I don't believe that those hubs are actually "ventilated". Its just the normal ridges around the outside that make it appear so in this picture. Bill

One more thing you might try is to unscrew the head on the shower head. Sometimes that can get clogged. This is why I asked if they had used the water heater bypass. Bill

Try the cold water side first and if that works then do the hot water side. I assume that you turned the water heater bypass on. Bill

There is a great trout fishing spot just outside of Kremmling at the base of the dam - I'm jealous. Its not a very long stretch of water but there are some very nice fish in there. 1 - Even though I would guess that you are traveling during the day when temps are above freezing, I would have my Ollie winterized given the temps you cite. A couple of milk jugs filled with water can be carried in the bath in order to have water for flushing - I assume that you have the standard toilet. 2 - I know very little about the Truma water heater therefore someone that has one should chime in here and/or start reading the instruction manual and Truma posts here on the Forum. 3 - If "bleeding" the system by simply turning on each faucet doesn't work within a fairly short period of time (2 minutes or so) then you probably have a place in your system that is allowing air to enter. Check the fittings on your water input, water pump - filter in particular - and make sure that they are sealed.

Back in the Spring of this year I seemed to be having these same "remote" symptoms again. I don't remember exactly why but while poking around (be careful with poking around given the voltage that is in this area) I found that the negative side cables were loose on the inverter. I simply tightened those up and all returned to "normal". Good luck in finding the real issue. Bill

Bummer! I've never had a valve stem problem on any RV or vehicle I've owner. Glad you replaced them all - it could have been a bad batch. Bill

Most of these protection units are designed to "reset" themselves after a "protection" event. However, I have heard of situations where apparently the cause of the problem was so big that they, indeed, sacrificed themselves.

Not good that the old anode was just wire. Nothing to be done about that now except to be sure that you have flushed out the water heater well. I've been told that the "best" anodes are the magnesium ones - Similar to these - . Bill

I'm sorry to hear about your wife's "issues" 😥. And I've never thought about this kind of "problem" with the composting toilets. Thanks for posting and I sincerely hope that the treatments work and everything gets back to "normal" soon. Bill

Absolutely - reading is your friend. True but the purchase price of one of those fancy toilets sure is a bunch of money to be paid for sitting on an uncomfortable throne and still having to deal with what is not composted human waste. It is also not hard to to use a dump station. Bill

Love your post, love your humor and love the fact that you want to repair this versus just throw it away. Unfortunately, I don't have your part nor is my Ollie handy so I can take pics for you.😢 Good luck! Bill p.s. perhaps a tear filled call to Dometic might induce someone to actually help you? Doubtful but ya never know.

I suspect that since you are already aware of most of the important numbers, you already are aware of the pluses and minuses of this engine and payload problems. Many professionals advise to not exceed 80 percent of the max towing capacity in order to give you a firm safety margin. If you observe that then you are looking at a total Ollie weight of about 6080 pounds. Most LEII's are right at 5,000 pounds when delivered (depending on the options on/in it) which therefore leaves you with roughly 900 pounds that you can put in the Ollie. While the 2.7 engine if surprisingly good, it can only do so much. If you intention is to tow in the eastern US and only rarely go into its mountains then you should be fine. But, this engine will struggle a bit in the Rockies. Give yourself plenty of time and space both for speeding up, hauling up and slowing down, Bill

and, You don't give a damn when they are depleted - at least for a short period of time.😇

On my 2016 Ollie the grommet located on the body of the Ollie is a different size versus the one on the door. I always carry a couple of spares in both sizes with me as they seem to need replacement about every other year. Bill

As far as I know, this is nothing more than a anti-siphon check valve. If that is correct then virtually any check valve of that sort would work as long as the length and the fittings on the end are adaptable. Of course another thing you can do would be to cobble a non-anti-siphon piece of pipe in there until you get home where you can search better for a "better" solution. Certainly you will be very careful with any cobbled together solution and I'd guess that it would be technically illegal in many places. Bill

Inquiring minds just want to know - what was the actual "problem"? Bill

Other than what ANT says above - you are correct - you will need to drill out the rivets to remove the "side extensions" of the twin beds. The night stand removes fairly easily too. Bill

Kansa - I also apologize like JED above but are you sure that the will not reset? Sometimes they can be a bit finicky when you push in that reset button. It is a bit unusual for a GFI as new as yours is to be faulty (but certainly it can and does happen).

Looks to me like #3 in the attic.

Do you have a fuse sub-panel in your attic?

OR, if you don't remember to have your face and/or private parts out of the direct line of that anode rod!😬

OK - that does help narrow the possibilities. Can you get "over the air" TV? If yes, then you do have an antenna somewhere. And, therefore, a booster switch - somewhere. If no, then I would assume that you have a coaxial connection issue. Bill

Nice looking truck too! Sorry you had the tire trouble. Did you pick up a nail in it? Bill

Actually I was asking - how long did you let the batteries "rest" (with no load) AFTER you charged them up to the 6.75 volts. The answer to this question would shed light on how well the batteries are holding a charge. Bill

Michelin stopped making the tire. Papa Bean counter had nothing to do with it. Bill
