• Is the Signal Booster Necessary for TireMinder i10 TPMS on 28 Foot Motorhome
• TPMS system like the TireMinder i10 TPMS for RVs and Trailers # TM29FR are designed to be used with the included signal booster. This ensures the greatest accuracy and reliability when it comes to the readings from the sensors. The repeater extends the signal and also improves the signal strength to cut through signal interference that comes from surrounding automobiles. According to the manufacturer, the signal booster should be installed on any system that includes it. I have attached...

• Can Go Power Solar Elite Charging System Be Used on Two Different Types of Batteries
• The Go Power Solar Elite Charging System part # 34282184 comes with the Go Power PWM Solar Charge Controller with Bluetooth part 34276119. The Go Power PWM Solar Charge Controller can charge both flooded and lithium batteries and there are separate banks for each of these battery types so you can choose one battery charge type for each battery. That said, the controller does not charge both batteries simultaneously, it charges the battery in bank 1 first and then the battery in bank 2.

• Can a Manual MaxxFan Roof Vent Be Converted to a Powered Unit?
• Unfortunately there is not a kit that that'll convert your manual opening MaxxFan roof vent to a powered roof vent. To get a powered roof vent you'd have to replace the entire unit with a powered unit like the MaxxFan Plus Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan, Thermostat, and Remote # MA00-04500K. This is a powered unit that has a 12V reversible fan that also includes a handheld remote so you can set the thermostat, and change the speed/direction of the fan.

• 12 Volt Charge Line Pin for Motorhome 7-Way
• If you are installing a charge line from the Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Motorhomes # RM-156-75 to use the Extension Cord # HM47054, the 12 volt power line will be the one I pointed out in the accompanying diagram. It will be the pin in the 1 o'clock position if you are facing the 7-way connector from the outside. I have also added a link to a help article on wiring which has this same diagram available.

• Brake Controller Plug Location for 2019 Thor Four Winds 24E Motorhome
• Your 2019 Thor Four Winds 24E Motorhome is built on a Ford E-450 chassis so the plug you're going to need will be located behind the storage (coin) compartment above the radio (see attached). If you don't already have a brake controller I highly recommend the Prodigy P3 # 90195 which will connect to that plug using the Adapter # 3034-P. I really like the P3 because it has an LCD screen that communicates directly what is going on with minimal codes. Attached are some photos for you to...

• Can Camco Gen-Turi RV Generator Exhaust System Bushings Be Welded On For Installation
• I reached out to Camco regarding a weld-on installation of the bushings for the Gen-Turi RV Generator Exhaust System # CAM44461. According to my contact, this is a perfectly acceptable way to install the system. When possible, welding will always outperform something like the clamps that are included when performed by a professional. That would be the most secure way to install this and remove any need for concern.

• Can the eDream Supreme RV Mattress Be Folded In Half
• The eDream Supreme RV Mattress part # e97FR is very similar to the mattress you would find in a bedroom. The main difference is the dimensions which are geared towards RV use. Therefore, you wouldn't be able to fold the mattress in half just like you wouldn't be able to fold the mattress in your bedroom in half. This is a top of the line RV mattress that gives the perfect mix of support and comfort. In order to fold a mattress in half you'd have to forgo this perfect mix of support and comfort.

• How Does Solera Awning Fabric Secure to the Roll Bar
• No, there is not a clip that would have fallen off. The Solera fabrics have a channel that slides into the roller bars to secure the fabric in place. I have included a video from the Solera 10' Replacement Awning Fabric # LCV000334335 that goes over the installation of Solera awning fabric and shows what holds it in place. That part begins around the 6:20 mark of the video.

• Travel Trailer Frame Assembly and Glass
• If it isn't held in with screws there should be some type of adhesive on it; I wish there was an easy way for me to tell you exactly how but realistically there isn't going to be a way that is particularly easy for you to remove your assembly if it is stuck on with adhesive. The Lippert Components 12" x 21" Inner and Outer Entry Door Window Frame with Seal # LC363369 just snaps together so it is possible you may be able to unsnap your assembly as well.

