I have all of mine grounded, except in the bedroom. There’s no way to run a wire thru the styrofoam insulated wall, and no way to go in behind it, and I don’t want an external wire.

So it has no ground. Yet, it’s still works. Just has to “warm up”. Takes a few minutes, but then it responds. Stays working fine until you turn it off again for too long. Try it.

Nice to know it doesn't exactly need a ground then. Wonder if all RV dimmers work like that, as the one I was looking at said it needed a ground.

I'm sorry that this has taken so long, but I'm sure you'll be happy with it compared to that ridiculous screw! I even took one of the new ones cuz I improved on the design a bit.

If anyone else wants one, just send me a private message with your address.

I cannot thank you enough. Got home from the shakedown trip this weekend to find this waiting for me on my doorstep. I knew the dealership was not going to "mail me a replacement" and this is so much better than that screw, or the bungee cord I used for the shakedown.

It was asked earlier, but I did not see a reply. Do you like coffee or some other joint? Whatever you prefer.

This is like Christmas! Can’t wait...You send him coffee, I’ll send some other “joint”.

I’m glad you like it! Thank you for the kind words.

Seriously, they’re freebies! People have given so much great information in this LOOOOONG thread, and I just wanted to say “Thanks!”

Side view camera installed. I put it in about the same location as the newer INTENT’s that were lucky enough to come with them stock.

Nice. Looks like it’s about time you updated your list of mods in your profile. I’m sure it’s WAY out of date...

Wyatt,
This was too funny and I have to share...when the postal worker was typing in your address, he looked up at me and asked if I made up this address.
Huh? I laughed. He asked again, saying there's no such zip code. I showed him your message. While laughing, he told me that my friend doesn't know his own address and changed the last digit to a 2.

If anyone else wants one, just send me a private message with your address.

-Robb

Enough said, for now...

Thank you again Robb!

And now, a word from my wife...
“I don’t even know you, but my husband shared with me your invention. It was I who had to put that silly screw in when we left camp, and now, I get to spend more time reading my magazines.

P.S. I put something in the mail for you today, as a show of my appreciation. Thanks so much!”

I concur. Thanks Robb.

Robb, mine is at the P.O. as were still dry camping in the outback till weekend. But Wyatt, your wife typed out some words that brought tears to my eyes, I know my wife would be typing those same exact words, if ours would be installed now. So Thank you wife Wyatt for these nice words of appreciation to Robb.

Thanks again

At least now we know our true zip Code. 🤓

SCCAFIRE · 05-05-2020, 07:43 PM

Many thanks to Robb.

I also received my new latch today in the mail. I installed the latch already. 1000 times better than the screw b/s Winnebago decided to use. I must say I hae gotten lucky. I have forgot to put the screw in and not had the doors open. Now I don't have to worry about that.

Just take a photo on your phone, then go to your photos, and take a screenshot, then upload it under the ADVANCED TAB.

Oh Wiatt, your giving me way too much credit. Some morning I have to look at my drivers license to remember my true idenity!

K9AEG · 05-06-2020, 09:28 AM

Ok, let me try my photo techniques.
1st pic is taken with volume buttons on bottom of phone.
2nd shot using swipe method.

Guess both methods work.

YGoHom · 05-07-2020, 11:00 AM

I’m glad the latches are working for you! I can’t imagine not having one.

Hey Guys -
This has been amazing to read through how far some of your builds have come along! WOW! I have just been completely submerged in the new work that brought me to sunny California. I have visited my beloved Willenium Falcon a handful of times to exercise the engine, slideouts, water pump, etc..but we havent been on a trip since landing from our cross-country jaunt followed by about a month's worth of living in the rig in Van Nuys while we closed on our house in Camarillo. Fortunately the neighborhood we bought in has an RV parking area, so it's just a short walk! Cant wait for some down time to get back out on the road - and yes - restart the mods! The pages of info here are just so impressive! I'm a fan of the model, and this community that has sprung up around it! I was glad to see it come back for 2020. I hope you all are safe and well!
