We have a 2015 23RLSW, and in the 8 years we've had it I've had to replace that twice, pretty easy to do. It's a "Vacuum Breaker Check Valve", $20-25 on Amazon. Here's a link:...

The biggest problem I ran into is the curved back of the box. Even though I could get it in the wall, there was no way to get a USB/duplex outlet in there - not enough available depth. Those outlets...

I second the I-81 to I-84 to I-495 to I-95 route. We live in SE PA, head up through the Delaware Water Gap on US 209, then catch I-84 at Milford.

Nice idea, but mine doesn't have those window screen clips. It's a push-to-release plastic tab. So far I haven't found a match. And frankly I don't like this type - been waiting for one of the tabs...

Replace Damaged Range Vent

One of the clips on the range exhaust vent finally snapped. 2016 Jay Feather 23RLSW. Are these exhaust vents pretty universal? What little I can find seems to indicate that they are. Any...

I've used it for several small projects, both in my home and in my Jayco. Very happy with it. Actually now carrying about 6' of white Pex in my pickup, along with my tool bucket, just in case. :)

Odds are it's the vacuum check valve. I've replaced mine twice in the 6 years I've had my 2015 23RLSW. They go bad, but they're usually easy to replace - after you find it, that is. Odds are it will...
