I tried several sources for a code for you TV. None of them even list Furrion models. I have a couple of old Kenmark TVs that I never was able to find codes for myself.
Update: Searching more sources, someone found out that the code 550 would work. Depends on which receiver and remote for that receiver you are trying to pair.
Good luck.

This may be obvious depending on why you need to know ... it should be on your title/bill of sale.

I bought one, 3 1/5 inches thick after my first trip in my 5th wheel. That was 7 years ago. It's still just as comfy as it was when I bought it.

I have a 2012 Durango. I, like you generally only carry a few gallons for the same reasons. However, I have traveled with full tanks when I did some dry camping and never had any issues. Honestly, I couldn't really "feel" much difference with full tanks. I'm sure someone that dry camps a lot may have some better feedback.

Back on topic for a note: Older (much older) 5th wheels weren't built to the same standards as newer 5th wheels, and probably benefited by the stabilizers. Most newer 5th wheels don't need them.

2X on the simple installation. Wire colors match. Once you start using its, you'll be asking yourself why I didn't do this sooner.

I believe they are made in several different colors. I've seen black ones also.

X4. The Sterilite(sp) brand has many that make stacking different sizes simple and easy to do.

X2 on not leaving the grey tank open. When hooked up I just drain mine every other day or so. I always make sure my tank is full enough to get a good flush of the black tank.

Yes, it's not really a hose, just a big threaded cap. FYI, when I ordered my camper I had them send me an extra access cap. I then drilled a hole just the size of a hose and slipped the hose through. I then don't have to leave the big open space open to mice, etc.

marlee and chuck
Thanks for that info! I checked mine and sure enough it's the same as marlee's. I called the number that chuck posted and got right through. As chuck noted, they took my email, name, address and phone number.
They informed me that what to do with the old one would be in instructions with the new one.
Gotta love it when we can get this info on this forum!

I do what chuck does. Start it up with both, then usually just use shore power. If we know we are going to take back to back showers, then I will turn the propane back on just to make sure the second user doesn't run out of hot water. Never have.

I have the same issue with my Durango, from the day I bought it right up until now. I don't even try the "click" start anymore. I had it looked at once by the dealer and, of course, it worked just fine for them. I just use one of those "clicker lighter" now.

I've been over La Veta several times. With a 2004 GMC Duramax pulling a 35ft 5th wheel. I had no issues at all. Once in the winter (which I wouldn't do again ... I did make it although). There are lots worse passes in Colorado. I would say it's one of the easier ones.
You'll enjoy the Great Sand Dunes. Most interesting place to visit.

Mine isn't a Durango Gold. However, my problem may be resolved, at least a workable fix works. My remote jack system is a Rieco Titan unit. I went to their website and they had some really good trouble shooting ideas.
This is what I found in their trouble shooting guide: INTERMITTENT OPERATION - When running the jacks RF (wireless), if the jacks run on and off repeatedly, the problem is due to the brushes in one or more jacks sparking, and interfering with the RF signal. The solution to the problem is to temporarily run the jacks with a wire until the motor brushes curve to match the commutator, and the sparking stops. The jacks will run smoothly when run wired. RF operation can resume after the sparking stops. If caused by 1 or 2 motors, call us for replacement option.
Sorry for the whole paragraph, but thought it could help someone else down the road. Not knowing exactly what that meant I ran the jacks all the way up and all the way down with the hardwired remote. They worked perfectly. I then plugged in the wireless remote and the front jacks work perfectly. The rear ones still "stutter" once in a while. I emailed them to explain how do I know the brushes match the commutator. So, I'll report back once I know what is going on.
At least I can cope with how it's working for now (camping season over for me until spring ... get's cold in Colorado).

I also have the TST 507 system and have had them on my Durango since 2012. Other than replacing the batteries twice I never had any problems with them. The peace of mind is worth it's weight in gold.

I have electric jacks. I did ask him where I should find the breakers and he said they are camper mfg dependent. I got a chance to go to my local dealer and of course he tells me to bring it in and they'll fix it. I "think" I found the control box for the breakers and when I get a chance the next couple of days, I'll give that a whirl. The Lippert guy didn't mention the silicon lubricant but both he and the local guy (and me) feel it's a electrical issue so that topic didn't come up. BTW. that is what I do use for lubrication.

Ok, Lippert got back to me pretty quick. The tech that I'm communicating with told me to check the jack breakers. That made sense to me. So I went out and looked at my control panel and none are listed as breakers for the jacks. In fact there are only 3 fuses on the DC panel that are listed at 20 or 30 amp, the rest are 15 amp, no breakers. The 3 that are higher were for slides. My manual states the jacks should be used with shore power as they consume a lot of power. All the breakers on the electrical panel are for AC.
So, does anyone have any idea where I might find the breakers for the jacks?
