Hello I am looking to order a cover for the winter for my camper. The problem is, it's at the dealer getting some warranty issues taken care of so I can't get a true measurement. Does anyone with this camper know what the length is or which cover will fit? Thanks for the help!

So we love our 286RL and want to explore using it in the winter. I have it winterized now and read you can simply use RV antifreeze in the pump for the toilet and then drain out as usual. I assume you just put the winterizing hose into a gallon of RV antifreeze and let the pump draw from...

We just purchased this fall and are looking into covers for outdoor storage here in Indiana. Any perspectives on the best cover please let me know. Something custom fitted would be nice.

We are stranded in west Texas with a broken leaf spring. We have found a mechanic who will travel to us for a huge price, but we need the part number so he knows what to bring. Can anyone help? Where can I find this part number? We cannot get the leaf spring off at all to look at the part...

I have a 2007 Salem LA 246RLBS. I would like to know the position of the 3-way valve for by-passing the water heater. The picture shows the valve in the Normal position for providing hot water to the RV. The valve knob can be rotated 180 degrees clockwise and stopped anywhere in between 0-180...

Hey folks, I just signed the papers on an order for a 286RL Hemisphere, I currently have a Jayco 264BHW that was bought as a single mans weekend place on the coast and moved to the ranch during the winter, but I'm not single and we've been using it more as a proper RV and not just a climate...

The tongue jack failed on my brand new (mid summer 2021 manufactured date) Salem 178BHKSX! I purchased this new less than a month ago. I have not even taken it out for a spin yet. This happened when repositioning it in my driveway. Tanks were empty and no added weight inside. When jacking it...

We have a new Salem Hemisphere 378fl. I have had several RVs and I am perplexed! I have a black holding tank valve. I have a gray water valve. But I found a third valve sticking out of the frame high and right of the gray water valve. Does anyone know what's this valve for? Thanks!

Hello, just picked up camper (salem 31kqbts) yesterday 9/20/21. In opening it up at home on 110v to check things out more closely than at the dealership, I noticed there was no power at the outlets, pressed the test on the GFCI and it popped, but now it will not reset. Everything else seems to...

Does anyone know if the front storage can be made into a pass through and a second door be installed on the passenger side?

Can you drill and mount things under the control panel?

We have a 2014 Salem and can’t seem to figure out what and where operates the awning. My friend is using it and we’ve never had it out.

Anyone use a generator off grid for this model? If so what size is appropriate when we have a solar panel installed as well with 2 batteries? Trying to guess my timelines on how long before I’m outta power.

has anyone else had this problem? My 2020 Salem has the enclosed and heated underbelly. The panels are plastic and very poorly engineered. I've already had 2 of them crack in half and catch wind while towing down the highway. I had one replaced under warranty, now that I'm a little over a...

Hello, I recently purchased a Salem 2021 31KQBTS. I’ve used it twice so far and both times after using the water in the camper, there is a wet spot in the back corner of the bunkhouse on the floor. I pulled the drawers and cannon locate leaking lines directly in the area of the wet spot. I also...

Recently went camping and everything on my salem cruise lite 273qbxl worked fine. Came home parked and unhooked. When I unhooked I had no battery power. Nothing works at all. When plugged into shore power or into truck everything works fine. Checked fuses all are good. I just bought camper...

Looking to find the mattress size for the main bedroom. I know the "easy" answer is the Google it, which I already have and found nothing. I could also just simply measure, but the camper is in storage and I want to order a replacement without having to go to storage. Any help would be...

Hello all, First post (hopefully in the right section). Wife and I just purchased our first TT, a (new to me) 2019 Salem 27dbk. Excited to take it on our first trip in 2 weeks and doing a rundown of all the functionality now that we have it home. One of the items that I've not been able to...
