RE: Creak when reversing the fifth wheel

Hi I think the noise is at the axle, the 5 wheel is a 2020 40ft vanleigh twin axle just hit lots of rain yesterday. I was underneath a week ago and all is secure, leaf springs look good
For the trailer - Are the grease points on the axle accessible without removing the wheels
For the fifth wheel hitch, I have the factory mounts in the f350. Can I get red tack from Walmart and can I use in both axle and fifth wheel hitch in the truck.

Creak when reversing the fifth wheel

Hi all I have a B&W fifth wheel hitch and dexter axle on the fifth wheel, when reversing I’m now getting a creak followed by a bang when stopping,
Any ideas is it the B&W which need grease or the axle in the fifth wheel
Sounds like an old bed
Can you suggest or confirm If I can use litium grease from Walmart in the jaws of the fifth wheel and anywhere on the fifth wheel thanks

RE: Vanleigh Power issue bedroom nose sockets

Resolved - finally the feed or spur for the forward section with washer and nose bedroom is fed from the ceiling tv socket main bedroom.
Due to movement and the cables weren’t pinched Down enough creating a loose short, will hunt around for a new socket temporarily I repunched it down
Happy it’s fixed thanks for all your input

RE: Vanleigh Power issue bedroom nose sockets

Morn the bath has a gfi should I switch this one out just in case, it has green light. Only 50 percent of sockets are not working currently in the bedroom area, highlighted in red in my initial post

RE: Vanleigh Power issue bedroom nose sockets

My next thought was just to replace the gfi in the bathroom and check the white and black to the bottom of the fuse panel rail are tight. Vanleigh asked me to check the wet area socket which I did and all was seated correctly, my next thought was to take the cover off the junction box below in the belly picture below

RE: Help water overflow nautilus 2.5

For sure always appreciate everyone’s time on this and it was a call from nautilus that gave me this and the 10$ fix is the camco valve which will fit inline instead of replacing the old water pump. Lots on you tube which I’ve been watching also

RE: Help water overflow nautilus 2.5

Backflow preventor in the pump failed due to hard water I’ll be purchasing
camco 23303 inline preventor and will run the pump for 20min on dry camp see if it unsticks the Backflow preventor

RE: Help water overflow nautilus 2.5

I haven’t had a hose in the winterize connection only the black tank flush, the water is somehow coming out of the white winterize connection when I select city water
