maintenance

I noticed surface rust on my propane lines under my towable. I live on the Oregon Coast where its normally humid. Its not thick and crusty. Its mostly just surface rust that I could just sand off I think. My question is: Can I use that Rust Encapsulated paint on those metal propane lines. I'm...

My EPRO 2022 19FD is leaking in the shower skylight in heavy rain. It leaks through the phillips screw heads and thankfully the bathtub is catching it. Can there be any damage going on in the cheap wood fiber inside the walls? First, is this a warranty item? Second, after inspection on the...

My 2018 Wildwood X-lite top gutter seals starting to erode. What would be better Dicor or Lexel? Just wondering what sort of experience anyone has had with either.

I have been using a Geargo surge protector (8000 joules) but looking at the Power Watchdog Gen II as an upgrade. My first thought is that thing looks huge! My real question though is what’s the general consensus on surge vs EPO? Is EPO worth the money or do standard surge protectors do a...

So all my side doors have been difficult to close lately was thinking of removing from trl trying to tear down clean hinges. Just want to make sure not spring loaded easily reassembled

When I connect my 2019 A212HW a-frame camper to shore power, I hit the "auto" button on my three way Dometic fridge. The only choice it gives me is DC power. When I try to connect to AC power, it won't connect. I've googled the troubleshooting, and it appears to most likely be a problem with...

We’ve noticed on a longer or steeper downhill when the engine brake is engaged we get a smell of hot rubber in the cab it doesn’t quite smell like brakes to me and it happens even when I’m not touching the brakes much has anyone else encountered this? It’s mild and not that bad but gets our...

We just purchased a 2014 Keystone Sprinter. It has 3 slideouts, and we will be living in it full time. We have heard mixed reviews about slideout covers. What are your thoughts?

2022 Alta 1900mmk. I need to replace this cover strip but I don't have a clue about what to call it in a search. It covers the screws that go through a metal track which secures the front fiberglass to the side walls. Anyone know the name of this part? Suggestions for a vendor?

Today I was underneath my camper, checking out the underbelly which is in great condition then I noticed underneath the slides doesn’t have no paper. No nothing just clean plywood no damage no water damage. Is it OK to be left alone or should I code it or paint it, the one slide in the kitchen...

I wanted to share a quick and easy hack for anyone who is fed up with how loud the air conditioners are on our Travel Trailers and RV's. It's annoying while trying to sleep, or while trying to have a conversation or listen to music during dinner or relaxing. Even with that sliding vent closed...

I've been trying to find somebody who can fix our 2012 Georgetown 378 . One of the shops I managed to find said they'd need the part number for the window and said it was on the bottom right of the frame etched in red. I've looked using a magnifying glass with no luck So 1. Has anyone with a...

I picked up a strange whitish substance on all four wheels at some point on a recent I95 long distance trip. I didn't notice it until trying to clean the wheels after returning home. I believe these are alloy wheels with clear coating and I don't want to damage the wheels. The strongest cleaning...

I have an Eaz-lift, elite S hitch system for my 2025 273 QBXLX FR Salem Lite camper. I've towed with it a dozen times or so with no problem. The last two times towing with it, the bottom of the hookup bracket has shifted. I've tightened the bolts but I'm still getting that shift. What could be...

The brake and turn signal lights stopped working on my TT. I am not sure where the fuse would be, or which one it would be. The running lights work. From my research so far, it seems like changing the fuse would be the next step. I checked the plug and nothing looks corroded. Thanks,

We have a FR Wildwood that uses the square plastic sections for the underbelly. These have constantly fallen off during travel, and now we have a panel missing, and others cracked and hanging down. This has led to an increase in rodent issues and makes traveling with it not ideal without...

How is everyone cleaning-lubing the hydraulic slide mechanism that is under the cover in the drivers side wheel well? There is a hydraulic ram and some pivots in there. That is quite a complicated set uo in there. Any pics before and after?

We just bought the above model and love the layout. What blows me away is the supremely poor quality finishing and that I have seen very little mentioned about this online. Is there any advice for what we can do for a preventive measure with the cabinets mainly, or do we just wait till stuff...

On my 2022 DynaQuest XL 3801TS, I have a continuing water leak problem. It's been worked on by the dealer, factory and an independent service center and still the leak continues. Some of the water is running off the slide cables, so I put a pan under the cables and a lip under the cables to...

Hi There! Just bought a new Rockwood Freedom 2318FT - super excited to get back to pop-camping with the grand kids. 2 questions…is there a pop-up specific thread in this forum? And 2) Where might I find a recurring maintenance schedule (interior, exterior, and equipment). I looked on the...
