Condensation between windows
miacasa_2000 replied to BradHend's topic in Body, Awning, Roof, Slides, & Steps
There is one more solution I'd like to add. RV Glass Solutions makes one pc laminated just like our windshields. After my drivers and door failed the second time I tried them and it has been great. They make it the same thickness as our double pane so it fits our frames perfectly. I'm sure I lost some R value and perhaps some noise level but you would need some sophisticated equipment to determine it. Driving, sleeping at rest stops, heating and cooling we haven't noticed any difference 4yrs now. Roy 2003 Dynasty -
On a personal note about the website…

I feel the same as Richard except maybe the work part and have added you to our prayers. This whole group is the best and you guys are exceptional. -
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of you and a special thank you to all that run this site. Your tireless work and we all know it takes a lot is so gratefully appreciated. Roy Mercier 2003 Dynasty

Skip I can't get to mine right now to take a pic but I remember in that right rear run bay box it's kind of like a junction box if you will. The tail lights , 7 way trailer plug, marker lights and more are in there. If your ok with test lights, meter etc. and maybe a helper in the cab that's a great place to start checking.

Entry door coming unlatched
miacasa_2000 replied to 63Hotrod's topic in Body, Awning, Roof, Slides, & Steps
If you have all the above proper adjustments done then the only thing I can think of is the latch itself. With the door open and you roll the latches into locked position with a pry tool of some sort try to pop a latch if you find one you can pop. I've never heard of one going bad but anything is possible from excessive wear, a crack, or still some sort of adjustment. Roy Mercier 2003 Dynasty -
Are my 31P-MHD chassis batteries dead, or just in a coma?
miacasa_2000 replied to Jean G's topic in Batteries
Jean Sounds like you have a good handle on it. Do all the things you said. If the battery tray is bad you'll have to make the call if you want to do something about it now and cancel the tire shop or take them back out later. If yours is like mine you should have a battery maintainer for the chassis batteries that actually works off the house batteries that's maintained by your inverter/charger. Not sure if all that's working on yours but if it is I would disconnect from shore power as well before you start to remove the batteries and a rule of thumb is to remove the neg cable first and on installation attach the neg cable last. I live where it also gets very cold and never had a battery that was kept with the acid at proper level and fully charged ever freeze, part of the reason mine is plugged in all the time.

baggage door stuck closed
miacasa_2000 replied to Les Hurdle's topic in Body, Awning, Roof, Slides, & Steps
What Jim said is good on mine the rod is threaded and was able to turn it up for proper adjustment vs bending the rods have some factory bends in them anyway. Roy Mercier 2003 Dynasty -
All suggestions above are good. I'd like to add one more happened to me. On the roof the vent caps age and become brittle I had a piece chip off in such away as I drove it forced air down the vent pipe everytime my dw flushed it stunk to high heavens. Put a rotating one on now better then original. Roy 2003 Dynasty

You can get the whole assembly with two keys from nappa the next day for just a little over $30. Once you unscrew the large outer cone shaped ring you can remove the switch from the rear. If yours is like mine Monaco did not use the molded plug they just put female spade terminals on the wires so no worries on fit. Roy 2003 Dynasty Thought about it for a minute you might have to with a screw driver and paper clip remove the key cylinder to get the bezel off. if you get it out cleanly you could just get a new key cylinder but as old as it is the whole thing might be better/ Roy 2003 Dynasty

Residental alternatives to replace the Norcold 1200
miacasa_2000 replied to 1nolaguy's topic in Appliances
I too had installed the newer Samsung recently and it would run off the msw only a short while and shut down and run perfect when I fired up the geny. I was worried that it would fry up the electronics so I too installed a dedicated psw for the fridge now we both are happy. I tell this for others who go this route for many of us were told that Samsung works well with msw and it seems they did but maybe in the background they didn't. Mine showed up right away and I assumed the newer electronics with the dc inverter compressor was the issue but I don't really know. I can say the smaller psw for the fridge was not expensive or hard to do and I chose one with a auto transfer switch built in so it works just like the msw. Roy 2003 Dynasty -
I have Centramatics all around they are great, But a word of caution . On my last set of tires they did not spin balance because of them and I had a terrible wobble went back and they put them on the spin balancer and found a tire out of round a factory defect which nothing will overcome. So I know I will from now on always have them balanced along with my Centramatics so I know I'm starting out good and who knows later down the road if a weight falls off the balancers will keep up with it.
