  1. I got my replacement slide toppers and springs directly from Carefree by calling them and giving them the numbers from my build sheet. Perfect match to the originals, which were theirs in the first place.
  2. Almost done changing all the puck lights from halogen to LED in my 2003 Signature. These are what I got from Amazon, 2700K, dimmable. Only adjustment I made was trimming just a smidge off the length of the bi-pins: https://www.amazon.com/OLÉ-Lighting-Flicker-Non-dimmable-Energy/dp/B0BFCM51B6/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2LYEB9MNR6QQ9&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.JYq8vnhGRpbe21XNgtjo5Jobk9-I3Z9oC3sA8Q9jAbQXHGuHKL5Tlbj9NWaJEL5h43GisBVWHudteTEswnjNMYsOlDs-4LsRLV0tu7YNfDL2zEBrZVMXQzB9S150CTE1JZMoyBx3ueHUK7A7pGrGbglSgI-GtPvUGdvMNn0wn_Nril0_YIAHqNpr-isw_yIq7JJZD3DaBRd8T4e5lJgHu9gvPxakOiOey5LXbInUiyTz0cX8izsm9du2HprJGbzG9F3-9VaxKTfKrm3fT5PTWJm_ljqH7zvzjqnlHCmoc3k.kP6xGA9ymWLlNrJCzpncycS6vCzDbAkgpy714CLZvvs&dib_tag=se&keywords=G4%2BLED%2BBulbs%2B2W%2BWarm%2BWhite%2BLED%2BBulb%2B2700K%2C%2B200LM%2BG4%2BLED%2BBulb%2B12V%2BAC%2FDC%2B180°%2BBeam%2BNo%2BFlicker%2BDimmable%2BEnergy%2BSaving%2BLamp%2BG4%2BBulb%2B(8%2BPacks)&qid=1711310183&sprefix=g4%2Bled%2Bbulbs%2B2w%2Bwarm%2Bwhite%2Bled%2Bbulb%2B2700k%2C%2B200lm%2Bg4%2Bled%2Bbulb%2B12v%2Bac%2Fdc%2B180%2Bbeam%2Bno%2Bflicker%2Bdimmable%2Benergy%2Bsaving%2Blamp%2Bg4%2Bbulb%2B8%2Bpacks%2B%2Caps%2C87&sr=8-1&th=1 What a big difference in brightness; these are 200 lumen, and going from 20 watts/bulb to 2 not only saves battery, but a whole lot less heat per puck. I did all the puck lights in the coach, living room and bedroom.
  3. Update: after working through some troubleshooting with Westland tech, it's a real possibility that the problem is a loose wire somewhere in the unit. I won't be able to pull the washer until I get home, but will update then. The only alternative is a control board problem. like broken solder connection. He said boards were no longer available. Thanks for the suggestions.
  4. Thank you, Tom. I'll do that today. It was my first thought, but I need to find it. However, in just messing with it now per Splendide's troubleshooting, if I set the dryer to 30 minutes and turn it on, the "auto dry" LED is on, and door lock/status goes on and dryer starts. Then, as I mentioned, the status light flickers and goes off, but the "auto dry" LED stays on, which tells me that I'm not losing power to the dryer and maybe it's. not the AES. Thoughts? Edit: I think the W/D is connected to my middle AC unit, not the bedroom. But your point is well-taken. I'll test that out, too.
  5. Well, that's interesting. My remote has just one LED below the buttons, but if I push the center button, the LED flashes once, and if I push it again it flashes twice. I have only the big awning and a door awning. But I have a three-position wall switch for the door awning, top and bottom for in and out, and middle for off. I'll have to experiment to see if/how the remote does the door. With the door switch in the middle/off position, the remote doesn't affect it. Thanks for the info.
  6. The Spendide washer/dryer, model WD2100 has worked fine in my 2003 Signature, until yesterday. Now when I start it everything seems good: door locks, water starts to fill, etc. But within a minute, it seems to lose power, the red light flickers and goes off, then starts up again where it left off for maybe 10-15 seconds, then repeats the shutoff. I went through troubleshooting section in the service/training/owners manual(s), but it doesn't really speak to this issue. I know the w/d is connected to the third air conditioner for load sharing, but this happens whether the ac is on or off. No matter which setting it's on, wash, spin, dry, etc., it does the same. Drum spins okay, so not belt. It's going to be a pain in the dupa to pull it out, if that's what I need to do. I'll call Westland tomorrow, but I thought I'd first see if anyone here has experienced and resolved similar. Thanks in advance.
  7. UPDATE: so, after messing around with it and new(er) batteries, I discovered that it controls the Girard awning.
  8. I have a white three-button remote with "somfy" on the bottom for my 2003 Signature, but have no idea what it's for. I've read maybe the Girard awning, maybe the interior window shades, or something else. It takes a 2430 button battery, but even with a new battery, it doesn't seem to control anything. Anyone have similar that can provide insight? Thanks.
  9. This is exactly what I had to do with my 2003 Signature when it kept creeping out. I ended up replacing the solenoid/valve and all is good. I have the old one to replace the o-rings and keep as a spare.
  10. On my 2003 Signature the access floor panel by the bed fits pretty snugly to keep heat / air from the inside. Once you release all four latches, give each some pretty good tugs and. it should come free.
  11. +1 on FMCA. We had two tows within on year of our 45' coach, each of which would have cost us around. $1k (per towing service). I never had to do or sign anything; all taken care of quickly and efficiently. Also includes my wife and cars for no additional cost.
  12. I would definitely be interested in the files, as my son has a 3-D printer. Cost of files for right and left sides? Thanks. Joe
  13. At some point I got straps from Carefree that were too long and cut them to size.
  14. When the Big Boy on my 2003 Signature was not functioning, I put in an Echo-Charge to keep both banks charged until I was able to clean / fix my Big Boy. I left the Echo-Charge connected, but removed the fuse, making it non-functioning, until if and when I need to work on big boy.
