Thanks to you jetzen for asking the tech about my problem I Lifted up the bed/mattress, pull out the folding dining room chairs, In there I found the panel with a thumb hole in it about 1" to left the panel. I was told that there may be 4 hold down screws holding the panel down, however there were none, I just lifted the panel an there was the complete slide mechanism (Big grin). Sure eought there was 2 screws that appeared to be way to long. I opened the slide and sure enough the side stopped were the 2 screws were. I slid the slide in just a bit, took out the two screws each 3inches long, 2 inches longer than they should have been, slide works great now Yahoooooooooooooo ! These two screws were holding down another flat panel under the head of the bed and attached the flat panel the back part of a cross-member which I believe keeps the slide rails from getting out of line when opening or closing, I have replaced them with a 1 inch screw which works fine ... These screws BTW 3 inches from the front of the cross member ( bottom of screw ) the heads were about a 1/2 inch from the edge of the panel. I forgot to say the steel cross member is about 7 or 8 inches wide and that flat panel takes up about half of it ... Again a member of this group helped another and that's what it's all about, helping each other (See more over at the G384FLT postings) Chuck

I have to say crawling around under the storage compartment, under the bed and other place's I still claim this is a pretty well built an solid unit, no wonder it's so heavy ....
I did leave it open all open since yesterday to see if there will be any leaks, will be gone most of the day today but will check this afternoon when we get home ...

Dealer called midday we found the problem. Several splitters and we checked them all, then we checked each wires and they all checked good. Finally found a bad TV booster, waiting on KZ to approve replacing it but we don't stock that booster. If we get the OK I'll go to a competitor across the street and see if they have one. Calls a couple hours later come get your RV it's fixed come get it in the AM. Doing the Happy dance.

She's home really needing a bath, it must have rained in the storage yard. Tomorrow afternoon or Monday. I ordered a new wax I saw in another forum, McKee’s RV All-In-One Cleaner, the pictures of the finish were amazing, looked like glass & no swirl marks. I'll see how it works and how hard to apply. If it works like advertised I'll post more.

Hummmmmmm
I wonder, still can't get TV to work off the booster, when I used the menu and did the find channels at the camp ground it found 105 channels total, but the camp grounds only had 78 cable channels. I did not have the booster on do to be hooked up to cable, but I wonder if the system still found over the air channels as well as the cable, don't know, Hummmm
But I sort of gave up on the outside antenna after I saw that the cable works ok, but I still have some fuzzy channels even with cable, we do not dry camp nor boon-dock so i'm not to worried.
Edd505 was not what was happening to you, fuzzy channels on cable to begin with ??

Last fight, plates. Been calling for weeks, leaving messages for the employee that handles them. No response so after another voice message this AM wait 6 hours and no call. This time I ask for general manager, he is in a meeting, can I take a message? Yes start with my info and then she asks can you tell me what it's about we have several managers. I explain and hang up. 10 minutes later the employee calls me. I just got off the phone with DMV. They have your papers here is their number. I call DMV, they are missing one form and we have a bad phone number for you. You can down load it off the net & we need original signatures. Do you have the plate from your trade? Yep. (plates stay with the owner not the vehicle) Over night the form & I'll register the new Durango to the old plate, and your done! Temp runs out in days. I see a road trip soon.

I had a similar problem on my 270thle. Could not scan channels either on cable or OTA. I removed the booster fro the wall and after looking it over, fond it was wired wrong. The OTA antenna was connected to the satellite connector and the bedroom tv was connected to the booster input. The connections are labeled on the booster. The White coax (at least in my unit) is the feed from the antenna. Two of the connections were incorrect. 5 minutes and everything was working.

If you have further problems check the cable ends I found several that were bad. Used this tracing about $25 Home Depot or lowes
