Sorry guys. I forgot to post back up I replaced with the black and left an additional 3/4"-1" to push in. The cutters Patriot shared the link on were awesome. I did the work prior to the Rally.

Got tired of paying for Garmin upgrades. Use my phone with Waze, Mapquest, or Google Maps. Usually have Benchmark maps for specific states, but this fall trip would require purchasing 6, so with one time use not worth it We have 2 Atlas's in the cab, and are more than comfortable with maps. We also pick up state maps from AAA. Never felt out of my comfort level.

Northwest parks late summer, early fall
John Dorrer replied to Dennis and Melissa's topic in General Discussion
Nice Itinerary . I sure wouldn't pull out if it snows. Enjoy the White Stuff. You have the trailer for it 😊 -
Picked up beer at the Kalispell brewery and camped at Whitefish State Park back in 2021. Last trip with our truck camper before getting Jolli Olli. We will be at the KOA in Polson, MT on Flathead Lake at the end of August on our way to Washington, Oregon, California, Nevada, and Arizona.

When you get a chance to have a little fun with a couple of analytical brains that happened to be in mind overload and wandered off the trail, I couldn't resist🤣🤣 -
Nice. Great travel break.

Remove the rain seal on the awning?
John Dorrer replied to John E Davies's topic in Ollie Modifications
Definitely have to be careful, thoroughly wash with soap and water and then apply a spray of ceramic coating. Haven't had any that wouldn't come off with soap and water.- 107 replies

I have used 303 products for years and have their streak remover. I have been washing on a regular basis after a trip and have not had the issue for a couple of years😊- 107 replies

In the down position you will more than like have worse damage. This is the first time this has come up and definitely doesn't need a knee jerk reaction. Should it happen, probably not. A service ticket is the correct action for now. There is a good reason storing it in the up and locked position. Sorry you experienced this. Missed that this was on a 2023 post. Thought this was recent🙃

Great view. 👏👏

Detail-Cleaning the MaxxFan Ventilator
John Dorrer replied to Galileo's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
Getting water in the motherboard has caused numerous fan failures. We remove the screen and with a hex the fan blade. They go into house to be washed with hot water and soap. I then use a moist paper towel to wipe the fan housing. -

300 Amp Optifuse keeps tripping
John Dorrer replied to aaronorange's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
When I went to loosen the nuts on the breaker posts, I found them loose. I used locktite. I now wonder whether the breaker was actually bad. When I pulled cable ends off the breaker posts, I found them to be pitted, which leads me to believe there was arching due to loose connections. I gave both cable ends a good spray of DioxIT D5, both sides and two applications. I let them dry before re-installing the cable ends onto the posts. I used Green Locktite, per Jason E. I tightened everything as tight as possible I waited 24 hours for the Locktite to set-up before turning the power back on. As mentioned in an earlier post everything works normally. Lesson learned. Check all electrically connects at the beginning of the year. There probably wasn't anything wrong with the breaker, just loose connections. Since I purchased 2, I decided to install a new breaker. It appears what happened was Owner error for not checking the connections.
