Apparently my right turn signal "relay" (I think that's what it's called) has gone bad. A blinking signal is coming in to the relay, but the relay is not activating (clicking) like the left one does. Here is a picture of it.....there are no identifying numbers on it. Is this a standard off the shelf part, and should I be able to find it at Napa, Autozone, O'Reilly, etc? There are three of these on the back panel....one for left turn, one for brakes and one for right turn.

Thanks!

I am going to replace the felt runners in my slide windows so they actually open. They are brittle and clogged with dirt. I called Newell parts and they sell it for $3 a linear foot. I assume that price is reasonable. Can any of you tell if there is somewhere else to buy it cheaper? Also are there any special tricks to changing these?

OK so here is what happened today. A little young lady about 5-6 years old collected a number of San Dollars on the beach here at Morro Bay. She came back to the tents so proud that she had found so many Sand Dollars that were in such good condition and she proudly displayed them to her Grandparents.
I overheard and asked to see them and she was so proud when she showed them to me! I asked if she could sell me one for $.25 and she said that she would. OK here is where it gets interesting. I give her the quarter, show it and give it to Patti and she promptly drops it!! (not so worried about the $.25 but it was a great Sand Dollar).
So a little later I ask the little young lady if she would sell me another one. She does and this one is even better. A neighbor comes by, we have a beer and I set the Sand Dollar on a post next in our site. Yep, as you would guess Mike opens the beer and leans on the Sand Dollar!!! these are very fragile and the thing breaks into many pieces.

Moral of the story; if you get something fragile like a Sand Dollar take a picture of it right away or don't let anyone near it.

My windows are very difficult to open as they have 32 years of Texas dust and clay in the tracks. The felt tracks just look shot. Where do I find these so I can pull out the old ones, clean things up and then install new ones? Also any tips on doing this?

Also the gaskets on most of my bay doors are in rough shape. Where is he best place to find these so I can replace these as well. Again an tips of doing this? And adjusting the doors as well?

So my new old rig has steps that are stuck slightly extended. Before I left Texas one of the guys looked underneath and said the electric motor was shot and it's easier to just replace the whole thing. True or have any of you done these before and just replaced the motor?

My CD player quit for no reason. Tom gave me a unit he removed from his coach. As Suzy & I had lunch today we enjoyed our "new" CD player.

THANK YOU....................................

Yesterday, my digital key pad showed all numbers red and nothing worked. Called Newall, and they suggested first try a resent since to replace the keypad is a big deal. In my 2001, I removed the fuse #17 in the bedroom for about 5 minutes. Reinstalled the fuse, and WOW, the key pad now works again. You may want to keep this note for future reference, I sure have done so.
