RE: Pump Problem
Ok, guys thanks for the fast responses.
I took the faulty fuse out and replaced it with the TV fuse.
Now we can use the pump but not the TV till we buy some extra fuses to carry with us.
Don't matter because we never watch TV.
Anyhow, lesson learned... :-) Thanks again.

Pump Problem
This morning I was pumping the sewer out. Wife turned on a tab inside and the water pump quit and so did the sewer pump. Both at the same time when she opened a tab.
Checked all the breakers, nothing wrong there. Turned them on and off to make sure. Turned the breakers on and off at the campsite power plugin, nothing wrong those either. Got all electrical outlets inside working, lights, etc.
Slideout does work, levelers do work.Fans do work, etc
Only thing without power: Display panel, water pump and sewer pump.
Everything else works.
What could be wrong? I can only find the breakers in the bedroom under the bed.

RE: Brake Adjustments Ford E450 Motorhomes
Does a regular Ford dealer take these motorhomes in for service or do you guys go to a special RV facility?

RE: removing Eclipse radio from E-450 dash
I have the same motorhome and I stopped at the factory in Manitoba.
I could not shut that radio off!
I would turn it off, leave the RV and come back 10 minutes later and it was back on again.
It drained one of my batteries while parked in winter.
Nothing could be done to keep that thing turned off.
At the factory they put a switch on the dash to turn off all power.
They were well aware of this problem and the dealer should have put a switch in before selling the unit.
I never use that thing because it's useless for backing up.

RE: No room at the Inn
It's the same elsewhere in Canada.
Many oil workers are using RVs in Alberta and Saskatchewan.
I have come through some towns where all campsites and other areas
were full of workers.

RE: Sue St Marie ON
We will be crossing the boarder from Ontario to Michigan at that point at the end of July.
Before crossing we would like explore the Ontario side,so please let us know what to see (is Agawa Canyon Train tour in July worth it?,how much is the ticket,is it a round trip?) and where to Camp?
Thanks
We parked at the train station during the day.
For the night we stayed at the mall parking lot right next door.
That's pretty well at the water front. (Walking trail etc.)

RE: camping along Cabot Trail in Nova Scotia
We did the trail in a 40' motorhome towing a jeep, with no problems. Took us 5 days and we stayed in some nice campgrounds. I might note here, that there would not be campgrounds on the trail if people didn't take their RV's around the trail.
Yes, it is possible to drive it in one day and I believe many do it. However, that is just for the privilege to say "I drove the Cabot Trail". If you really want to see and experience what it has to offer it takes some time.
Can you drive 800 miles in a day? Sure you can, but do you really want to?
Take your rig and take a few days. You will enjoy it.
I did not know the Cabot trail is 800 miles long......lol.
It's only 298 km!
Make sure not to miss Meatcove.

But check first, I heard rumour about a fire there.

RE: Generator use question.
Ok, thanks guys.
I was just wondering.
I understand, when hooked up to 30 AMP, there is no reason to start the generator because you don't need it.
But we were out this weekend and somebody started the gen. when plugged into shore,
and there was some concern about it.

Generator use question.
Might be a stupid question, but today somebody said not to start your generator when you are hooked up to shore power. Is that true?

RE: leveling jacks
Rubber horse mats are 1/2" thick. I cut mine in 12 x 12 or 24 x 12 squares, using a utility knife and sharp blades. Took an hour. Leveling is pretty easy in campgrounds. Safety issue - huh? I don't want to haul the additional weight or pay the 3 to 4 thousand it would take to install something that takes me 5 minutes. Most C's do not come with levelers, not everyone considers them a necessity. Just my 5 cents.
John
That's what I think too!

RE: 5000 pound truck camper???
To enjoy the benefits of single rear wheel you would need to use a truck usually sold new as a "dually" with enough payload to carry the camper and convert it to single rear wheel.
Don't even think about it.
It would not handle that big Lance!!!!!!

RE: 5000 pound truck camper???
You would need a one ton dually truck for this camper.
We had a Lance double slide on a Dodge Diesel and took it across Canada, 16.000 km.
No problems. The back tires were wearing out pretty good, that's all.

RE: Between Mattawa, ON and Espanola, ON, your .....
recommendations on a good campground. Looking for reasonably priced, nice views, and privacy to a certain extent (don't want to hold my hand out my window to my neighbor to borrow sugar, LOL).
Thanks for your help in advance.

There are a few nice campgrounds in Sturgeon Falls at the lake.

RE: Any B+ Mfgr. Better Than Tripple E?
I love watching Dean the pitch man for Tripple E and what a excellent salesman he is! Honestly, he has me sold on Tripple E. But, is there a better constructed B+ motor home than the Tripple E GT series with Queen walk around bed? Certainly would appreciate your opinions! Thanks, Chuck/Bagman.
We own one and are very happy with it.
Triple E makes an above average quality motorhome.
Made for the Canadian climate as well.
We bought it brand new and put over 16.000 km on in the first season.
You can't go wrong.
They are not the cheapest, but I think they are the best and also hold their value better.

Picked up that statue at a garage sale.......just kidding.
We drove from British Columbia to the east coast.

RE: Quebec City
Last summer we stayed in the parking lot at the ferry terminel.They have four or five spots there for RVs and allow you to park over-nite of course there is no hook ups. Rates are resonable.
Yes, we have done that.
Another option is parking at the Walmart at Levis (right at the Highway) and take a taxi to the ferry or drive your toad down there.

RE: What to do/see around Prince Rupert?
There is a fabulous lake just north of Lac La Hache..Green Lake..about 15? 20k's at the turn off to your left. Greeny Lake..
https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=202099339944278416571.0004ca278e8e555e274a1&msa=0&ll=51.854588,-121.353414&spn=0.007435,0.021136
If you go to 100 Mile House..turning right at the BC Info building will take you out to lake's edge by the airport. Nice and quiet.
Gary Haupt
Very familiar with Greeny Lake. Also Helena Lake, west of Lac La Hache.
We live right on Lac La Hache north of the village.
