Is that for the wind sensor?

@@blairmarkus3416 Hi Blair, yes it is. Belinda and I were at the Coachmen center about a week ago getting our coach 1year check up. There was another class b next to us and they were there because they had awning issues. What they found was they did not ever change the batteries in their wind sensor and the batteries corroded. I figure if I replace mine every year like we do smoke detectors I will always be good to go.

@@blairmarkus3416 Took my 2023 I scheduled the 1 year check up in April and had it done on Sept 9th. The items that were addressed: 1. Truma flexible heater duct hose from Truma under couch rubbing on Ball screw of couch as it move up and down. 2. Shower head in bathroom would not extend long enough to be put in shower holder. 3. Check on awning recall. Found that it was ok and had latest mod. 4. Felt on back of sink was coming loose. 5. Existing tv antenna was replaced with new style and taller one. The existing one I could not get good tv reception. Since the upgrade, no issues in getting channels. The taller antenna is still lower than the height of the air conditioning unit. This antenna was replaced under warranty. 6. The technician also inspected all caulk joints and reapplied new. 7. The tech also told me that he was going to do a general inspection on other items that were not on my list. He was going to check electrical connections as well. We also used their free camping area on site at Coachmen. It has 30 amp service and shared water. There is also a dump area. It was quiet and Belinda and I walked the Pumpkinvine trail close by and had some nourishment at the local DQ. The technician met us at the campsite at 6:30am and got all the work done by 2pm. The only thing I would recommend if you are on site for service, those customer service facility has no vending machines. Bring food. You can make coffee on site. The lounge is comfortable and they have WIFI. There was a catering truck that did show up at around 12 noon
