The Ultimate RV Maintenance Guide: Free Checklist and Tips You Need

[@stevesmith-ny8jb]

If I could give you a 1000 thumbs up, I would. Finally, someone that doesn't make a 30 minute video with only 60 seconds of usable information. So many people make videos and just randomly talk. It has nothing to do with the subject. Thank you, fantastic information delivered perfectly. Thank you

[@MobileRVTechServices]

Thanks Steve, those videos that don’t get to the point drive us crazy too. We try hard to make sure we aren’t wasting someone’s time when they click on one of our videos. -Steve

[@loraandreahinds4330]

Wow, thank you so much for that amazing instructional video this happens to be one of my favorite tutorials..... So many useful facts that is rarely talked about. This is so important to know whether you are a part-time or full-time RVer! Excellent job!

This is a superior video in the Joe Friday "just the facts, Ma'am" style. No shaky camerawork. Succinct, dubbed well and comprehensive. Should be required viewing for all aspiring videographers.

[@MobileRVTechServices]

Thanks for the kind words. We try to make all our videos, just the facts, filled with information for the viewer to learn from.

Super helpful video. I learned a few more things toddy and that’s always a good thing! Thank you

[@k-mparker]

Nice comprehensive compact video!!! Excellent overview on the the required maintenance and inspection of the RV!!! One item to add, is your fuse panel check. When checking the integrity of the connections, the screws attaching to the fuse have a recommended torque value to be set at. Mine are 32 inch pounds. I usually check ours twice a year. You will be surprised how loose than can get, and most importantly, thats a huge fire risk. A lot of coaches that are delivered those connections are loosely screw in without the correct torque. 👍😃🍻

[@MobileRVTechServices]

Thanks Mike and I appreciate the great tip. It was surprising how many screws and connections were loose when I went through the rig after we got it. Those loose electrical connections are a big fire risk for sure. -Steve

Just subscribe to your channel. New to the RV life as I purchased a used grand design 5th wheel. Excellent video on maintaining your RV. Thanks for sharing this information. 👍

[@MobileRVTechServices]

You are welcome Mike. We have a lot of other helpful videos on our channel you may find useful being new to RV life, trying to figure everything out. We also post helpful reels on our Facebook business page if you want to follow along and pick up bit size nuggets of knowledge. If you have questions, feel free to ask. ~ Steve Facebook business page: facebook.com/MobileRVTechServices

This is an excellent video. The 45 degree zerks are smart. I have a 90 degree fitting on my grease gun which works but its a bit of a pain. The leaf springs are toast. They are flattened and bent down.

[@MobileRVTechServices]

Thanks John, I think 90 degree zerks could be even better at getting the grease gun onto them. -Steve

I wish I would have found this video earlier. Great job.

[@roveriia6334]

Wouldn't recharging (removing captured moisture) the closet dehumidifiers inside your rig just put the moisture back in your RV?

[@MobileRVTechServices]

With recharging them in the open where there is a full-size dehumidifier, it doesn't affect the living space. They are for the closed-off spaces that don't have airflow.

[@carlosbarcelo2010]

Waooo thanks ❤

[@proto7688]

[@davesauerzopf6980]

Great info. Do you use any type of UV protection for your roof, awnings, and AC covers?

[@MobileRVTechServices]

Nothing besides the Wash & Wax soap when I wash the roof with a brush, soap & water.

[@tominmtnvw]

I’ve been trying to figure out what kind of grease gun I need and have come up butkus. Any help would be very much appreciated.

[@MobileRVTechServices]

RVs don’t take a lot of grease with a grease gun so a good hand pump gun does a good job. I prefer the pistol grip gun and have this one. amzn.to/3zdAq4V

[@jerry-381]

Great tips thank you for the video! I'm not a fan of Dicor sealant as it contains a large percentage of water and will shrink over time. A product like 3M 4000 won't shrink and is still waterproof with excellent adhesion.

[@MobileRVTechServices]

Jerry, I haven’t heard of that product being used on the PVC/TPO roofs before but I’ll look into it. I know there are a few options and Dicor has worked well so far on our roof. -Steve

[@sylviecharles8762]

Great channel! How can I get your checklist

[@MobileRVTechServices]

It’s in the video description.

