Folks, I need to put a little caulk (9 inches total) on the roof/cap joint. Anyone know for sure what type roof I have on my 213. As I understand, there are two 'rubber roof' types. I need to know if I must buy a whole tube of Dicor or not (I would be wasting most of the tube). Also, I have another thread with this, if you have any ideas "is the emergency start solenoid employed when letting the engine alternator charge both batteries (requires that the coach battery isolator be toggled ON/USE,) or is it the house batt isolator solenoid the one involved." |

We are sitting in our stick house living room watching a snow storm dump about a foot on our lawn. Schools are closed and the snow blowers are getting exercise. The RV is snug as a bug in a totally enclosed building. Will be visiting the RV later this week to start the generator, plug in a 1,500 watt electric heater, pause the heater for some popcorn popping, then watch TV until the hour has passed.

Burl, sorry I didn't see your post. I have the rubber roof, but I'm not sure if it's Dicor or not.

Guys, can any of you look at this thread and perhaps see if your TL does the sane thing as mine, which is in essence to leave the engine batt iso solenoid on all the time>

burlmart - I have a similar 2 solenoid enclosure as your unit, but I really have no idea which one does what. I do know I have no 12 volt in my coach if I place the coach battery in "stor" mode. That is true whether the van engine is running or not. I also cannot charge the coach battery with the engine unless I put the coach battery in the "use" mode. A couple years ago, the coach battery was almost totally discharged when I picked up the RV from storage. Plugged the RV into shore power at home, turned on the fridge on 120V. Forgot to put the coach battery in "use" mode. I was thinking shore power was charging the coach battery. Left home for a trip and after about 3 hours noticed that the fridge light was flashing. I then realized the coach battery was not connected. The coach battery was dead. Used jumper cables from the engine battery to the coach battery and placed the coach battery in "use" mode. Started the engine and all was well. About 4 more hours of driving charged up the coach battery. |
