The last 2 pictures of the prior post shows the problem with the drive and tag axle. The fronts appear to be OK, the weight of the media in the Centramatics appears to be light, but I will check them on my postage scale tomorrow morning. Regards, Bob

At Cooperstown for the long weekend. I checked with the office, September 20, through the 23 works, so if anyone is interested in a fall gathering that would be the time. Only the wooded sites are available and as you know if you have been there space is limited, first come first serve. Regards, BobClick image for larger version

I finished running the cell range extender wiring through the ceiling to the cabinet above the TV/ceiling. I also installed the automatic paper towel dispenser......one of the items that had been bothering me for a while. I also hard wired the remote control for the inverter which is mounted above the inverter outlet on the kitchen wall. I’m in negotiations right now with a person that had (6) 761002 rims unpolished. I only need one, I’m waiting for pictures to make sure I can polish them and I’ll be satisfied. I’ll have (5) available if anyone needs them. Regards, Bob

LOL, no remote for the paper towel dispenser, Mike, but after you tear the paper towel off , it sucks the excess back into the unit for a clean look. You might want to think about getting one.....it’s pretty cool ! On another note......enjoying my last full day hear in the “ RAIN” at Cooperstown, finished installing the new I Pad holder which doesn’t wobble like the first one I put in......the ride home will prove me right or wrong, and I installed a toggle switch to keep the back up camera on when I want.

I will be staying at Pennwood Saturday night on my way to Kentucky, I need a week of R&R. I like the Daniel Boone National Forest. We will be staying at Twin Knobs campground in the town of Morehead......you just can’t make these names up. The performance of the 370LE has been great. I’m planning on staying off the interstates.....they all seem to suck anyway, it’s either road construction with massive delays or a crappy road surface to drive on. It’s nice to have the ability to cruise at 75 MPH, but you also miss a lot ! Regards, Bob

We made Kentucky in 2 days.....(LONG). We took PA 6 from route 17 in NY to Route 66 in PA to Pennwood. 12 hours. Left Sunday morning 9:30 arrived Twin Knobs 6:30 PM. Very hot here, but we were able to get the same spot F20 as last year. The performance of the 370LE is awesome, I am very happy, cruising speed on the highway is 70 - 75 MPH. I am eager to get the centramatics, the manufacturer should be done with them this week and I’ll get them on in August. I should have known I had a problem with the battery system before I left. One of the fuses was blown on the Intellitec solenoid for the engine battery before I left, I replaced the fuse. In Kentucky I had no response from the switch inside the entry door for the engine battery. The previous fuse that was blown was still good, but the Intellitec BD2 switch in the wall is bad. I had to move the battery cable for the engine start battery to the other side of the solenoid so that it is always on.......no problem. The Intellitec is still available so I ordered the new wall switch and 2 new solenoids to replace the originals......no complaints. It’s been so hot here another minor electrical problem has cropped up. While driving although the dash AC works awesome, the rest of the motor home is hot. If trying to run both roof ACs the load from the Powermax battery charger which is hooked to the 20 amp circuit breaker on the generator trips. This may have something to do with the solenoid problem, but I will talk to my generator guy at Cummings when I get back. The generator in the 370LE is an Onan 6500. The 2 circuit breakers are 30 and 20 amp. The one that trips is the 20 amp. I could replace the 20 amp with a 30 and I realize that the 2 (30) amp circuit breakers equal 7200 watts at 120 volts, or I could just shut the powermax off and probably be OK.....more to follow, Regards, Bob

That's a really nice job Bob. I hope yours lasts longer than mine. The controller board went out after a few weeks. Trying to find a replacement controller but the part isn't listed separately. PIA.

Woah there, something went horribly wrong

What's with the giant blob of solder, is that shorting things out?
