  • What Fuses Need To Be Pulled To Flat Tow A 2014 Chevy Equinox LTZ 6-Cylinder
  • According to the GM Technical Service Bulletin 17-NA-348, GM has identified 4-cylinder models of this vehicle as having steering instability issues while towing. If you have a 4-cylinder model of this vehicle, you will need a # RM-76517 instead of a # RM76511, and will need to leave fuse DLIS #32 intact and pull the ABS module fuse located under the hood. Note: due to manufacturing variances, some 4-cylinder models may label the ABS module fuse as #15 or #16. This information is current...

  • Finding the Correct Replacement Screen For a Roof Vent on a Thor Four Winds 30D
  • Unfortunately, your RV information does not indicate what vents/screens that you would have. That being said, 14"x14" vents are significantly more common than 13"x13". The replacement screens that we carry, like the Replacement Screen Frame with Screen # BVC0573-32 which fits the Ventline Ventadome Roof Vent # V2119-603-00 fit inside a 14"x14" roof vent, the screen itself is not 14"x14". The easiest way to identify the correct replacement parts is with model numbers. If you can provide...

  • Do I Have to Drill Holes in My 2018 Ford E-450 Frame to Install Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar
  • Thanks for reaching back out and pointing out the video you found that in! I checked out the video you referenced about the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-147 install on a 2019 Ford E-Series Cutaway (see linked) and while Ryan did ultimately install the links back to where the factory ones were located, he only did so because he was unable to properly drill and install the links into the vertical position like the instructions called for. The sway bar will still work like this...

  • 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.

  • Longer Mattress Solution to Replace Short Queen Size
  • Since you want the slightly longer queen size mattress the best solution might be the Denver Mattress Supreme Euro Top part # DE38ZR which has rounded edges on the bottom which will work better in the limited area you mentioned having with the slide retracted. Flexing the mattress a little bit won't hurt it.

  • 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...

  • How Much Contact Should There Be with the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs SSR-130-47
  • In regards to the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-130-47, the amount of contact or engagement will vary by application and we unfortunately cannot inform of this for any one particular application since there are so many variables. That said, typically for the cab and chassis model springs you'll want them to engage just slightly with the weight vehicle. If you have a gap you can fill this with the included spacer until you make contact with the axle. That said, it's okay...

  • Can an External Tank Be Added to the Champion 5,000-Watt Inverter Generators to Extend Run Time
  • No, per the manufacturer they do not recommend adding extended run-fuel tanks and caps to the already existing fuel system; doing so would be done at your own risk. The Champion 5,000-Watt Inverter Generators w/ Parallel Kit # CH39FR does feature an economy mode that reduces engine noise and conserves fuel to increase run time.

  • How To Wire In The Monitor Light For The Roadmaster InvisiBrake Supplemental Braking System
  • The monitor light for the Roadmaster InvisiBrake Supplemental Braking System # RM-8700 would need to be grounded to the chassis of the motorhome. The LED light and audio signal will both have a wire to run down to the chassis and another wire to run over to the towed vehicle to connect to the cold side of the brake light switch. To accomplish this you'll most likely need to extend to wire to run it down to the chassis and then use a ring terminal and self tapping screw to connect the wires...

  • Can Adhesive Be Used to Install the Vehicle Mounting Bracket Kit for Thule HideAway Awnings
  • I mean in theory yes, you can use some double sided adhesive to install the Vehicle Mounting Bracket Kit for Thule HideAway Awnings # TH1500602390, however since it's not been tested or tried in that way, we can't guarantee how it'll hold up long term like if you were to use the mounting screws.

  • 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.

  • Can Lippert Ground Control part # LC358590 be Reset After Battery Replacement
  • To manually reset your Lippert Ground Control part # LC358590 you need to hold down the retract and enter buttons at the same time. Try that but if you still get an error code you most likely have a low voltage battery that needs to be charged. Or if that's not it the wiring of the system needs to be checked out.

  • 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...

  • Are Other Parts Needed When Installing A Complete AC System
  • If you're installing the Advent Air RV Air Conditioner System # ADV94FR as a second unit that's completely separate you'd most likely only need to purchase some wiring to go from the controller to wherever you plan on mounting the thermostat and just some electrical connectors to complete your connections. If the space doesn't have AC wiring ran to it then you would also have to run the wire and install a circuit breaker in your power center in order to power the system. You wouldn't...

  • 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.

  • 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...
