  1. Getting ready for a trip and our bedroom slide curb side appears to twist as it try’s to go out. It appears to be stuck on the right side roller? Has anyone else had this issue? Ours is a 2004 Safari Cheetah and this rear slide is on a single gear driven track with appears to be a one foot wide roller on each side near the outer wall. I can rock and tilt the top of the slide outward by putting pressure on the inside top but when I apply power it try’s to go out on the left side but stuck on the right side. Any suggestions appreciated.
  2. The original housings are designed to the focal point of the bulb element. Engineering in some other light source that does not match the exact geometry of the original bulb may or most likely will not produce what you desire. Our pusher has the large Par56 round sealed beam incandescent headlights, similar to what you see on older Jeeps. I changed these to multiple led assemblies with integrated running, turn, high and low beam. They look nice, fancy is a better description, but I still installed additional driving lights to be compatible with the average lighting system on today’s vehicles. Good luck
  3. Would also love to see this but link does not work....
  4. On my 04 Cheetah Safari in the outside compartment under the drivers seat there is a small pc board related to the abs system. On that board is a red push button in which the contacts get dirty. I spray that switch with contact cleaner and the dash random on off abs light goes away. Hope this helps..
  5. Perhaps the remote control panel invert on off was inadvertently set to on? We never used ours in the invert function, I’m going to check ours today and simulate your experience and to see if it works lol....
  6. Indeed you will need the ability to move the trailer with something other than your motorhome. I do not like parking my trailer in remote areas of a campground, sometimes they tend to vanish, hope it never happens to you or I. Safe travels!
  7. Please explain the Dyno mode, what is it and how to clear it. I don’t think I put mine in it when I washed my switch with contact cleaner but I’ve done crazy things before lol!
  8. I had the same problem and sprayed under all over the test diagnostic button with contact cleaner, worked the button several times and problem went away. That button / pc diagnostic board is located in the road side front compartment under the fuse panel on my 04
  9. Your house batteries are soft, meaning not holding a charge, if being charged at all. I agree with a previous comment to check all of your connections, also check your hi current fuse to the batteries from the inverter, (mine was open once and gave me the same symptoms that you mentioned) replaced that fuse problem went away. Put a volt meter on the batteries, take a reading then plug into shore power. You should see 13.8 to 14.5 volts and hear the inverter humming!
  10. Interesting comments indeed. I recently purchased new tires from a Goodyear Truck Center and they inflated all to 115 psi. I then took my Safari across the street to a truck front end alignment garage and they suggest running the steer tires at 125 psi which is max on the tires. I noted a much harder ride and subsequently adjusted these back down to 115 and the coach got smoother again. Not so sure about the front end alignment suggestion and frankly, these new tires will get outdated way before I wear them out.
  11. Analysis, paralysis lol. Take your time, have a few beers along the way and tackle the issues one at a time with a multimeter. Our 2004 Safari is not multiplexed however I have never failed to resolve numerous electrical issues being a retired EE. Come to our 13 acres in southern Tennessee with large driveway, southern hospitality and plenty of extension cords and we can fix your issues, I am sure and make new friends.
