Aluminum Camper Forum

It appears my PD 4000 series converter on my 2014 16DBS has died an untimely death. Any suggestions for a replacement/upgrade that would be any easy swap?

Just an FYI for anyone using an older model Andersen WD hitch. There is an upgrade kit available that includes the newer model plate and the WD anti-sway assembly. See https://andersenhitches.com/collections/weight-distribution-hitch-parts-accessories for parts. The upgrade kit is not noted on their website but I stopped in last week on my way back from a camping trip and learned it was available for $100. They also offer a 20% military/veteran discount. Not sure if a local dealer has the same offer or what shipping charges would be.

Has anybody found and/or used a good paint match for touching up the black diamond plate?

I have a 2014 16DBS. Does anyone know what/how the base platform that the sofa sits on is constructed? I know there is a thin aluminum sheet on the bottom, a piece of edge trim around it and a decorative sheet on top. Anyone know what is sandwiched in between? Since the sofa base is screwed down through the top surface I am wondering what these screws are actually biting into for holding power as it does not seem to be the aluminum tubing. Thanks in advance for any help.

My 4 large LED ceiling lights have suddenly quit working after a road trip. The ones over the bed and all other lights are working. I have power to all appliances and fans. I have checked breakers and fuses. I think I might be dealing with a short problem. Does anyone have any idea how these are wired and/or suggestions for tracing the problem?

Help needed. My entry door will not open. I unlocked the door (from the outside), pulled on the handle to open and the upper lock on the door popped out a bit but the door seems to still be locked and will not open. I am wondering if the mechanism broke completely. I am hoping someone can provide some insight before I call the locksmith. Thanks.

I recently purchased a 2014 16 Camplite DBS. For those of you who love Aluminum you could say I have crossed over from the darkside (or more accurately I guess it would be the whiteside). The Camplite is replacing my fiberglass 18' 1988 Toyota Sunrader. I am busy learning what I can about the CL. Thanks in advance to all who have shared their time and expertise.
