A common problem that causes this is a leak. 12volt water pumps will come on if they think they need to pump because of water flow. If you have a leak, the pressure drops and the pump will come on....

We have the sleep number and really like it. We don't watch much TV in bed, bedroom TVs and marriage make for very unexciting bedrooms and boring evenings.

That said, being able to adjust the...

I just checked on several other RVs and motor homes and all of them have brass pressure relief valves and brass drain fittings on their water heaters.

Check your original fitting, it is probably not aluminum. Maybe I should clarify: I did not remove the original fitting, only added to it. The original plastic plug was already going into a brass...

I know that some people just replace the day/night shades rather than re-string them or even buy the MCD shades. Couple of thoughts.

Draining water heaters

I've read a few posts about draining water heaters and the discussion about the water drain plus that isn't robust. My solution was to install two little items: for the drain plug, a brass spigot...

I think when someone says "uncontrollable" and "violently" shaking and unable to keep it in lane, no accessory is needed, something is very wrong.
