Regular ![]() ![]() ![]() Location: Santa Cruz, Calif. | Got to spend about 2 hrs with the 509 this eve. If anyone has any comments about the following items, it would be enlightening. 1. Made my first trip to the roof. Fairly solid. Bath vent doesn't open all the way due to hitting the condenser shroud. Normal design error? 2. Found remenants of crank-up antenna over bedroom. Didn't see output inside. 3. Condenser shroud is a major leaf collector. Any easy cleaning? Driving it back over the Hill didn't do it. 4. Bath plumbing vent cap busted. Need to replace it. Comes out of roof at an angle. 5. No major holes or breeches of the roof. Some sealer trailed over the rear. Inside: 6. Rear A/C has outlets over right rear bed. Couldn't find front outlet. Does it share with dash air? 7. Genny cranked but wouldn't start. 8. Refer is Norcold DE828. No exterior controls. Appears to be AC/DC? No propane for boondocking? 9. None of the center dash read-outs appear to work. All dash controls are sticky or resistant, even headlights. 10. Looked under front pass seat in hopes of finding the resident rodent. Is that the converter? | ||

Expert ![]() ![]() ![]() Location: Cottage Grove, OR | Got to spend about 2 hrs with the 509 this eve. If anyone has any comments about the following items, it would be enlightening. 2. Found remenants of crank-up antenna over bedroom. Didn't see output inside. -A crank up antenna would be a PO install. Start searching inside cabinets both front and rear. Good luck! 3.

Your quest has just begun, but there is a lot of expertise and experience available from others to help you. You are off to a good start by being willing to ask questions. You may/will get confilicting reccomendations or advise, but then you get to make a choice and then proceed. Hopefully some others will either concur with my comments or suggest other courses of action. It's good either way. See you at Felton. | ||
