It took 4 cycles when I had a shop fix it to break( same problem). Also took them 3 1/2 months. Took me 8 hours to fix both sides. Took 2 days to get parts from Lippert. Don't believe the shops when they say they are waiting on parts. Attachment 6865Attachment 6866Attachment 6867 |
I've seen that in a previous post. Maybe you can teach those knucklehead engineers how to design something that works.
