My wife said that when I cut power at the post, the TV went off but the stereo stayed on. Since the stereo operates off 12 volt that makes sense. She turned it off and we left. At the rally it wouldn't turn on. I will look for paper clips

Today at a campground, I turned off the 30amp at the power pole, and forgot the stereo and TV were still on. Got to the Rally and my wife tried to turn on the stereo and TV. The stereo is black, on/off button is still in. Checked the fuse and it looked good. Tried the reset and nothing. Spoke to Furrion Technical Support. Pulled the wiring harness and tried the multimeter and prongs were to big to make contact. 12 volt outlets work so I'm getting 12 volt. Any ideas?

Appears 2 have replaced with the FreshJet, but they did things differently. As noted in another comment, one didn't reuse the condensate lines and the one chose to reuse the inside part while the other replaced the entire unit on the roof and inside
-
I think 2 have. There are something's that were different during installs. One person opted not to reuse the condensate lines. They didn't want to break a seal and add another gasket. One reused the inner portion, while another replaced the upper (outside) and inner.

Has there been any info on the Dometic FreshJet AC installs? I couldn't find the posts. Thought there were two owners that switched.

We got home from a shorty trip and to reload for the rally. Trailer was plugged in. A couple hours after getting back, I took stuff out and found the fan beeping. It was off. I pulled the remote out, and before turning it on I took a video. Once turned on the beeping continued for a minute. I looked at the remote and it appeared the battery level in the remote was low. Turned off the fan, checked the batteries and they were below green. New batteries. Turned fan back on. No problems. Is it possible the fan determined low batteries and the beeping was a warning? I find that to be a stretch

Picked up trailer 3/22. Got hearing aids 12/23. This week was our 3rd trip since getting the hearing aids. I sleep on curbside bed. I would sit down or lay down and the picture started pixelating, no sound then it went black. I can sit in the dinette and watch TV or stand in the aisle. I placed the hearing aids in the charger on the nightstand, thinking they were off and just charging. Thought the Bluetooth in the hearing aids were causing the issue. I moved the charger to the dinette and my phone to the outlet over the stove. No further issues. Anyone experience anything like this?

Another great place is Canal Campground, COE. Great water views, and lots of barge traffic. Just off I-24 at Grand Rivers.

Searching for info to reseal large windows

ASI 335 is what Oliver used to caulk the windows and other penetrations -

Thank You Rodney. Changes are hard. Appreciate your efforts and the Oliver Team for re-evaluating the earlier decision. -
Is it possible to convert one of the two 110 exterior plugs to 12v?
-
Wonder how long to tow an Oliver LE-2 coast to coast,maybe 3-4 weeks🤣

We use Blaster products. We have both the silicone and Multipurpose. I use the silicone one on the steps
-
Take the screw to Home Depot, Ace Hardware, or other hardware store and you should find a similar screw, just get a slight larger screw. You might purchase 2 different sizes to insure one grabs the fiberglass. That is very strange. Did you remove the inverter face for some reason previously?

We have TST Flow Thru

We have had a Goal Zero 400 Lithium power pack for 4-5 years. I got it as a back up to run my CPAP if home power goes out. I have taken it on every camping trip from truck camper to Oliver. I store it in the closet. I used the other night when we had severe storms for my CPAP and we charged our phones and my hearing aids. When we take our truck fridge, I use it overnight to power the fridge, and then plug it into 12-volt in the truck to charge it back up. I have their solar panel that I can take, but I find it bulky to take on a trip.

The rubber ones move a lot while driving and we had one developed a small leak. TST say metal stems We switch and haven't had an issue. We used Clark Tire, a large truck tire place. They supplied and installed. I would be concerned with a major failure with rubber. My 2¢

We use the Andersen levelers. I had kinda the perfect storm of owner error. I should have backed up onto them with the thicker end to the back.
-
Didn't have enough chocks and my wife didn't place the Andersen ramp leveler wedges in the correct place. It was a cluster of han error. I will also start greasing the ball. Watched a bunch of YouTube videos. I think this was a case of big time owner error🙃
-
You hit the nail on the head. My wife placed the plastic wedges on the wrong side of the Andersen Levelers. That was just a few of the errors that were made. Next time we will bring our "X" chocks We will also grease the ball. After watching several YouTube videos, I believe that might be a good reason the bulldog doesn't come off the ball smoothly.

F250, no Anderson WD. We use Andersen jack blocks (round ones) and the Andersen ramp levelers for side to side. This is the 3rd campground in a row we needed to level side to side and all 3 times the trailer jumped.
