This is a forum that you can post things that cause or can cause permanent damage to your RV, i.e. isopropol alcohol will take off the finish in your sink.
Describe the problem in a straight forward manner and PLEASE no replies to the posts!

Location: We're fulltimers and have never been physically to our address in Madison SD! Will get there probably when we renew our DL. Try to stay not too warm or cold. Usually go to Mexico in the winter which we love. Will gladly answer ?s about full timing or Mexico.
Cardinal Owners: Have a 2008 35 SB. Had ordered exactly what we wanted and then had to cancel since they changed floorplans. Wanted the W/D in the bathroom, not bedroom. Have some problems, but we love the layout. Have made many modifications including larger windows in small S/O, furniture, cabinet work, 46" TV.

If your shore power connection is not grounded and you step from your rig onto a damp or wet surface, you may get shocked or even killed. Keep a line meter plugged into one of your house curcuits so you can monitor it. Things can change. Electricians can make mistakes and a lot of CG wiring is done by non-qualified folks. If possible, check the plug before you unhook your rigs. Reverse polarity can also fry some electrical components.
