Leaky A/C compartment, RoadTrek 210, 190
My 190 is a little different, but the concept may be the same. I don't think the a/c pan is parallel to the ground, I think it tilts forward a bit. I had to cut the front pan lip down quite a bit...

RT 190 Seat covers
Like many of you, I suspect, my vinyl seats are peeling. I've looked at a lot of Forums and nobody really has a solution to this. The seats on the RT are not Chevy seats, they are RT seats and it's...

Thanks all. To clarify, I replaced the CoolCat with a Fridgidaire window unit with it's own remote control. Therefore, I don't need a heat/cool thermostat, just heat only. I'd like to keep it by...

Powering the thermostat when replacing a/c
I replaced my a/c on my 2012 RT much as you did and it was very successful. However, I have discovered that the thermostat was powered through a transformer on the old CoolCat. Now that I have (and...

This is a nasty subject (pun intended). In my opinion, RoadTrek should have always employed a gravity system. The 190 I have is not that low to the ground. On a trip to Colorado, the impeller...
