    Hi Dave, I am going to install a Wingard ConnecT 2.0 WiFi booster on my roof. It is wireless but I need to run the cable for 12V power. I have heard some say they run it down the refrigerator vent. Does this work? How do I retrieve the cable? Do I have to pull out the refrigerator to get to the cable??

    After loading our new camper and traveling, my truck is riding low in the back. Question is, is it unsafe to simply raise the adjustment one hole up and wait until next stop to do anything else if needed?

    I have a Freedom 458 series inverter/charger 2k watts. I recently installed a 400 watt solar system with a charge controller. Now, when I turn on the inverter, I measured 140-145 volts coming out of my 120 plugs….without any load. Drops to 130-135 volts with a load on the system. I’m concerned and afraid I might burn out an appliance with so many volts…..any ideas why and how to correct?

    AC, furnace, and blowers all worked until I unplugged the unit to travel about 2 hours. Now none of them work. What could be the problem?

    What has your experience been with the Autopark Brake as used on the 2005 era Workhorse chassis? I had the Autopark light flip on several times while highway driving indicating pump needed to run to build up pressure. Is this normal or should I be worried about a system failure?

    What should we realistically expect to pay to have someone professionally reseal our roof? What would it cost us to do it ourselves? How difficult is the job?
