Remotes Wanted

We upgraded 5th wheelers last month and the remote for slides,lights,landing gear awning and tv raise/lower mechanism are missing, previous owners claim they never had them!
Talked to lippert today ,boy they are proud of them and can't buy just the remote for tv raise/lower mechanism! Was hoping someone may have one or both in a drawer somewhere?
Slide/jacks/light/awning. Part# is 183734 w/252249 overlay
Tv raise/lower remote is Part#245701

This is where Keystone gets theirs from. I bought a second remote, identical to original, with programming instructions for $25 + ship.

Call order desk for information on the TV part.

That's your best bet because anyone who has their TV on a lift won't want to part with theirs and frankly, in my opinion, you'd be better off without the other one. Our old rig had the remote and after the first couple of weeks we shoved it in a drawer and gave it to the dealer when we traded in six years later. And that was before I started hearing about the reciever problems here on the forum.

Remotes

They had the transmitter for the slides/awning/lights/jacks , a company called IDS made the tv transmuter/receiver which was bought out by Lippert and they want 197.00 for the pair, what a rip off! Not from me! 👎

You can try here:

You could also think "Gee, in the grand scheme of things so what if I pay the $197 and chalk it up to the purchase price or whatever"

If you don't want to pay the $$$ there should be a manual switch on the side of the cabinet where the VCR and other electronics go.

What a great solution, just buy another coach. Just kidding of course!!! We did that ourselves because of the dreaded rv fridge failure and bought our current 3721 to solve that problem.

Congrats on the 3721, it's a really great floor plan.

Does your 3721 have a swing in bath door or the dreaded pivot door that won't allow access to the toilet while on the road without extending the bedroom slide somewhat?

Just want to let you know that a few of us 3721 owner's that had the pivot door were inspired by Dick Montgomery, a member here, to have that door converted back to a normal door that swings in up against the toilet.
We can now skinny sideways down the hall to the bathroom with the slide in while on the road and even access the bed for a short nap from there.

Just food for thought going forward. Enjoy!

I have a 2012 Montana High Country 343rl. I recently had to change my control board that operates 4 slides, front and back landing gear, awning, scare lights, and sure enough, my remote would not control that control board, so had to buy a new remote as we. The remote worked perfect until I changed the control board. If you are still looking, I can send a photo of mine to see if it is the correct one. or phone 250-809-7987.

Yes we just upgraded to 3950BR, but we didn't get a remote to program for all the awnings, slides, lights. They gave instructions how to use I-phone to do the job, but if you're in a remote area, no phone internet. Did program it but when we got home, didn't recognize our home internet & had to do all over again. One remote would be best as we often move from site to site in the summer.
(Few "bugs" with new rig, but love it. Will get them out in Goshen.)
