thanks for posting this. i have the exact model and the exact problem. would you be able to share the printed instructions with me? i installed the handle but there's no movement at all - the latch isn't moving . thank you

They sell pads on Amazon that I use where my slide rollers come in.

The linkage arm where you said it would just fall out when removing latch does it not have a keeper or clip to hold it on at the bottom?

Thanks. If the ones I bought don't work, I'll try your solution.

What is the material? ABS like the original or something else? I don't see the link posted.

Hello , great video we have the same problem on our Newmar 2015 4366 Dutchstar. Question i also have a problem with the screen in the door coming out of the track , any fix for that ? Thanks

I have an almost identical RV. Two questions. what is your freon suppose to be filled to? I have evans condenser RV218276 I can't tell if this is a parallel flow or fin and tube condenser.

As a master tech, that was painful to watch. The first 5 tests you did could be completed by just jumping the solenoid. 120✓ water in ✓ water in ice tray✓ solenoid working✓ . I don't even have to watch any more then the 1st 2 mins. I'd say your mech is shot. You can also jump the mechanism to easily test that. Typically a 14-12 ga wire to test each feature and timing.

Hi Do you go to the borders of Alaska and Canada at the Pacific Ocean?

Yeah,you did gorgeous traveling! have a nice day, 🎥

Thanks for the video. I'm repairing a portable version for my brother for his office and its almost identical. I was wondering what the purpose of the mastic is for. Is it to seal the heat from the heater element from entering the ice tray space and melting the ice?

PHIL! How are you doing? I was really surprised to see you in this video. Jim (The '73 Step Side). I have a 2005 Bounder 34M that had the refrigerant leak out through a low pressure hose in the front next to the generator. Oil on the rubber at where the metal end is attached it makes me certain that's the problem. I took it to have a new hose installed & the threads on the evaporator are disintegrated. The A/C shop doesn't get into that with RVs. The Freightliner shop said 10 hours labor, which sounds pretty high. I have a friend who is a certified (and very good) welder. I think he can weld a new male threaded piece onto the old one. Probably either weld on another aluminum end like what's there now, or braze on a brass fitting. What do you think? I need a new hose made at the A/C shop anyway.

Thanks for posting. We have a 2003 Newmar Dutch Star D.P. I replaced that device at the top of the door that holds it open so the wind won't slam it shut, last year. Now I need to find out how to disassemble the basement doors so I fix some delamination between the outer skin and the foam core. Apparently(according to Newmar), everything is glued with Stika adhesive. Safe travels

Do you have a video on removing the screen door latch

Can you let me how you wired it? I have a red, yellow, brown, white, thick black and thin black wire on the plug side. The unit has all the same colors except of a thin black it has a yellow with green wire. Did you just hook that up to the thin black wire? TIA

Thanks a million for the helpful option here. JR New Aire 3543

OK I believe you can help me out because my RV is similar to the one in this video. I just bought a used 2003 Newmar Dutch Star 8.3L, ISC 350. Dash AC blows hot air. I tried to add freon and the compressor sized up. I have replaced the compressor and need to replace the receiver drier. I don't know where it is and what part number I need. I know I have an Evans system. I purchased a vacuum and plan on blowing compressed air through the lines. Can you help me find my AC drier?

Very informative video, thanks. I had to have my AC compressor replaced while on a trip. (it seized up) When we went to charge the system, we could not get the compressor light to come on at our control unit. Hence, we could not get the compressor to come on. I've looked for fuses (found it, it was good) and I looked for a low pressure cut off switch. I searched high and low and cannot find the low pressure switch. I'm driving a 2009 Fleetwood Discovery 40X. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

What is the number to the place you called for parts?

How much?

Smooth drawers

Great to see that you’re back to videos. I used some on the last Arizona trip.

Very nice video, well done. Thinking about doing this on my 2017 DS.

Does it hook up to all vehicles like this?

I installed a new ice maker in my Norcold. Temp gets to 6. I checked back on it and nothing but water in the container. Took the ice maker out out of frustration. Turned frig off. Left freezer door open. A day later, with no ice maker and the frig off, it had pumped about 3 inches of water into the compartment. Water pump was on. What gives? Solenoid?