• Instructions for Replacing Ventline Range Hood Fan Motor
• In a Ventline RV range hood such as # S0721-20BD-F-1 you will want to remove the grease filter to access the damaged motor to install a replacement like # BVD0278-00 which uses AC power or # BVD0218-00-R which uses DC power. Of course, make sure power is disconnected. We do not have a video showing the process but I was able to obtain from Ventline the written instructions for motor replacement for DC and AC motors. These have been forwarded to you in a separate email.

• Wiring Installation for Vehicle to Vehicle Taillight Converter
• With 6-pole wiring such as the Pollack plug # PK11604 that you referenced the turn and stop signals are combined together the same way they are with 4-pole and 7-way wiring. There is one pin/circuit for the left side of the trailer and one for the right as shown in the linked diagram. If you want to separate out the stop light from the combined turn/stop signal you can use a converter # 118158 which takes in the combined signals for both sides of the trailer and outputs separate left and...

• Does the Roadmaster Rear Sway Bar Need to Be Installed Completely Parallel to the Ground
• When installing the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-146 you do want the trailing arms of the sway bar to be as parallel to the ground as possible. I can see what you're talking about, and they do look like they're angled slightly upwards. If you watch at the start of the videos where the road test is done, you can get a pretty good idea of what it's supposed to look like when installed. It may not be able to be installed completely level because of different components that are...

• Will Air Bags for a 2018 Thor 24HE Lift the Rear Providing More Ground Clearance
• The correct air bag kit for a 2018 Thor 24HE on a Ford E-350 Cutaway Chassis is the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Spring Kit part # F2061. This system is designed to provide rear end support to reduce sag. It is not designed to lift the rear but in many cases we do see this happens with enough pressure. That said, whether or not it will provide enough lift to prevent bottoming out on any one particular driveway is anyone's guess as the amount of lift and slope of driveway are variables...

• Why Does The Valterra HydroFlush Need To Be Installed On The Top Of The Black Tank
• The Valterra HydroFlush RV Black Tank Flush System # VAL42RB is recommended to be installed on the top of the tank so it's out of the way of everything and isn't a point that solids could get caught on or in the event that the backflow valve failed it'd be less likely to drain the tank. If you don't have access above the tank and don't want to install an access panel in the floor of the motorhome then you can try installing it higher up on the side of the tank to hopefully prevent either...

• Can You Leave The Gray Tank Open For Continuous Draining
• As long as you're hooked up to the sewer there is no reason you can't leave the gray tank open with the SewerSolution Macerator System for RV Waste Tanks - Bayonet Fitting and 4-in-1 Adapter - 10' Item # SS01 since it's only liquids. The black tank shouldn't be left open continuously as solids can build up in the tank if the liquids are continuously draining.

• Can Doors be Removed of 4-Door 14 ct ft Furrion RV Refrigerator
• You are indeed correct that the 24-3/16" depth of the Furrion 4-door fridge is measured with the doors on. As for removing the doors, I contacted Furrion who told me that yes, the doors can be removed on this fridge, which is the following part number: - Furrion RV Refrigerator - 4 Door - 14 Cu Ft # FCR14ACBQABL They said that in order to do this what you'll need to do is unscrew the hinges for the doors, and you'll need to start with the top doors first before you'll be able to remove...

• Does Roadmaster Exact Center Stabilizer for 2018 Thor Four Winds 24F Use More than 150 Ft lb Torque
• The install of the Roadmaster Exact Center Steering Stabilizer part # RM47MR does not require more than 150 ft lbs of torque. It's not a great idea to use a torque wrench as a breaker bar to loosen hardware. And I'm saying that as someone who has borrowed their current employer's expensive torque wrench and done so in the past. It might be fine but it has potential to screw up the calibration of the wrench.
