MARION, NC: A Productive Day

Today we delivered Little House to the Service Center at 8 A.M. so we had an early start to our day. Several items were on today's schedule:

• Finishing the installation of the new/old A/C which included reinstalling the condensate drain pump inside the roof-top unit, and fastening the remaining bolts inside securing the drop-down decorative ceiling plate which conceals the A/C cooling vents and access to the ducts.
• Removing the bedroom window  treatment and restringing the day/night shade.
• Realignment of the patio awning arms and canvas, and securing some parts that had worked loose
• Replacing a turn signal control inside the steering column.  This item was originally scheduled for tomorrow but parts arrived yesterday so they completed their work list today!

While Little House was being patched up we got an interesting piece of information from Dale, the assistant service manager.  Dale said another dealer's repair shop had heard about our problem and contacted the service department here to see if a solution had been found - because they were having the same problem.  This confirmed a suspicion that Dale had previously voiced - that as these units aged they would  be seeing more of  this  problem.

Anyway - Our repair list is finally complete!!  The only thing left is to pay the bill, but most of that is either covered as repairs covered by the dealer as part of the sale, or covered by our extended warranty.

We'll stay here until Sunday when we'll start our journey toward Wisconsin. Since our route takes us through Louisville, we'll spend a few days there visiting with family and friends.  It will be wonderful to get these big wheels turning again.
