Upgraded my toyhauler to a 2020 Salem 190RT FSX. My old toyhauler was a 16 foot Dream Shak fishhouse. I enjoyed traveling enough that a figured a little bigger trailer would be nice. I like to travel to COE campgrounds and motorcycle around during the day. Hope to do some boondocking on BLM...

Hi there, We've owned 2 popup campers and a Hybrid Camper. We just purchased a 2011 Sunseeker 2560S and are going to pick it up and drive it 3 ½ hours home tomorrow. I've had a wonderful time on the Keystone Forum learning and sharing things there and look forward to the same here. I did a...

Hello, my name is Larry Lockwood and my wife's name is Debbie Lockwood. We just purchased our previously loved Forest River Motorhome a couple weeks ago (10/29/2023) from a private party in VA. We live in Finksburg, MD which is in Carroll County. We previously owned a 32-foot tow trailer...

Has anyone operated their roof motors manually? I'm a little confused by the process. Apparently you use a cordless drill and a flexible shaft (supposed to come with the camper). I only see a port for the flexible shaft on one of the motors (the left front). Does this operate all 4? This...

In preparation for a first time motorhome, Class C, trip from Wisconsin to Denali NP in 2024, can anyone recommend a shop to change my oil? Fairbanks isn't too far away, Anchorage is a possibility, I can do goggle searches and research just wondering if anyone might have some experience in...

Guys, just a quick post on landing gear shearing pins and other problems. I have had similar issues as many of you with Shear Pins on the landing gear system breaking, and the landing gear struggling or tripping breakers to lift off the truck. In my scenario it seemed to nearly stop the motor...

I have a 2022 Dynaquest XL model 3801 that needs to be winterized. Problem is getting the antifreeze to be pumped into pipes and appliances, I thought all I had to do was put the hose that was already connected into the jug and turn the valve to antifreeze and start the water pump. The...

When the steps either extend or retract, the motor will continue to run for 3-4 seconds after the travel is complete. You can hear it making a thunking sound like the motor gear is slipping teeth. Originally this only happened when retracting but now does it both ways. Is this something that is...

To Brian Clemens- We’ve had 3 front slide motor failures on our 2022 Dynamax Isata 3 FW causing us to be totally stranded on a couple occasions. We thought we purchased the top premium brand on the market so we could enjoy years of trouble-free travel. It shouldn’t be a lot to ask, but It’s been...

Packing up to leave Lake Placid and went to bring the slide in and the front side stopped after about 8 inches. Back side still moves in and out. Front side doesn't move at all. I have the high torque motors. I tried the manual override. I had a couple of guys from the campground try to push on...

Does anyone know how to best access slide motors on bed slide? 2022 Georgetown 36B5 Lippert SlimRack System Thank you!

My step stopped working after 18 years. After spending an hour diagnosing and an hour of disassembling, I found that a wire was pinched by a screw from the factory and waited until last week to actually short. The step was blocking access to the motor and controller. I had to remove two...

Hi, I have a 2020 Nobo, 19.6, I bought it in 2020 and the Dometic 9100 awning motor failed. It was replaced under warranty, and now my second one is failed. I couldn’t get the awning in, the day before vacation. I was told by the RV repair person that came to my house, It was because I had the...

Does anyone know what kind of caulk was originally used by FR between the windshield and front cap on FR motorhomes? I have to replace the caulk over my windshield and driver's door. The previous owner used something different over the original caulk and it turned gray and stayed very soft. I...

To all forest River owners check your slide out motor mounts. Mine broke off this weekend.

Our awning is extended and it will not retract. The motor is working fine and the manual bolt is spinning, but it will not retract the awning. Any advice on what the issue is?

I have a 2011 Berkshire 390BH and my entry step motor would continue to run after steps where fully retracted after some research and reading I found out that the motor stops when it sees a spike in voltage which happens when the step is fully extended or fully retracted by stalling the motor I...

I currently have a Winnebago Journey Diesel Pusher with a Cruiser Lift motorcycle carrier on the rear and a custom front 2" receiver attached to the frame on the front end. I use the latter mostly for a dual bicycle rack but have also used it as a trailer hitch for parking a trailer in tight...

Hi all. Just joined the forum. We purchased a 2015 SS1200 3 days ago. (the 1995 Shadow Cruiser is on the block...we decided to get something made this century) Question about the roof motor(s). When I raise the roof the motor seem very slow and anemic. I don't know what's "normal"...

So, bit of a storm came out of nowhere, and the winds got high, I was actually holding the forward awning arm so the wind would ruin anything, guess you can’t retract in gusting winds. Now the awning motor doesn’t sound so good. Any one have this issue and what did you do to fix it? The arm...

Hi Brian, Camping World- Wilsonville replaced the rear motor for the large slide-0ut, per your E mail. for the second time on our 2022 Dynamax. We still are afraid to use this slide-out unless we have easy access to a service center so that we don't get stuck out on the road. Is there an...

I need to replace the lens on one of the marker/clearance lights on the front of my class C Sunseeker. I'm willing to replace the whole unit with an LED light, but I can't seem to find ones that are oval shaped like what I have. Has anyone done this and found the right part?

I didn’t know if this topic has been discussed before but……. Over the years I continue to see countless reports of tires exploding, or whatever the term is for sudden tire failure, sometimes with various accompanying photos. Does it seem these failures happen way more often on trailers (and...

Have a roof lift motor with an internal failure. Looked for a replacement. Found the following site with replacement motors: https://smithrichards.com/
