  1. I could not find one at Walmart, think I got one at Auto Zone, most auto parts stores should have one. Just make sure it's for Toyota and the right year. The come with instruction, simple to do.
  2. If the coach is an 89 the chassis is probably an 88, at least mine is. You can down load the Toyota truck manual on line. If you email Winnebago they can email a copy of wiring and plumbing diagrams.
  3. I did pull the unit, most have four screws on the front usually behind some plastic covers, and a couple of screws on the bottom that you access through the outer vent door. Mine however being a Winni had plates attached to fridge and then bolted to the sides of the opening. At the current time I am driving the fridge around in the back of my truck trying dislodge any blockage. Not sure if it will work but thought it worth a try before buying a rebuilt cooling unit.
  4. Norcold 875EG2, burner gets hot on both propane and AC but fridge not working as it should. Even by passed control unit and direct wired to AC and still not getting cold. Any thoughts before I try and pull unit and try the remix by laying on side as manual says which may fix problem.
  5. How do I remove the black water tank on my 89 Itasca Spirit? The wood on the side of camper that is under the main floor it rotted and needs to be replaced. I may be able to replace it without dropping the the tank but just in case I can't, how do I remove it. I see the straps but wonder what else I need to undo?
  6. Not sure what you have, I have Hehr 5600 series windows on mine. Replacements can be found at www.pellandent.com/
  7. You might try Winnebago parts catalog, a lot of the toy parts are interchangeable.
  8. I don't think the water weld will work. You might want to try Seal All, I use it on kind of material. I put it on pin holes on my cheap nylon chest waders and it works.
  9. My Itasca Spirit came with roller window shades, but I to have been researching window film; I like to see out while I am camping. I have decided on the residential film from Gila. They have one that blocks of 70% of suns heat but you can still see through easly. I am waiting for Lowes to restock. The only problem I see is putting on the siding style windows, it won't be a problem with the stationary windows. I also found some exterior window film on the Internet not quite as good but my have to use for the sliders.
  10. Any place that sells name batteries should be able to get you the battery for truck, you just have to make sure it fits and does not hit the hood. The coach battery needs to be a deep cycle the bigger the better, I would run at least a 115 amp hour size 27, I believe they also make size 31.
  11. Saw somewhere on this site about using a timer on the house current, only about an hour or a day if left plugged in all the time. Kinda makes since as this it what I learned to do with my marine batteries for the boat, (these are on cheap float chargers but these also can boil battery). They sure last a lot longer.
  12. Here is what I came up with, sure someone else as done it also, but just wanted to share. Blue jean, fiberglass screen, magnants, an good ole Mighity Mendit. Sorry my edit software is haywire.
  13. I am lost on this one, my tire guy here in Doo Dah or the land of OZ, also known as Wichita, KS says Hancook, Hankook or how ever the name is spelled, do not make that size. But I really don't think he knows how to check on it either.
  14. Don't think it would work in my case, I have one wall that is always gonna have water on it when showering, the others are covered by the shower curtain. I have talked to wallpaper store and boy is it expencive for there stuff, and not even sure it it would work. Went to a little off the wall store we have here and found some solid vinyl wallpaper, not the colth back for only a buck 99; will do some project testing on other stuff first just to see what it takes. If I get this to work I think I will just pull toliet so I don't have to stand on my head. To dang old and dang tall. Can't even stand up in this thing, not even in the bath with the skylight that added two inches.
