I took mine out completely to bench test it. No load output voltage was 13.4 if I'm not mistaken. When I was reinstalling it is when I noticed how the outlet was wired on the back of the power panel. Good luck.

I had the same problem. My inverter was plugged into the outlet on the back of the power panel that was wired to the bottom breaker which was labeled as "Not Used". Once I turned that breaker ON the Inverter started inverting.

I have a 2012 Grandby (2nd Owner) and had a similar problem. When hooked to shore power the convertor would not output 12V or charge batteries. I removed the convertor to bench test and it had the correct output voltage (13.4). I reinstalled the convertor and decided to check the outlet which...

US Cargo Control is pretty good to deal with as well. https://www.uscargocontrol.com/collections/Airline-Straps-Hardware

We had a fantastic time. Great to see you Jim, good luck with the new Subaru.

Got our tickets, looking forward to the trip down.

I'm glad I found this thread. I had the exact same problem on my new to me 2012 Granby. I used the Git Rot, followed Rot Doctor Sculpwood Epoxy filler. I checked with FWC and they're currently using "PPG fast drying skid guard black" so I decided to go with the roll-on bedliner (Duplicolor...

Interested, I'll shoot you a text in a wee bit. EDIT: Picking this puppy up tomorrow, SCORE!

For the 2nd Gen Tacoma here is the link to a front brake upgrade that works well. I imagine someone has done the same for the 3rd Gens. https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/2nd-gen-diy-big-brake-kit-oem-parts-part-s-provided-installed.443656/

I hooked it up the same way OP Desert Dave did, no problems: "I connected the white wire to 'W' and the blue wire to 'R' on the new stat. I left the sensitivity at the default of one degree ( it can be raised up to 3 degrees if desired) and left the default setting at 'electric' instead of...

I bought two of these thermostats in the OPs post, one for my shop running a pellet stove and one for the camper to replace the OEM analog White/Rodgers. I'm tickled to death with the performance in both applications. I set the one in the shop at 40 for freeze protection and when I come out in...

Thanks for this post, getting ready to install this same unit in our '12 Granby.

Has anyone had to replace the o-ring in the QD fitting? Mine is looking a bit rough. I'm assuming I can pull it out and hit NAPA or any farm store with an o-ring assortment.

What are you strapping the boards to? I don't see anything good coming from this by any stretch (roof, paddleboards, bungees, ropes, straps, etc).

I have a 2012 Granby on a 2017 F350 (tow package) and it hauls it no problem. You'll be good to go.

Checkout Sunrise Hwy S1 off 79. There are several dispersed sites off of it.

Quick update. The new frame arrived from FWC and included new glass which I didn't expect for $20 at all. They've updated the design on the frame so the window actually sits in a frame as opposed to resting on the ten plastic pins in the old model. With the new design the glass is 3/4" wider...

I was considering that but really wanted to avoid removing the door, I'm seriously considering it for the reinstall when the new one shows up. Lots of head scratching going on with not a lot of hair to scratch...

Thanks, ended up having to remove the mounting flange in order to clear the door frame. It was an interesting fight between that and the 5 lbs of RTV I had to cut through but in the end it lost the war. I'm praying I don't have to remove the top and lower the Nova Kool in... On another note...

I recently purchased a 2012 Granby and I'm getting ready to swap out the original 3 way (Dometic RM2354) with a Nova Kool R3000. Any tips on getting the original out, it doesn't look like it will clear the door frame. I'm beginning to think FWC builds the camper around the refrigerator... I...

Holy thread revival... I just picked up a gently used 2012 Grandby from the original owner and noticed that the rear window was "loose" in the frame while cleaning it. Looking closer it was obvious that the outer frame had considerable UV damage with several good size cracks. I was going to...

Sent you an email.

Thanks guys, the more advice the better. I remember Lighthawk's posts from when I had my Eagle. Good to see you're still enjoying your truck/camper setup. It's brand loyalty and satisfaction that has us coming back to a FWC setup.

Thanks for all the input guys. I think we're just going to bite the bullet and go 3/4 ton out of the gates. I'm knee deep in mods to my Tacoma and really don't need/want to start another build at this point. Will update when we find the truck/Hawk combo. Again, thanks for the wisdom and...

The Eagle I had was pretty much loaded so the Tacoma was maxed out for sure making it a handful. I did a lot of upgrades to the Tacoma but it's still a 1/2 midsize truck. That experience is what's making me lean more towards the 3/4 ton ride out of the gates, but it's good to hear actual...
