Part Number for Dometic heater element

Would someone post the part number for the older and lower amperage AC heater? I will be scheduling my recall visit and I understand the later higher amperage heater may contribute to the coil failure.
I have a Dometic RM 2652.
Thank in advance

RE: Changed brake fluid

Whats a good easy way to change out brake fluid?
I am a ASE Certified Mechanic, and a ME.
It amazes me how people think they need to spend more the 1.00 for supplies to fully change their brake fluid.. (Not poking anyone in the eye, if you do it for a living then speed is a factor)
Let Newton do all the work.
All you need is a 6 inch piece of clear hose to fit over the bleeder nipple. This is to allow fluid to drain and not drip down the tire.
Top off the reservoir, and crack the the bleeders in order and let gravity drain the system.
Keep the reservoir topped off.
Left front
Right Front
Load leveling valve (If equipped)
Then the rears (Either one or both at one time)
Let each one drip until the fluid is clear. No pumping of pedals, and vacuum buckets that need cleaning when done.

RE: Weird Prodigy Problem

Was it the dealer you purchased it at? I do not feel like driving to New Bransfels if I can avoid it ..
Bought mine on line and traded it for a new one at a dealer I had never done business with in Phoenix.
You must have nicer dealers than the one I dwelt with. They basically told me to go away.
If you ever get the chance to pass up "RV Outlet Mall" in Georgetown Texas .. do so ..
Tekonsha tech support mentioned to return it to the dealer also.. I called them back today and they said the only other option if the dealer does not want to play nice in the sandbox is to ship it back to the factory. Will be doing so; but will have to install my old style controller from my farm truck in it's place.
Thanks for the advice..
(I hate RV Outlet Mall, I swear I got a bad feeling as I was buying my 1st RV from them and it's been a constant string of amazing disappointments; misadvertisements and outright lies ..)

RE: Weird Prodigy Problem

They took the link down after it was posted on here. I wonder why...(EG).
Would you have the document; or have a copy of it handy?
Thanx

RE: Weird Prodigy Problem

The Prodigy has a lifetime warranty. When mine quit I went to a dealer that carries them and exchanged it. A 2 minute transaction.

Lostmarbles;
Can you locate or link to this PDF? I have similar symptoms.
OR; anyone with advice on how to contact Tekonsha for repair?
Thanx

RE: 2003 GMC Duramax. Switching to 285/75. What to expect?

great replies; and probably what I expected. Why do I want to upgrade? I came across a fellow 4-Wheeler who purchased a new set of 5 285/75/16 Nitto Terra Grapplers and wanted to go to a 35 inch tire. I picked them up with literally no miles for 500. (A good deal wherever you are).
I will put them on my Rock Crawler.. It spends most of the time in 4wheel low and has 4:56 ratios.
BTW; my Duramax has the chrome steel wheels. I would assume the load rating is higher than the alloys.
when I wear out the set on my Duramax I might upgrade to 265's. I would like to see 69 or so at 1900 RPM as my tuner more than make plenty of torque in that RPM range. At the rate I am going it will be a while :) ( a 2003 with only 40K miles)
Thanx for the opinions and the link to the tire calculator.

RE: Opinions on 2003 Duramax/Allison setup

I just bought a 03 2500 chevy crew cab 4wd. It has 112000 on it and was just wondering if I have bought a good truck or not. I know it's a little to late to ask but I'd like to hear your opinions. Thanks
I have 40K on mine, and it's been an amazing truck. 20 MPG and tows my 5th wheel AND my 4-WD with no power issues.
Make sure you are picky on the fuel you use. The early Bosch injectors cannot take water \ dirt and may leak. GM has a program for that.
use the new style fuel filter and change it when you are supposed to. I change mine when I change oil; at 10K intervals.
have fun

2003 GMC Duramax. Switching to 285/75. What to expect?

Howdy.
Contemplating swapping up to a 285 75 16. (A 32.8 inch tall tire) I tow a moderately heavy Fiver in the Texas Hill country and down to the coast.
Anyone with the 3.73 \ Duramax \ Allison combo running a 285 tall tire care to pass on their observations?
Speedo error; how much?
Loss or low end torque; how noticeable?
What speed is 2000 RPM in overdrive?
Thanx in advance!!
