• How To Remove Old Glue From Holding Tank Pad Heater
• In order to remove the old adhesive you might find it easier to heat the glue first and then try a combination of scraping or products such as rubber alcohol.

• Can I use Curt Wireless Brake Controller on RV with 29 Foot Range?
• The Curt Echo Wireless Trailer Brake Controller # C51180 has a range of 50 feet although this does depend on how well your phone receives bluetooth signals. We tested this with the usual newer mobile devices and found no issues with it at that range. Now, if you do lose connection, the controller will still work and operate based on the settings given at the last connection. You just won't have the panic/emergency brake override button until your mobile phone reconnects. With the distance...

• Should Electric Trailer Brakes 23-458-459 Have Four Wires to Magnet
• Electric trailer brakes like the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Kit # 23-458-459 should only utilize two wires, the power and the ground. You do need to connect each of the wires to your brake assemblies, and each should have its own ground. If you haven't completed the set up then that would be why the brakes aren't all operational as of yet. If you take a look at the cut out I added you can see how the wiring should go for your brakes. I have also added a link below to an...

• Can Camco Power Grip RV Power Cord Adapter Plug Connect to 20 Amp Receptacle
• The Camco Power Grip RV Power Cord Adapter plug # CAM55223 referenced in your question can technically work with up to 30 amps. As long as the connectors mate up properly, you will be able to connect this plug to a 20 amp receptacle without issue. With that being said, I recommend verifying that this will work for your application, as there are several different connector types depending on the amp rating, so it's very possible that you would not be able to plug this into a 20 amp outlet...

• What Can I Do For A Malfunctioning Level Jack If I Have A Couple Of Days Before The Start Of My Trip
• My recommendation would be to replace the broken leveling jack, but it appears you might not have time to have it done. So I think you should get the Leveling Scissor Jack Set - 30" Lift - 10,000 lbs - QTY 2, part # JSC-30, instead. You will get two heavy duty scissor jacks that can be bolted or welded to your 2016 Jayco Pinnacle 36 FBTS. Each of the jacks is rated for up to 5,000 lbs. You will not be able to lift your fifth wheel with this jack, but you should be able to pair it with the...
