According to Service Dept the board part # for my MaxxAir is : 10C21275K I've ordered and perhaps will do a video for install though there are a ton already on YT etc. I will be doing some extra water-proofing. thx y'all

My MaxxAir main cabin fan seems to have a bad main board. Internet says that in order to get the model number of the fan I'll need to climb on top of the coach as the model number is not accessible from within. Perhaps someone has already done this exercise and can share the model # of the fan install in the '19 E2? I have a ticket in with Service as well but I don't know if Oliver tracks that sort of info for individual model years. We'll see. thx

I'm not following how the last few posts to this thread have anything to do with the curbside window and how it might have water between the panes. Perhaps the issue of a less-than-good install of the rear window deserves its own thread?

Your eyes are better than mine. I looked at those pictures a couple of times and came away thinking they were not even for an Oliver! Back to the original topic, I live in a town of about 30k with a couple of glass shops and an RV repair place and nobody will touch my window repair. There's another town nearby of about 100k and with a Camping World and so I suppose I'll call down there and see what I can find out. Just documenting for posterity / anyone in the future who has this issue...

Thanks, Frank. I guess I'll call Parts on Monday and see what it would run for a new.

Hey, y'all. In doing my Spring maintenance work I've noted that my EII's curbside sliding window has a leak and there's now water in between the panes. Curious if anyone else has seen this -- I've read about windows leaking but don't see anything about water inside the pane -- and have any advice as to where I might order a replacement and if I should try to do the swap myself? I imagine these are probably standard-sized windows. Hope that's not wrong.

I have some left-over silicon mat from another project and I'm going to cut a piece to cover that hole for when I reinstall the composter.

I didn't realize that's what those were! I did find a little drain -- I guess that's the other side of the "scupper" you mention -- under the North dinette seat but that whole area doesn't really look like its designed to be handle any sort of *real* moisture. To your point. Sort of a surprising design honestly. I guess I'll check to see if the hardware store has some sort of plug that might fight in that hole without making it really hard to remount the composter. Thx!

I did crawl around under the trailer today looking for any sort of drain for the hull area where the black tank sits and I didn't see much of anything.

I'm also going to pull @John E Davies into this thread since he has an old thread about doing the install himself, is extremely thorough, and I'm sure he considered the consequences of getting water in this portal to the black water tank. John, I hope that's ok. I tried to flatter you a little to smooth it over if not. ;)

I'm doing Spring cleaning. I've removed the composting toilet and I'm looking at the hole in the hull which is above the port for my (unused) black tank and which would normally be under the composting toilet. There's really no gasket around the bottom of the composting toilet and thus I would expect that water from the shower must get under the toilet, drop down onto the black tank, and thus there must be a drain under there somewhere, yes? Looking at the manuals, it *kinda* looks like that is the case. To be honest the reason why I'm asking is I would like to be able to do all of the cleaning and then rinse down the bathroom and not have to worry that any water which dropped down over the black tank would then be trapped in the hull. Thx y'all.

In fairness to the manufacturer of the pump, I was full timing for 2+ years and cooked and washed dishes nearly every night in a hard water area. I'm sure I blew through the typical mean-time-between-failures. I'm actually very curious to see what it looks like inside.

Both of the ones I've had made a bit of sound but by the end the OEM-installed one was making *much* louder noises. And after I installed the new one it was a ton quieter. I think the video doesn't do well to demonstrate the sound level. Before I remove the old one it was chattering enough to make me, as a bit of a motorcycle mechanic, uncomfortable. Visions of the pump internals being shredded. 😉

I turned off the valve just on the other side of the pump and then opened a faucet for a second. It spilled a little bit of water when I opened it but not much. Nothing a wash cloth couldn't handle.

Thanks, folks. The 60A was easy to find. I've not yet located the 20A for the pigtail ... just some 30s under the bunk and the 10s under the dinette seat. I'll keep looking.

I had my doubts about that 30A breaker being relevant. I'll have to go back through the manual to spot the location of that 60A. I did see it in the key of one of the diagrams but didn't see its placement. Thx

So both my bathroom and overhead fans on my '19 EII seem to have failed. I see that at least on the overhead this is commonly a moisture issue and usually involves a board replacement (and some custom water-proofing work). Anyone have a recommended place to order a replacement bathroom fan and the board for the overhead MaxxAir? Given the "supply chain issues" I've had with motorcycles etc these last two years I'm inclined to just order complete replacement units and then pull the existing units for later refurb and or parting out for the parts shelf. Thx

I forgot to update this thread. I ended up ordering a new water pump and replacing and everything seems a lot better. I may go through the old pump soon and rebuild it just to have a somewhat trustworthy spare on the shelf.

Hey, folks. I need to disconnect power from the trailer pigtail in order to clean the contacts and also to do a better job of water sealing that whole apparatus. Looking at the manual and wiring diagrams it seems to me like if I'm trying to be careful I should not only flip the 30A main breaker under the dinette but there's also a breaker that sits between the the 7-way and the batteries which should be flipped. Correct? Did I miss anything? Thx

Congrats on the new rig! Glad you found the thread useful. Please make sure not to miss the Shower Beer section. 😉 I'm no longer full-timing and about 2 weeks ago I emptied the trailer while doing some routing maintenance. It took like 3 days to organize all of the junk I had been carrying in the Oliver for full-timing. Some of which I had put in there the first week I rolled out, never used, and then prompty forgotten about until I hauled it out again. So that's a data point at least. 😉

Thanks for the tip. I'll give it another run this weekend and let the thread know...

Interesting...I wondered about the length of the house/strength of the pump so I shortened my hose a bit and then put the jug on the bumper. Haven't made a difference for me either. I guess I'll call Oliver service this week to see if they have any ideas.

Not strictly about storage but more about space-efficiency. And, besides, I started this thread and it has been roughtly since we were talking about "shower beers" since it has been offtopic. 😜 So when I was full-timing I never really did come up with a way to handle dish drying that satisified my. I ended up stacking 2 drying mats on top of the the open area next to the sink with a bit of overlap over the stove cover. 2 mats because it helped soak up any wetness and keep the counter + stove from getting anything beyond moist and *not* a catch tray because I didn't find one that would store well. Today while watching a video on re-seasoning cast iron I stumbled across a video where I spotted this.... : https://www.amazon.com/LLygezze-Large-Stainless-Drying-Kitchen/dp/B01HRJ5HI6/ref=sr_1_5 There are similar work-alikes on the site. I ordered one for my kitchen though I will definitely take in on trips with the trailer too to see how this compares.

Ha ha! No dumb questions. For sure. It's one of the first things I looked at when I wasn't getting the expected results. You know what I didn't check though? If the hose or the filter on the inlet port somehow clogged after getting enough fluid to flush the cold in the kitchen. I will have to check that when I get back out there today. I can't imagine how it could have since the hose is quite short and was inserted directly into a fresh A/F bottle but...

That's the interesting part. It went down to about half of the jug and that's when I got the cold water winterized in the kitchen. Nothing else has moved the line in the jug. I'm rather flummoxed. I'm considering just taking the trailer to low-elevation NV for the winter(It's not far...lol).
