Rv Refrigerator Wont Stay Lit

Hey Guys Real Quick Here if you have a Dometic or Norcold Rv Refrigerator and have problems with it staying lit the first thing you should be checking is that the burner is not covered with foreign debris before you hire someone follow my step by step to see if i can save you some money

Step 1: Remove the Vent Cover on the exterior of the Rv

Step: 2 The Burner has a little tiny sliding metal piece moves back and forth with some effort sometimes it has a small screw in it remove the screw and open it so you can see in the burner

you might need a flashlight..

Step 3: take compressed air and blow out the burner keep in mind the unit should not be turned on at this point after blowing it out for a few minutes go and turn on the refer and see if it fixed your problem...


What Do I need to Flat Tow My Car Behind My Rv

The Practice of towing a car behind a motor home is still the most convenient way For Rvers to get around.. Rather then unhooking your Rv from the camp site you can simply unhook your towed cars set up..


Question 1: What do I Need to Flat tow behind a Rv ?

Answer: This question can be answered several different ways lets answer it the simplest way we can tho..   You Will First need to make sure your car is Flat towing capable with all four wheels on the ground, Check your owners manual..

then you need to decide which company you will go with We Recommend the Following companies
Roadmaster Inc

Blue Ox

Now lets say you went with Roadmaster and you have a 2016 Jeep Wrangler That you Want to Tow here is everything you need to tow that particular car.. we are going to build a package on a budget cause we all like to save money

We would use a Falcon 2 Tow bar a 1432-1 Roadmaster Mounting bracket and a Invisibrake 8700 for the braking system. And a Falcon Tow Bar combo Kit Combo kit includes: Wiring kit with 4 Hy-Power Diodes Marine grade vinyl tow bar cover Flexo-Coil or straight power cord 1 pair of 6,000 lb capacity safety cables 2 keyed alike padlocks A bracket to mount the power cord socket Marine grade vinyl storage bag to store accessories.. Ok So now We have everything we need to tow but we must first have it installed .

picking a Roadmaster Dealer to Purchase or Install your Tow package

Good news if you go to Roadmaster's Website they have a dealer search section..

If you choose to install it yourself follow all the instruction very carefully..

Ok so now Our Jeep is all set up and ready to go on its first adventure..

we recommend that when you hook your Tow Car up the first time and every time after that you use a check sheet or checkoff list..

this will prevent you from missing anything so take notes and pay attention to the dealer or installer when they are giving you a demo.

So in conclusion here is a list of what we think you will need to flat tow based on our experience


1 tow bar roadmaster or blue ox

1 mounting bracket roadmaster or blue ox

1 braking system if your car is over ther weight limit for any states you might travel to

Problem Customers Brakemaste 9060 was installed in the slide-out and once the customer opened the slide-out you guessed it the wires and airline all ripped out of the unit..

Well Today was a long day. Customer complaint rv black waste tank will not drain.

Solution found that it was indeed clogged and not a broken knife valve.

after 2 hours of trying to unclog it we were able to get it to start draining but then it clogged up again:(

so we kept at it for 6 hours and after 6 hours we were able to get it completely drained and the sensors read empty customer said they have never read empty since she bought it.

now we just have to get the extended warrantty company to foot the bill somehow..
