GameHauler Report post Posted August 5, 2008 Bryce Do you have a slide out on the right side? Most of the lights in an RV are 12 volt but not always. I'll post more after I get to work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CouesWhitetail Report post Posted August 5, 2008 I thought I would bring this thread back up for our new members. Amanda, Can you think of a better name for this thread so it can be found in a search? RV and 101 do not have 4 letters I pinned the topic so it will be easier to find. We could call it recreational vehicles or something like that, but who would type that into a search engine? So not sure what would be better. Amanda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BRYCE CANYON Report post Posted August 6, 2008 It is a 30 footer with no slide. The converter is made by Magnetek B-W Manufacturing. You are right, the lights are not 110. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GameHauler Report post Posted August 6, 2008 It is a 30 footer with no slide. The converter is made by Magnetek B-W Manufacturing. You are right, the lights are not 110. 6300 series? there is an upgrade converter kit to 7300. The black (hot) 110 wire going to the breaker may have a little pigtail coming off of it is there another wire, wire nutted to it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The black (hot) 110 wire going to the breaker may have a little pigtail coming off of it is there another wire, wire nutted to it? The model number is TU-740-2. It has a red (hot) and white wire running from it as well as a bare copper ground. The red wire runs into the wall in the direction of the breaker and a pigtail off of that runs to the battery and then to a wire bundle that runs into the wall towards the front of the trailer?

GameHauler Report post Posted August 6, 2008 Sounds to me like the converter is not built into the power distribution center but a separate unit/ free standing. Try unplugging the converter and see if the circuit breaker still trips. If not we know that is what is tripping it We can replace the unit with a new style 7400 series 45 amp model. Retail is 217.00 but I offer a 15% discount to members so the cost would be 184.45 + tax Let me know if that fixes the breaker problem by the way the new converter measures 4-1/8HX7WX12-3/8L Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redman Report post Posted October 12, 2008 Dear GameHauler, Need some help/advice. This weekend I hit a tree branch with my popup which resulted in a hold about the size of a fist in the front panel, no other damage. What is the best way to repair? Thanks Redman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TEAM JESUS Report post Posted November 9, 2009 Hope this is still active. I have a 2006 28' Sandpiper toyhauler. My rear beds have a gear mechanism that was made out of nylon and 2 of the teeth have sheared off. I have gotten a quote to replace the gears. $580. from the dealer and a quote to have the gear made from a machinist $450. I do not know the maker of the beds. Got any ideas, I thought about having the gear made in aluminum to strengthen it, or can the nylon be made in a stronger compound? Have you seen this often and would it be benificial to make multiple and sell??? Lots of questions Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GameHauler Report post Posted November 9, 2009 I know it does happen but I have not found a source for parts yet. I think the manufacturer is contracted to only sell to the dealers. Sorry I could not help more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TEAM JESUS Report post Posted November 11, 2009 So what do you think about the gear being made out of aluminum? Or is there different grades of nylon to get a stronger gear made? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
