    Need a fridge...anyone parting out a mid 80's Hilo?

    On my 2006 Hi-Lo I had to replace control board in the Dometic refrig. The refrig was not cooling on any mode. I purchased the control board thru Dinosaur Electronic, Inc online. It was not hard to install and have had no problems since.

    Hello from St. Louis

    Do not know city rules where you live but here in Ft Worth you are allowed to park the camper for 72 hours in the street at the curb. This is for loading and unloading, etc. Not sure if your HOA has any control over that.

    Painting the walls

    On my 1990 Hi-Lo I used a big hair dryer to warm up the paper as I pulled it off. It was actually on the ceiling and was more of a stretchy vinyl than paper. Once off, I primed and then painted the panels blue. Was easy and did not take a lot of time. The heat was the trick.

    Frustrating

    I had one break under my sink in my 1990 22 footer and went to Home Depot and a clerk showed me the connector to put the pipe back together. The pipe just plugs ( or snaps into) the new fitting and you are done. No glue, etc

    Can't find leak

    Remove the kitchen sink cabinet bottom and there is a 2 or 3 inch space between the bottom flooring of the cabinet itself and the actual camper flooring and you will find the water lines that are inside the camper. When mine was leaking most of the water was running off at the outside edge of...

    Where can I buy a Solenoid for Lift motor

    Where can I buy solenoid for lift motor? My 2004 Towlite 22T would not lift up this morning. The moment I touched the up switch I heard what sounded exactly like a gun shot from a pistol. Top would not move. I jumped the solenoid and could hear motor run. Had to manually raise top.

    Looking at a 1995 FunMaker
