coleman air boat anchor or not
My coleman roof air died in the Black Hills. We communicated with a mobile tech who was very busy, and was unable to visit our RV but very helpful. He looked at that photos and was very sure that the compressor was dead because of oil stains within the cover. As I understand from research this is closed system and there is no option for repair. I drove into Rapid City and purchased a portable to survive. Called ahead and had a new unit sent to friends in ND where we will be soon. The question is easy.
Is there a way to repair the old unit, and is it worth it. Seems someone could repair the compressor and replace the freon. Is this a fools errand? Is no repair possible ?
Thanks in advance!
You folks continue to save my ashfalt

RE: 5er wiring
The wire was black - hooked it up to the only black wire I could find and it worked. Thanks for your help!

5er wiring
Making a tight turn and my cord got hung up on my hitch and pulled out of the trailer. As I understand it blue is for brakes. There is not a blue wire on the trailer, but there is one on the cord. All other wires match up.

Thanks

Solar panels and lithium batteries
We are thinking of installing 2 solar panels and replacing our deep cycle batteries with lithium batteries. Big cost but if it gets us where we don't run out of power with our current set up it might be worth it.
What we have right now is a Owen 5500 generator, inverter/charger and 4 deep cycle 6v batteries, which are 5 years old and we know they are close to needing replaced.
We are boondocking and run the generator until the panel shows full but we run out of power in the middle of the night. Both of us have to use CPAP machines so this is not a good thing. We make sure that everything else is shut off even unplugging the coffee pot and TV.
Has anyone switched to the lithium batteries? Will installing just the solar panels be enough with 4 new golf cart batteries?
Any feedback would be appreciated.

Slide trouble
2014 Newmar Baystar Gasser.
This not my coach, Just trying to help a fellow traveler. The full slide on the drivers side is not working. She went to put it out and froze at about 6 inches when she tried to pull it in in came in crooked and is now stuck about 6 in. in the back 2 in front. She tried customer service and has spent hours on hold. She also tried several mobile services but no one is availible.
Is there an manual overide so we can push it in? She's concerned about it coming out while en route.
Thanks to all!
Jim
