Re: Storage Compartment Door Latch Rust

I bought my replacement Southco compartment door latches back in late 2018 and I no longer have my credit card records to come up with the exact Southco P/N's for the two different latches used by Born free. However, they were the E3 series of compression compression latches. A spec sheet for those ...

Re: How do I post a "screen Shot" on the Born Free Forum?

Steve,

When you click on Choose File button, does it not transfer to a view of your desktop so you can see your saved photo and click on it to choose it. It should. At least it does on both my Apple iMac desktop computer and my Apple MacBook Air laptop.

Re: Disinfecting the hot water heater tank

I guess I have always taken the position that since the hot water tank generally contains water at a temperature of 140 degrees, that this temperature is high enough to keep the tank disinfected.

Re: Removing theft-proof covers from TPMS sensors

I have the Advantage PressurePro TPMS System installed on my 2002 26’ RSB coach for more than 10 years and never had anyone ever steal a sensor off of a wheel. I can’t replace the sensor batteries in my system. The batteries in each of my sensors last about 4 to 5 years and must be replaced with new...

Re: House battery boiling! Emergency

Sorry but a Progressive Dynamics PD4655v can’t replace a Parallax 7445. The chassis details are totally different. The attached photo below shows a 7445.
