I've looked and I don't think it is adequately supported in that area. It appears that the drain lines run along that side of the tub and they left the supporting floor short to allow for the pipes....

How do you fix a cracked bathtub?

After showering this morning we noticed water on the floor coming from under the tub. I found an inch and a half crack in the tub. Any ideas on how to repair that. RTV a plastic plate over it?...

Fords aren't the only trucks like that. On my Tahoe I had to connect a wire near the fuse box to make my 12V terminal live also. I don't understand why they just don't make the connection at the...

What do you do with your flat screen TVs in winter?

Ok, what about storing the TVs during the hot Florida summers? That's where ours will be stored long term.

What kind of plumbing connection is this?

I was looking under the sink of my 25RKS this morning and noticed some odd plumbing connections. They look like some sort of quick disconnect. I didn't try to disconnect them because the city water...

I tow our 25RKS with an '09 Tahoe with no problem. Just pulled it about 900 miles at 9 mpg. Mine has the 6.2L with 3:42 rear end. I don't think you would have a problem with either one.

The connection was not made with wire nuts. They were scotch-lock connectors similar to this picture. You just clamp them on the wire and hope the metallic spade slices through the insulation....

I think after reading your story I'll check all of the connections in my load center before I put the cover back in place. Thanks.

Based on original paperwork that came with the trailer the dual heat source water heater was original. I suppose it could have been replaced but I found no signs of it being changed.

I would be interested in knowing if other '07 Jaycos have the water heater wired like this. I do plan to send a note to Jayco with this information.

Very disappointed in Jayco's wiring methods

The high volt connections were just scotch-lock connectors with tape around them. The house type wire was secured to a drain pipe with a zip tie. In the lower part of this photo you can see the...

Very disappointed in Jayco's wiring methods

The water heater in my 25RKS has not worked on electric since I bought it earlier this year. So today I decided to do some troubleshooting and see if I could get it to work.

I found no 120v at the...

Is this normal operation for a water heater?

On our 25RKS when I switch on the gas water heater it will fire and run for a few seconds and then stop. A few seconds later it will re-fire. This repeats several times before it stays on. Is that...

The lights I have don't have their own power adapter. They just use the trailer's 12v system. I like the idea of somehow connecting to the porch light. I'll have to check that out.

Thanks,...

Jayco gas grill

I have the RVQ grill which attaches to the side of our 25rks and the side of the trailer doesn't get warm. I don't think it would be a problem.
