  1. I have the Dometic Ac/heat pumps with the dual zone comfort control thermostat on my 2007 Holiday Rambler Endeavor.  In zone one the heat pump is not showing up on the thermostat, zone two has cooling, furnace, fan and heat pump.  Everything works in zone two and everything but heat pump in zone one.  Has anyone had this situation, if so what was the fix?

    Thanks for any help on this.

  2. Jim,   I don't know the model, but news rigs today have a much quieter ac system, not sure if your existing ducting would accommodate the new quiet units, but might be worth investigating,  One thing that might prohibit their use is they the return air is not jn the unit, it's a separate return air in the ceiling.  The ducting might be snake to be adapted?  Good luck with your search.

  3. Gary, thanks very much, that is exactly what I needed to see.  Are the rollers accessible by taking the bottom out of the bed storage box?  I'm thinking that I may have 14 years of dirt, debris, and other crud that needs cleaning, a little lubricant or worst case roller adjustment.   Are the rollers adjustable? I see you are from or are in Ashland, Or.  We're north of you at Woodburn.

     

    Thanks,

  4. Our rack and pinion bedroom slide with the bed in it is making a screeching noise when it is deployed and retracted.  I lubricated the track and rail from outside as well as pulled the cover under the bed and lubricated anything that could need lubrication.   Everything looked in order under the bed, but after lubrication I still have the screeching sound. 

     

    Has anyone had this issue on a 2007 Holiday Rambler Endeavor 40SKQ floorplan and if so how did you resolve the issue?  Thanks in advance for any help.

  5. Neil, are you sure the water stain isn't from a previous or current water leak? We had the Dane scenario with curtins on our '07 Holiday Rambler.  after investigating we found a leak where the large awning attaches to the roof.  we cleaned it thoroughly and sealed all seams on the roof with 6 inch eternabond tape, that solved the leak issue.  We washed the curtins in vinegar and soap, the stain was almost undetectable, but still there . However, the backing on the curtins dissolved into small granules eliminating their blackout effect.  We ordered some curtins from Amazon that had grommetsfor curtin rod.  We need 232 inches of width 48inches high to cover.  The curtins we ordered were polyester blackout 42 inches per panel 65 inches high.  We ordered 4 pairs and used 7 of the panels to give us good coversge.  My wife cut them off to 49 1/2 to allow for a hem.   We then ordered from Amazon 50 hangers with a hook on one end and a clip with teeth on the other end, we used 8 clips per panel spaced about 6 inches apart, at at each clip we folded the material to give the appearance if a pleat and clipped the clip to the fold.  Finally we went to Walmart fabric dept and bought 2 packed if 3/4 inches inches wide by 24 inches long peel and stick stick velcro, whichever attached to each each curtain panel.  We out a 2 inches piece pieces near the top of each panel along the seam, then spaced them down the panel approximately 10-12 inches apart with the bottom velcro about 4 inches from the bottom of the curtin. 

    We are very pleased with the result and the curtins really darken the coach.  by using 7 panels there is enough fabric to appear that they have pleats and not look completely flat.

    We accomplished this fir a cost of under $200 and 4-5 hours of our time.  The task that took the longest was steam ironing the wrinkles out of the fabric from being folded for packaging.   We hope this info helps you with your decision.

  6. My slide with bed in it was squeaking very loudly when I deployed and retracted it.  it's electric rack and pinion.  I removed the plywood cover, did not see anything unusual.  I lubricated with dry silicone the track, rollers and other parts that might need lubrication.  I also deployed the slide and lubricated the track from the outside as far as I could get the silicone lubricant into the mechanism.  I deployed and retracted the slide 3-4 times and the squeak seemed to be much less than previous to lubricating, but still there.

    Any other thoughts would be appreciated. 2007 Holiday Rambler Endeavor 40 SKQ.

    Thanks

  7. Todd, we have our coach professionally cleaned in Arizona every winter, usually in March, then i use a spray on to keep it clean.  As for the roof I clean it again in September. After clean it I apply a coat if Mop n Glow to the top.  it works well.  I apply it with a sponge mop being careful not to let it run over the sides of the coach.  I did that once and had white streaks down the sides.

    Did not see brakes as a category for posting.

    We just returned from a trip and when putting on tire covers I noticed excessive brake dust accumulation on the rims of both rear wheels, most on passenger side.   Had brakes checked in 2018, 85% at that time.  Coach is 2007 Holiday Rambler Endeavor. Should I be concerned about this or is it normal.  We live in Oregon and most trips have come mountains with 6% grades.

    Appreciate any help.
