  • Installation of SoftStartRV Soft Start on Dometic 3105052.041
  • Thank you for providing that picture. In order to install the # SSR54FR on your Dometic AC you will start by removing the white wire coming from the compressor to the run capacitor and connect it to the blue wire on the SoftStartRV. Next, take the black wire from the SoftStartRV and connect it where the white wire was on the run capacitor. The yellow SoftStartRV wire will connect to the red wire at the run capacitor that goes to the compressor. If there is a 2nd red wire going to the...

  • How To Operate the Shade On the Lippert Thin Shade Complete Window Kit
  • In regards to the Lippert Thin Shade Complete Window Kit part # LC806621, the shade is extended and retracted by pulling down or up on the lip at the bottom. Therefore, you don't have to mess with any drawstrings. If you have a screen door on the trailer with mesh top, you'd need to open the screen door and partially step outside the trailer in order to raise or lower the shade.

  • Does The Evechill RV Refrigerator Come With Mounting Brackets To Secure It In Place
  • The Everchill RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer # EV77FR doesn't come with mounting brackets, but I have seen people just some heavier-duty L-brackets and screw it into the back of the unit at the bottom and then in the floor to prevent the fridge from moving.

  • Are Longer Lug Studs Required for Aluminum Wheels on 2008 Flagstaff MAC 228D
  • The Aluminum Hi-Spec Series S5 Trailer Wheel - 13" x 5" Rim - 5 on 4-1/2 - Silver # AM22323HWT will work well on your 2008 Flagstaff MAC 228D. You will not need to remove the current lug studs and trade them out. The current ones will work just fine. There are steel inserts in the aluminum wheels so they will keep the lug nuts from coming loose over time. I recommend using the Lionshead Trailer Wheel Lug Nut - 1/2"-20 - Stainless Steel # LHLR103. You may also want the locking set #...

  • Does Everchill RV Refrigerator with Integrated Ice Maker
  • The Everchill RV refrigerators we carry do not have an integrated water filter. Any filter would need to be an external version like the AquaFresh Exterior RV Water Filter - Qty 2 # A01-1132VP. This is an in-line filter with your water connections. We don't currently carry the model you referenced, but based on my research it doesn't have an integrated filter.

  • Do Trailer Wheel and Tire Combos Require Balancing
  • Our trailer wheel and tire combos do not come balanced nor do they actually require it. There's no noticeable benefit to having trailer wheels balanced and often times the weights just end up bouncing off due to less sophisticated suspension on the trailer so it's not needed.

  • How To Back Off Self-Adjusting Brakes That Are Over-Adjusted
  • The process is essentially the same as manual adjust brakes but is just a bit more challenging because self-adjusting brakes, like the Electric Trailer Brake Assembly # AKEBRK-35L-SA, don't give you any room to work. You would need to lift the metal tab that locks the adjuster sprocket in place with a small screwdriver and turn the adjuster sprocket up if you are looking at from the back of the assembly or downwards if you're looking at it from the front with the hub removed with a brake...

  • How To Wire A Powered Roof Vent In An Area That Doesn't Have Pre-Existing Wiring
  • It is possible that the wires are already ran and you won't have to worry about running wire, it's worth looking into before committing to running wires; the best way to obtain this information is to get your VIN number, and contact the trailer manufacturer. If it turns out that your trailer isn't pre-rigged, then you can use a 12v power source like a battery, and run a black wire for your power and a white wire for your ground to your MaxxFan Deluxe # MA00-07500K. The black wire must...

  • Max Roof Vent Cover Opening for RVs
  • I spoke to my contact at MaxxAir and they informed me that they do not make a vent cover that will allow a roof vent to open the full 12". They were also unaware of another manufacture who does as the 10" height of most roof vent covers is more or less an industry standard. I recommend using the MaxxAir II RV and Enclosed Trailer Roof Vent Cover part # MA76JR for white or part # MA00-955003 for smoke. This roof vent cover will allow for you to open the vent about 10" which again will...

  • Make sure the band clamp of the # SS01 is totally loosened and slid back off of where it would need to slip over the nozzle of the # 278-2204. You can put some dish soap on the nozzle as well to help it slide into the hose which is a tight fit. Try that and see if that helps.

  • Can the Latch on the Valterra Replacemet Cam Lock Be Bent to Clear Weather-Stripping?
  • Since you're only trying to bed the latch # A522VP 1/8" to clear the weather-stripping you shouldn't have any issues as it isn't that much of a bend. While the metal is pliable to be bent, the easiest option would be to use a spacer to give you the appropriate spacing. I recommend just stacking 3/4" washers to get the desired 1/8" spacing.

  • Best Storage Cover for 2019 Forest River Cherokee 294BH For Wet Climate
  • For your 2019 Forest River Cherokee 294BH the best cover for a wet climate is the Adco Tyvek All-Climate Cover part # AD39ZR as this is the correct size and the best for protection against rain. It's not completely waterproof as that would mean that it could hold moisture in which would allow mold and mildew to build up but it does bead water off of it which repels nearly all of it and is also breathable to allow any moisture to dry up.
