Jerry, your modifications are great!! Isn't it fun fiddling with the RV? New or used, it is just fun!! Two questions for the forum... has anyone figured out a good mod for the passenger dashboard? (2019 Synergy ST 24 ft) Ours is very deep with useless cupholders, little storage, etc. I see great dash ideas on Winnebago, but they don't fit ours. Any modifications? Second, has anyone ever tried to program the control panel themselves? Our AC and furnace work fine, the slider works fine, but the AC will not cool because it does not communicate with the control panel. I am having a heck of a time getting an appointment with a dealer to get this done and it cannot be that difficult. Thanks.

My little projects escalated quickly. I am remodeling the entire 2014 windsport 34j. Pics and details to come.

Quick question though.. Where is the low point drain on this model? The manual says that they are located in the outdoor shower below the floor. My outdoor shower is above the floor and definitely doesn't have a low point drain. Right now I have a full tank of water and no idea how to drain it except to pump it out. Thanks for the help!

Where is your water tank. The valve to drain tank should be close.

Its in the back - under the bed. I can see a water line going to the pump and then forward and into the wall. There is also the fill line and vent. Thats it

From what I've read the valves are under the bed by the tank. Your set up is different than mine. My valves are in the front cargo bay

You may need to give thor a call

Hey Jerry, didn’t you replace your outside fridge? If so do you have any pics of how you amounted it and what fridge you went to?

My stock fridge had a front and rear mounting brackets. Got the new fridge at Walmart. Went with what would fit. It was close to stock

The back frame of the fridge fit under the bracket which keeps it from tipping up and forward. Can't remember how the front bracket hooked up but it was an easy job

Sorry I don't have more info but size is important to big door won't close

Thanks, I talked to a parts guy at a Thor dealership and he says they have this a lot with their campers with outdoor kitchens also. Said that its because if you run it with door closed there is not any air flow and they over heat

I always use mine with tge door closed. Never had a problem

trod211 · 03-30-2021, 10:37 PM

gotcha I just wonder if my batteries going bad might have affected it.

It took me a while before I found mine. There was a lot of things blocking my view. I have a Hurricane 31Z but the water is under the bed.

That just proves the Plant 750 does change things. My fresh water tank is in the right front compartment just behind the battery compartment. The drain valve is just part of the water line from the tank to the pump under the sink just above.

I replaced my coach batteries with the same size deep cycle marine lead acid from Pep Boys about a year ago. They were on sale. I added the flow right water hydration system to make it easier to keep them filled up. I failed to maintain the original ones and paid the price by having to replace them. One was bad and the other was ok. I replaced both at the same time. I believe they ran about $80.00 each on sale.