[@yfnjaay2852]

im looking for a camper just to park at my ppl parking lot to live in it so i can be close to my 3 daughters im seprating from there mother of course eventually travel take kids to vacay but how much is like the eletric bills? it going to be sitting there

[@MobileRVTechServices]

It depends how many things you have running inside and the cost per KW hour of electricity in the area the RV will be parked.

[@bumponlog]

I'd think about removing that flexible hosing plumbed in your rv and replace with pex. It's a leak/flood risk waiting to happen. The manufacturer's don't attach it correctly/use the correct fittings. Really unfortunate that they put that junk in but it's quick and cheap which is about all they care about.

[@MobileRVTechServices]

Very true, the flex hoses on PEX fittings is the number 1 water leak I come across on fresh water systems. They either get replaced with PEX pipe or get a proper hose barb fitting that’s made for them.

[@MonaAnderson-hq8vy]

Window in door keeps slipping down . how do I fix this?

[@MobileRVTechServices]

If it’s a window that’s not supposed to move, it may need to be replaced. If it’s a slider window in a door, it could just be the latches. Without seeing it, I’m guessing. You may need a tech to look at it or try posting into a RVing Facebook group. -Steve Tech locator: RVTAA.org

[@kylecagalingan6018]

Just wondering, I am a heavy guy and wondering, whats the weight limit on the roof? 1st time going to walk through and do the maintenance. Thank you.

[@MobileRVTechServices]

It would depend on the manufacture and how the built the roof. Usually 5th wheels and motor homes are built stronger. If it says lite on the camper the roof is not strong. I crawl on those and stay on the trusses. Also it’s always better to crawl if you need to spread out the weight on the roof.

[@kylecagalingan6018]

@RadarRoadWarriors our trailer is grand design imagine xls. Do you think the roof is ok? For 270lbs?

[@MobileRVTechServices]

@@kylecagalingan6018 Grand Design is one that builds strong roofs. I wouldn’t be worried at 270 lbs on that roof. You do need to be careful near skylights, A/Cs or other large cut outs in the roof since the wood is weaker next to a large hole cut into a roof.

[@kylecagalingan6018]

@@MobileRVTechServices thank you so much!!!

[@annacoggins5518]

You can try using a smooth piece of thin plywood that’s what my husband does. He doesn’t use our back ladder either. But we have a motor home , not a fifth wheel. Hope this helps, safe travels❤

[@cheryljeavons-taffer6371]

Great info, but for a newbie, the speed of talking is too fast to try to catch everything. I had to rewind several times to the point where I was losing more information than gaining. Just a suggestion: slow down when you speak. Video is amazing and I will watch more.

[@MobileRVTechServices]

@@cheryljeavons-taffer6371 thanks for watching. It doesn’t seem like it when filming but yes I see the speed issue after the fact when it’s too late to correct it. It’s something I’m working on.

[@MexhomieXlll]

I need help with the 1st step 😭. So a big branch fell on top corner and now I have a gap where water can get it 😶😶.

[@MobileRVTechServices]

You might need to find a mobile RV Tech to fix it or bring it to a dealer to get it repaired.

[@rvfamilylife]

So it's okay to take the wheels off with the slides out?

[@MobileRVTechServices]

RV Family, If the slides are out and the RV is auto leveled, yes you can take 1 wheel off at a time. Also remember to use a jack stand or blocking under the axle. If all 4 tires were coming off at the same time, I have the slides in. -Steve

[@rvfamilylife]

@@MobileRVTechServices Awesome, thanks for the great tip.

[@Cellajean1]

Word of advice, learn to use inflection in your voice when you talk. Good advice thank you but trying to listen to your video is hard. Sorry

[@MobileRVTechServices]

I’m also trying to improve but right now, this is the best on camera skillset that I have.

[@TheMauser98a]

I have some offline questions can I email you questions. What is your email

[@MobileRVTechServices]

Stepside, Yes of course. Our email is on the KZbin about page but it might not show up on some phones. In case it doesn’t show up for you it’s [e-mail] -Steve
