I also agree with Fort Myers area, The Red Coconut is on the beach. 50cent trolly to tons of places to eat & drink cheap! buy a some cheap bikes when you arrive keep them for your trip, then donate them to the Salvation Army when ya leave!
Also Google maps is good for searching camp grounds, And anything else you may need

Can anyone tell me how to disconnect the pump wiring. I've taken off all the hoses and clamps but cannot locate a quick disconnect to the wiring. The PC is 4 years old and I want to do some maintenance to the system, replacing rusty worm clamps, and possibly the hanger. Bill Golden  I cut the wires, and use something like this, http://www.delcity.net/store/Push!on-Terminals/p_189081

Its the NorCold n621, Getting the "n" code, on both gas & Elec.... I run the fridge on and off on a regular basis, on both gas & elec, showed no problems before!!!
I blew compressed air into the bottom of the "chimney" where the gas line goes in, It blew out a little carbon but not much. I have no Idea what to look for...
Anyone got any Ideas where to look?

ok gotcha... you raised your 450 seat 3" cuz it was too low for ya to be confortable! I would like to lower mine about that much..... Measuring other vehicles is a good idea...
No No! I have the same problems as others! The seat is too high!,, Some day I will lower the seat ! But until then, It was easier to raise the floor! and modify the pedals....

Your a pretty tall feller and so am wondering why your built up the floor and pedals. I am only 5'6" and I built mine up so I could have the seat back farther so steering wheel wasn't in my face. Also I don't have power seats and I feel the seat is a bit high. So I built up the floor with a couple of pieces of carpet under the mat. You must have felt the floor was a bit low also to build it up 3"??
3" made the distance from the floor to the top of the seat about the same as my work van. I do long runs when I use my PC 10-15 hours, so its good to be comfortable! Measure your other vehicles seat to floor to pedals, and see what ya get? I only did my van, I am gonna check street cars and see what I can learn.

I am 5.11 with a 32"inseam size 11 mens shoe
I found the Electric seat in my 2007 2551 Ford 450 very uncomfortable,
At its lowest adjustment its 2 inches higher then my Ford 350 van with a manual cloth seat.
What I did was build a 3" high platform for the floor.
A one inch block on the break
and a 2.5 inch block on the gas
works for me.

Your profile along the side does not indicate which year and model you have so we are very limited to how we can respond. It would be great if you could edit your profile to show that information as you see I have to the left of my response. We have a Tripp-Lite inverter on our 2007 2350 so I will give it a shot. I do not believe there is any elecrical device above the heat shield you describe. On our year & model, I can get a good look above the heat shield through the right side rear wheel well. I examined the main battery cables that pass through there to get to the inverter to the left of the fridge. Open the access door to the inverter (originally screwed shut at the factory) and hit the rest button on it when the unit is misbehaving. That might do the trick for you. If not, turn the inverter power switch to each of the 3 settings and back. If nothing works, there is one more thing to try. Get a small mirror and flashlight and look up from below at the control panel. Reach up there and unplug the connector that resembles a Walkman headphone jack and observe what happens. Do not confuse that connector with the one that resembles a telephone jack. Unplugging the proper connector disables the auto-on-invert feature which places the control panel into a user-control mode. In this mode you may be happier to control when the inverter is generating 110v, and just as important, when it is not to save your battery reserve power. You could kill power to the inverter using the switch by the main entry door, but then you have also killed 12v power required to run your fridge off propane. Click on the link below to read more about it. http://www.phoenixusarv.com/community/index.php/topic,73.0.htmlThanks Ron, Ours is also a 2007, I am pretty good with this stuff, I disabled the "auto invert" cause We use our PC alot, Without A land line! We have it for over 3 years...... I sent an E-mail to PC with a little more Information about the problem, I know we can resolve this, ..I will keep you filled in! This is gonna be an interesting problem. eugene

We have a Electrical problem!
We plug in the "shore power",, The cabin powers up, THEN, at the same time, The Trippolite Inverter Starts convulsing/clicking.,, which causes the "lights to flicker " on the same circuit that the shore power is it plugged into ..... UNPLUG The shore power... Now, turn on the "auto-Invert" The "Overload" light comes on! Then,, We get a loud "BUZZ"...Dead center of the vehicle , Just above the dive shaft, below the floor, But there is a piece of sheet-metal that runs the length of the vehicle, So we can not see whats making the noise!......I think there is a solenoid or something malfunctioning in there?
HELP !

Barry:
I would advise against the air bed. We have one and it is worthless. I have two kids who use it and wish I could have your set up. Our bed popped in the first two weeks. Not to mention it is not comfortable at all. If I could afford to switch the dang thing out I would.
Just one opinion.
