heater issue
Not an uncommon problem on the AC side of this model water heater. Replace the thermostat, wire and the ON/OFF switch. You will need to remove the ON/OFF switch to replace the wire. You can just pry the ON/OFF switch out for the outside. I use a cotter pin removal tool with the 90 degree end. Don't worry about damaging the switch since you are replacing it. The switch is under AMP rated in my opinion and I see lots of burned terminals, just like the wire end on the thermostat.293Views0likes0CommentsRe: A rant about common courtesy to your neighboring campers

I find the Thetford Aqua Magic Style II to be a very troublesome toilet. I have received dozens of calls with the complaint being the pedal does not return to the full up position and the water continues to run. I have only limited success replacing the water valve. Within a few weeks or months I get called back out to work on it again. My suggestion is to replace this toilet with a Thetford Aqua Magic Style Plus with the center pedal flush and the china bowl. This one is about $75 to $100 more but is a much better toilet. Make sure you have enough room behind the existing toilet because the Thetford Aqua Magic Style Plus takes a little more room. If you can't do this, don't fix the one you have, replace it with a new one.225Views0likes0CommentsRe: Hot Water heater question
You can also pull one of the black wires off of the gas valve solenoid located just above the 120VAC Electric ON/OFF switch on the outside of the Suburban water heater This removes the ground for one of the solenoids and no LP gas will flow if you accidentally turn the water heater LP switch on.230Views0likes0Comments
