Expert Answers about Coachmen Freelander Motorhome


  • Brake Controller Plug Location on a 2014 Coachmen Freelander with Factory 7-Way Trailer Connector
  • The connector that you found under your dash is actually the OBD-II port which is why it doesn't quite match up with a brake controller adapter, like part # 3034-P which fits Tekonsha and Draw-Tite brake controllers. Typically we find on motorhomes that the brake controller plug is up under the driver's side dash, next to the steering column, or under the driver's seat. From what I could find it looks like your 2014 Coachmen Freelander was built on a 2013 Ford E-350 chassis. If you skip...

  • Can a 2019 Kia Soul Be Flat-Towed
  • According to my research, the 2019 Kia Soul can be flat-towed with all four wheels down if it has a manual transmission. However, I strongly recommend you confirm this with your local dealer as the owner's manual was not very clear on whether or not it is recommended. In order to flat-tow the vehicle with all four wheels on the ground behind a motorhome you are going to need a tow bar, base plate kit, safety cables, tail light wiring harness, supplemental braking system, and possibly a...

  • Brake Controller Connection Port on Coachmen Class C Motorhome Based on 2010 Ford E-450 Chassis
  • If your Ford E-450-based Class C motorhome has a factory 7-way connector with a blue brake circuit wire then there should indeed be a brake controller connection port to allow plug-and-play installation of a controller like the Prodigy P3 # 90195 that will use the part you referenced, harness # 3034-P. If you refer to the linked photo you'll see the spot on the dash behind which the connector is typically found. The mating gray connector you'll look for will be similar in size and shape...

  • How to Determine Correct Wheel Stabilizers for Tandem Axle Trailer
  • In order to determine the correct wheel stabilizer for your tandem axle trailer, you need to know the spacing you have between your wheels, as there isn't a standard spacing for trailers based on size. So all you need to do is take a quick measurement of the space between the tires at their closest point, which you'll use to determine the right stabilizers. - Up to 5-1/4" Wheel Spacing: Ultra-Fab Chock and Lock Wheel Stabilizers # UF21-001070 (can be locked with Master Lock Padlocks #...

You'll want to measure the thickness of your mounts to be sure though.

  • RV Approved Hitch Bike Rack Recommendation
  • I understand your frustration. I am including a link below in which the first two pages are of motorhome rated hitch bike racks. I did see you are returning a Yakima Ridgeback hitch bike rack.

It is motorhome approved. This rack carries four bikes. It has three points of contact when it is carrying...

  • Recommended Hitch Mount Motorcycle Carrier for a Motorhome
  • We do have what you need to carry a motorcycle on the back of your motorhome but first I recommend finding out if the RV rated that kind of tongue weight. From my research your 2016 Coachman Freelander Micro only has a towing capacity of 2,000 pounds which means its tongue weight should be no more than 300 pounds. You said you're going to change out the hitch receiver that doesn't necessarily increase a vehicle's capacity since there are other factors, like the chassis, that come into...

  • Recommended 3-Bike Hanging Style Motorhome Bike Rack
  • We can help you with a RV-rated 3-bike hanging style hitch bike carrier for your motorhome. All such carriers appear on the linked page. The Swagman Original 3 carrier # S64152-2 is a basic but sturdy 3-bike rack that fits a 2-inch motorhome hitch. I have owned this rack for several years; it is not a fancy "boutique" carrier but it is very solid and mine has held up extremely well.

  • What Does the Capacity Mean for Sumo Springs on a 2018 Coachmen Freelander
  • This is a great question and one that can cause some confusion. SumoSprings capacity is determined by how much weight it takes to compress the spring down to 50% of its original body height, so a spring like the # SSF-106-40 will compress down to half of it's unweighted height with 500-lbs of pressure. The # SSF-106-47 is going to be a stronger spring with it's 1000-lbs capacity. Keep in mind, these aren't designed to upgrade the GVWR, but they're designed to help cushion the load that...

  • How to Fix Rapid Turn Signal Flashing When Converting Incandescent Lights to LEDs
  • What you are dealing with is called hyperflashing. You will want to use the Load Resistor Kit for LED Turn Signals item # DI34ZR to fix it. LED lights don't draw as much power as incandescent lights so there are issues with fast flashing until a resistor is added. The resistor increases the amperage draw to resemble incandescent lights. The resistors will install directly behind the turn signals. I don't know what you mean by four way flasher but you'll need one of these per turn signal...

  • How to Determine if Ultra Fab Motorcycle Carrier # UF48-979033 Will Clear Rear Bumper
  • The Ultra-Fab Dirt Bike Carrier # UF48-979033 that you referenced is safe to use at the hitch at the back of a motorhome like your 2014 Coachman Freelander QB21. To determine if it will clear the rear bumper you'll need to measure from the hitch pin hole of it out to the furthest point out on the rear bumper. If that distance is less than 5 inches this will fit and clear without issue.

  • Recommended Replacement AC Unit for Dometic Setup in 2011 Coachmen Freelander 32BH
  • I recommend using the Advent Air Replacement RV Air Conditioner for Dometic Setup w/ Start Capacitor - 15,000 Btu - White # ACDOM150 which is a direct replacement for Dometic AC units and can be used with ducted or ductless systems. This is a 15,000 btu unit, so they're equivalent to the units you're replacing and will do a great job as a replacement. I also really like that these units have built in start capacitors to help make sure your units will always be able to start, even if the...
