  1. Very sad to learn of Ray’s passing. I always looked forward to reading his posts which provided so much great information and I appreciated his witty remarks. RIP Ray Davis 🙏
  2. All single handle faucets have a cartridge. As stated by Donflem if it is a Moen they have a lifetime warranty. I’m not sure about Gerber faucets and any warranty. If you could find the faucet brand and model, you should be able to find a replacement part. A new cartridge should stop any leaking. While changing the cartridge be sure to use a good O-ring food grade silicone lubrication.
  3. To take off the spout you will need a 7/32 allen wrench. The handles unscrew with a small strap wrench or if you are tossing the faucet you could use channel locks or a pipe wrench.
  4. The handles unscrew by turning the wide part of the handle counter-clockwise and to remove the spout you need to remove the pop-up rod from the spout. Inside the hole for the pop-up rod is a screw that has to be turned counter-clockwise. This is an allen head machine screw. After removing the spout and handles you can unscrew the handle base escutcheons and then the base unit of the faucet should be able to be removed.
  5. IIRC the access panel on top of the dash allows for getting to the switch to push in the button which releases the pull out knob. Then I just took the switch out the top and reversed the operation to install the new one.
  6. I replaced the headlight switch in my ’01 Dynasty with a 70’s Chevrolet switch from NAPA Auto Parts store. The switch worked fine and was easy to replace. 20% off Eligible Headlight Switch 2.0 (1) Part #: ECH HL6613 Guaranteed to fit your vehicle1978 Chevrolet C10 1/2 Ton - Pickup $39.99 / each

  8. I had the same problem with our bathroom door in our ’01 Dynasty. Spring and fall it would catch on the bottom 1/4 of the strike side of door frame. Summer was fine, but DW did not want to put up with the problem so last spring I took off the door and used my power hand planer to shave the bottom 1/3 of the strike side and used a little stain and polyurethane to refinish. Door has worked fine since. BTW here on the north Oregon coast we run a dehumidifier full time.
  9. I had a rear bedroom slide that moved in and out slowly, after checking under the slide I noticed the rollers digging into the carpet so I replaced the flooring and installed metal strips just where the rollers traveled. The slide moves steady in and out with no hesitation now.
  10. The 2001 Dynasty has two solenoids on the salesman switch. After changing one solenoid and accidentally turning off the salesman switch several times I finally jumpered both solenoids by putting the large wires on the same post and disconnecting the small wires on each solenoid. No more problems losing lights and other 12V systems!
  11. I checked the 12 volt fuse panel for the house circuits and noticed the top line states it is for the 2000 & 2001 Dynasty. I hope this pic helps.
  12. Thank you for the info, I will put in in my coach file.
  13. Very nice looking work. The new switch location sure makes a lot of sense. What color stain did you use to match the existing woodwork?
  14. I like the idea of refurbishing the existing brackets as the holes in the coach will line up. Ivan K, nicely done! Thanks for the ideas.
  15. I have the same issue on the ladder brackets on my '01 Dynasty. I have wondered where to look for new brackets, now I will try to refurbish the existing ones. Thank you DavidL and Tom Cherry!
