Hi, welcome to the portal. I've a few ideas but first, here's a link to the Carefree style power lift owners and install manual. Not sure if this is the model you have but it may help in figuring things out...

Hi everyone, been a while since posting. I saw this post and since the pup is up and we're camping i figured i'd snap a shot of my setup. In the couple of different pups we've had with a flip over sink, its always been the length of drainhose that causes the issue, here's how i solved it...

Try here... http://www.rvdealership.com/rvdstore/index.aspx?CustomerNumber=885555 Select awnings from the drop down list, then choose from the list on the left in blue i.e carefree...then campout It gives you a list of parts. At the top click on "show diagram" and you can click on the # you...

I'm sure you've already seen the carefree breakdown from their site...http://www.carefreeofcolorado.com/docs/tech/Campout%20metric%20IPL.pdf ...and you've probably already got the part number, but in case you don't maybe try going in with the number and seeing what your local dealer can pull...

Chose a crew cab but its really an extended...

We have the smaller one with our power roof vent. We run the fan all the time and haven't had a problem. It's been two seasons with it now.

Nice looking rig, we'll be going that way in a few years too.

Just a guess but i'd assume, like you mentioned, it's some kind of seam sealer. I'd probably take a soft bristle scrub brush and scrub off whatever is left behind and re-seal. Ad

I beg to differ Ghacker... Silicone spray lube on the lifter posts is perfectly fine, i'd strongly recomend it. It's probably one of the best lubes for metal on metal contact where you don't want a wet lube to attract dirt. Ghacker is right about part of it though, use a piece of cardboard...

It's a pressure release, your right, but one end of the hose (or tubing if you like) is connected to a spigot at the top of the water tank, the other to the small screened hole on the outside of the pup, pictured above. Think of it this way, some pups have a the tank inside under the dinette...

Hi Lisa, it's pretty easy to check. Plug the pup into shore power, and grab your multimeter. Turn the dial of the meter so that it points to the lowest DC voltage setting on the meter above 12 (most of the ones i've seen have a 20 volt DC setting). Touch the electrodes to the battery posts...

I think "theman" is right on here. What he and Phipps above are alluding to is if your plugged into shore power then all the power should be coming from the converter, not the battery. When your plugged in (shore), the converter will charge the battery. It will also convert the 120 volt down...

Hi Lizk, and Sandy, welcome to the portal. Are you asking about the drain line for a fresh water tank, or the drain for the sink? From what i've seen with vikings, and it depends on the age of the pup and model, the fresh water tank, if mounted underneath the pup, has a spigot attached to it...

Just so there's no confusion if in the future someone is looking through this post, the pics i posted above are two single tank mounts, side by side.

The dealer where i bought is has gone the way of the dodo...there's two other dealers on my way home, i'll have a look. In the meantime, i came across this thread from fibreglassrv.com. Someone built there own. http://www.fiberglassrv.com/forums/f55/propane-tank-hold-down-28394.html
