  1. I used one of the Florida companies (Ft Myers area) to remove the shield from my 2005 HR Ambassador. I couldn't ask for a better experience. It did take most of the day to complete, but no paint loss, no nicks; perfect job. Then they did a complete wax and buff of the entire front-end. See before and after below.
  2. A while back there was a post on product(s) used to counter rust on the battery compartment tray. I've searched the various topics on this forum and can't find it. One in particular used a paint/primer and a type board (if memory serves correctly) to protect the tray. Looking for some input/suggestions. TIA
  3. @Steven P Richard (Dr4Film) is correct ...I had the work dont at Billy T's in Lafayette LA. Very good people to work with and they did a good job in the timeframe promised. Highly recommended. Can vary greatly...call them for an estimate. They'll need to ask questions and may need to see pics before they give you a price.
  4. The Samsung is not as deep as the Norcold, so they didn't need to touch the drain line...the platform and Samsung sits in front of that drain.
  5. This past summer I replaced my Norcold 1200 for a new Samsung in my 2005 HR Ambassador. The furnace is under the frig and there was little/no excess headroom with the Norcold. I took it to an RV shop that specializes in doing modifications. They were able to lower the platform 5" without affecting the furnace. All's good...glad I had it changed. Much better frig and much more space. PS...mine runs on MSW inverter just fine.
  6. I have a 2005 HR Ambassador 37 PDD and just (in April 2021) installed a new Samsung R18 with furnace below. Width-wise, just removed some molding. There was 5" of space below floor holding the Notsocold 1200 that proved to be plenty of space (nothing above). Now with the Samsung there is still an inch above the furnace cowling. The new Samsung doesnt have the door handles that protrude into the walkway...just pull french doors from built in handles in bottom of doors. Old unit out and new one in thru side window behind passenger seat. I love the new frig's space and how cold it stays (recommended 37 frig/0 freezer by manufacturer). I don't know exact energy consumption, but it ran off inverter all day while traveling and still had battery power to spare using 4 x 6volt lead-acid batteries (ice maker off until on shore power). So far I'm very happy I made the switch. John H.
  7. I have a 2005 HR Ambassador with the 4-door Norcold reefer. After I purchased in 2017, I took it to an authorized Norcold repairman and he made some changes that made it work better, but would like to swap it out for a residential. I don't feel comfortable doing the changeout myself. Furnace is below frig and want to keep it. Does anyone have suggestions as to where i might take it to have the changeout? I live in Biloxi, MS.

  9. I have a 2005 HR Ambassador with Sharp micro/Convection oven that only ran 1 min on Convection...found it was a part that cost about $25. Replaced 2 yrs ago and it still working properly. You have similar problem?

  12. I'm having the same issues with ABC and CW East. I talked to DirecTV technical support (TS) and was told Congress did not renew the Stellar law allowing them to broadcast the DNS channels. TS said it COULD be renewed soon, BUT no promises. He did say Customer Loyalty may give a prorated bill if it doesn't fix soon. He also said the other channels (NBC, CBS, etc.) could go as well. I too have been considering going to Dish. John H. 2005 HR Ambassador, Jeep Wrangler road and Cody the JRT.
  13. I am getting multiple copies of the daily digests this morning. These are my first examples of this problem. I use Yahoo mail. I've gotten at least 5 of the same emails this morning. Thanks for working this Scotty.
