  1. Like Warren mine are cracking in the same area on my 2001. Mine look like JDCrow’s except the upper lense is amber. I’d like to replace the lower red set and is turn signal. Any idea what would be an appropriate replacement?
  2. It would appear the BlueOx TruCenter has been discontinued.
  3. Congratulations from the land of Mickey Mouse!
  4. I have to have my key switched to accessory to operate the leveling system.
  5. I was unable to get on the roof but inside I removed the grate and the only brand identifier I could find was “DuoTherm”. Is this a Dometic Penguin unit?
  6. Thanks. I’ll be stopping by this afternoon and get the brand to order one to fit it. I’ll put plastic over it until the new cover arrives.
  7. On my most recent trip my cover blew off, also. We haven’t had rain predicted and I haven’t been able to go to the storage facility to check. As I recall the one in the bedroom is a different brand from the front. Will it hurt if it rains while the “guts” are exposed? Will it leak?
  8. Is there a source for the special key to open the condenser door. I believe I have the same set up but I didn’t get a key for that door when I bought the Coach. My Monaco added fuel filter is directly above the rear hydraulic jack on that side. Hard to see unless you know where to look.
  9. Thanks everyone. You have given me some much-needed direction to start investigating the source of the staining. I'll be starting the investigation this weekend. Thanks, I'll look at resolving this issue.
  10. There is a slide adjacent to this bay, but it isn't directly above. I'm not sure if it is hydraulic. When fully extended, it will make a low clicking noise when it reaches full extension. Below are photos of this area with the slide out I took on other trips. The door in question is the last one on this side. The slide is more or less over the bay in front of the electrical bay. I will be going to the storage facility over the weekend and I'll look at the hinges for rust. There is a hydraulic jack behind the next bay forward. The next bay has the condenser for the dash air conditioning. The first fuel filter and hydraulic jack for the rear driver's side are behind the condenser radiator (black grill). It could be the hydraulic jack on the rear of the driver's side leaking because when we were breaking camp the rear hydraulic jack on the passenger side (opposite side) didn't fully retract. I had to re-extend the driver's side jack fully to get the passenger side jack to fully retract. Then the driver's side jack (the one behind the dash air condenser) fully retracted without issue. Thank you all for your suggestions. I had never considered rust or hydraulic fluid from the slide or jack. I'll check for all three when I return to the storage facility this weekend.
  11. Most of our trips so far have been local weekends. Last weekend we went to Sebastian Inlet State Park. The drive was a little over 2 hours and when we arrived I found this when I hooked up the electrical. I have never seen this before. It appears to be coming from the top of the electrical bay door next to the engine. Below is a photo of the exterior door and a photo of what's behind it. It looks like oil of some kind, but it doesn't appear to be coming from inside the compartment, as there is no fluid in the electrical bay. Any suggestions where/what is leaking? Thanks in advance.
  12. I wanted to replace mine with an LED light, and Amazon had an LED version identical to the original. It came with both amber and clear. Amber is supposed to not attract insects. Insects cannot see that color light and thus aren't attracted to it.
  13. Nor will you be the last. We’ve all experienced it.
  14. Should not take 3 months. That’s why I have all my accounts with my local credit union. In the past I’ve had to dispute a charge only once, they decided on refunding the money within 5days. Most banks will put the money back with a hold until they finish their investigation. Most credit cards will credit the money to your account within 5-10 business days. If they rule against you they will reapply the charge. With the credit card, be specific & detailed. I once despite’s a charge and the vendor wrote a letter and lied. I then had to go to battle with the credit card company.
  15. I believe this is the video referenced above: The personal experience by a fellow RVer: Both are worth a watch by every RVer and passenger car driver as well.