Thank you for the carpet tip. You were right, we did track it down it is mohawk. Follow up question if you don't mind. How's the carpet holding up from the rollers of the slide out? We want to get the same carpet and the color is called Carmelita

This is most ridiculous thing I have seen in a while.

I pray you see this comment, I have a question, one that I thought would've been a simple find, but I have searched the factory manual that came with our Coachman mirada f53 chassis. I have searched everywhere else, and no definitive answer anywhere. -under the dash on passenger side, at feet, is a vent. It has 2 reservoirs, a bottom one, and one that is above it, that has a flap that stas closed on a/c, and lays down on max a/c. On the front of the flap "was" wha I believe is a "sponge." Well, I looked through the vent cover, and water was dripping onto the sponges on the door flap, while on max A/c, so the flap was down. When I touched the "sponge" it was so brittle and crumbly it just scraped off. My question is, is water supposed to drip into those reservoirs that I can see I'm tha vent under dash? I ca feel air sucking into an inch wide hole in middle of reservoirs, one on bottom, and one on top on other side of door flap. Also, whe I go under hood, the black box, has a nipple that is leaking the water, ad I had to attach a hose to it so it would stop running all over the battery, but the black box is dripping water from around the seals/edges as well. So the water that's dripping from that nipple, is it coming from those reservoirs inside that black box? It's the same spot that I see in your video where that silver round thing is hanging, and the nipple where I attached that hose, is hanging right behind that silver metal round part. And also, when searching this up, what is Tha vent or system actually called so I can find a diagram for it, or video. Thanks so much

So our splendid 2100 handle just broke today and I have clothes inside and I guess you have to really work on that latch to get it to open before you can replace it. 🤔 When we ordered the part, the price had gone up considerably with the price of the part in the shipping it came to about $80

Looks like someone been taking drone lessons.

Someone’s frisky.

Is that carpet from factory or did you redo it? Do you recall what pattern and color it is?

Thank you very much your video was extremely helpful.

Hi Dan i have opend the u line ice maker module to change a microswitch. there is a spring on shut off arm now loose!! any idea how it should be put back so the arm function properly. thanks a lot

Do you take off the drive shaft?

hi Dan i am rying to remove this u line ice maker shut off arm. is there a way to do it? tried to push it out in up position , it did not. thanks

hi Dan, sorry to bother you i have replace the whole ice maker with new one as per ur video Itwas working fine till recently stopped making ice. Checked water valve as you directed to Norcold Video. all good. now it makes Ice but does not dispense it!! any suggestions? Thanks

Safety is for people with low breeding.

which way you turn the temperature knob to make it cold

I replaced the ice maker and was working fine then all of a sudden stopped making ice! any suggestion

What size is the bolt 1 inch?

now only made one batch in 10 hours ? any way to expedite shorter time period to make ice?. Thanks

H9 Dan I replace the old ice maker with new one as you instructed in your video. Now it makes ice but does not dispense it to the Ice tray. any suggestion? really appreciated.

where did you get the step material?

Beautiful

how do you make sure the temp probe goes to right place in ice maker when you insert in?

ok, so I can tell you have an old Evans AC evap system. the engineering on these were somewhere between terrible and awful. first, I can see your vent doors are open. I suggest that you permanently close these. I screwed mine shut and then taped over them with some real furnace tape. that keeps the input air from the front of the coach from entering the evap/heater core box.... cold or hot, the AC system is forced to draw the air from inside the coach.... You can even put a filter over the intake....2nd, I replaced my valve with a spring valve new from amazon. so when power is applied it opens fully and I can heat the front of the coach and when it is closed the AC temps reduced. The original valves are poorly designed, often don't close completely and only open 5/16" so one freezes in the winter. Price is stupid high..... lastly, there are newer other coolants that can be used in these old AC systems. I use enviro safe, and my output temp from my dash vents is 36 degrees. Yes, you read that correctly....36 degrees... we carry around with us 30 gallons of propane so don't bother with the Closed AC system will explode bit... I cool the entire front of the coach 2/3rds of the coach... no need for a drape.

Thanks Dan

My uline does not make ice . It gets cold enough but no ice. Replaced the water solonoid valve no ice cube. Any idea. This unit old enough

Looks like an awesome park 😎 One of these days I would like to go to Alaska 😃
