There are usually 2 circuit breakers on the inverter. Make they are both flipped on.

Right turn signal not working when lights on
Bootlegger replied to tjones8's topic in General Motorhome Discussion
Sounds like a ground wire issue. I recently had the same issue and I found a loose wire on 1 of my pigtail connectors which was not all the way connected. I started by checking my wiring harnesses and following them to the left light. When I started moving the wiring harnesses I noticed the blinker started working. It can take some time time tracing out a ground issue. -
Following. My 2005 Safari Cheetah has similar lights, and I have been unable to locate the rear tail light lenses.

I replaced my Sheppard with a TRW box and I have some play, but it is much better than the Sheppard box I had previously. The below link has a lot of information in regards to what is, and what isn't acceptable for steering play. Some claim to get it to zero play, but I was not that lucky and have about 1/2 to 1" of play on my Safari Cheetah. Before the steering box swap, I had 5 to 6" of play. https://www.irv2.com/forums/f115/steering-box-play-sheppard-m100-shim-or-swap-for-a-trw-210152.html Good Luck and be safe.

I just had my shade break and thought the same thing. Make sure to check your spring before assuming it is broke. I had to take mine completely apart and adjust a plastic piece on the inside of the roller. It takes a little patience to take apart. I had originally pulled mine down too far, and it wouldn't retract. It works like new again.

City water filled fresh water tank/ back flow...
Bootlegger replied to Romeo84's topic in Water Systems
I can fill my water through the opening on the left or connect a water hose directly below the arrow on the right. The flow depends on the manual valve next to the arrow on my RV. -
City water filled fresh water tank/ back flow...
Bootlegger replied to Romeo84's topic in Water Systems
The handles some time strip out and do not turn the valve. Can you see the valve stem moving? -
City water filled fresh water tank/ back flow...
Bootlegger replied to Romeo84's topic in Water Systems
On my RV, I have a manual valve that diverts the water to City or Tank Fill. If I turn it to City water, the freshwater tank does not fill, and I do not need my water pump. -
I can find round fog light replacements, but these fog lights are an oval shape. Every place I have previously checked says discontinued or out of stock.
-
My apologies for the bad pic, but I had this pic from a previous post and I am looking for the entire fog light assembly. The plastic has dulled so much that the lights do no good. Thanks in advance.

Following. I have the same problem on my 2005 Safari.

Chassis Battery's are losing charge while driving
Bootlegger replied to Wheelwright's topic in Batteries
Sounds like a bad cell in one of your batteries. I went through 3 batteries in as many months on my wife's SUV. The dealership blamed bad batteries made during covid. -
That is quite the plumbing you have. Just be careful of crossflow contamination in to your freshwater. You may want to insert a backflow preventer on the black line for just in case. Just my 2 cents worth.

Hi Bob, I had a similar leak just a few months back. My leak was from the foot valve. It had a small crack and would leak just enough to keep the floor wet. They are easy to replace and relatively cheap.

Rhino liner on the front
Bootlegger replied to Flyinhy's topic in Body, Awning, Roof, Slides, & Steps
Unfortunately, I acquired this RV through a dealership and the previous owner had passed away without leaving any receipts of the work. Bugs wash right off. -

These pics are a little closer from today. Just got back from the Blackhills, so there are still bugs on the front. -

I was told that any refrigerator should work off of an inverter as long as your inverter is built for it. I am not an electrician, so I will let the experts chime in on this question.

I just recently replaced my Never Cold with a residential fridge. I hired a local rv company to install mine and it took them about 2 hours, including removing the driver side window. My pick was based on what was available in my area. It works great. https://www.lowes.com/pd/Frigidaire-18-cu-ft-Top-Freezer-Refrigerator-Black/1000225699

I had a similar locking issue, but mine started occurring after I installed new entry steps. I sometimes have to slightly push in on the door to get the door handle to function. My 2 cents worth.

Steve, I do not have an answer for an install shop in Tennessee, but there are plenty of YouTube videos on how to do the job yourself. I recently replaced mine by myself and it took about 2 hours. It would have been easier with 2 people, but you can do it yourself. Good luck.

Kwikee Steps Problem
Bootlegger replied to burghere66's topic in Body, Awning, Roof, Slides, & Steps
More than likely you have a missing tooth on the gear. They break off from getting in a bind or stepping on the steps before they are fully extended. I had the same issue on my rv. Found the gear online and replaced myself. -
Rik, I have been wondering about the same thing. I have a 2005 Safari Cheetah and it has always dripped, but now I am getting hard water spots on the side of the rv. I have seen RV gutters that can be place on the side of your RV to direct the water to the front or back of the coach. https://www.amazon.com/Esssentials-UW05004-Polar-White-Gutter/dp/B009IGF42G/ref=pd_ybh_a_14?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=F6HDD94CWTP073E7S4S8
