6 volt batteries vs. 12 volt battery

Has anyone went to 1 12 volt battery vs. 2 6 volt batteries?

Having no luck with golfcart batteries from Sam's club

light switch

You might also want to check the connections at the breaker panel to make sure they are tight.

I don't think changing bulbs is going to fix your problem with the switch getting hot.

Good Luck...

It is the check valve at the top of the water heater making your noise.
You can either replace it or take it off and take the insides out of it and put it back on.

DRV

The best guy they ever had DRV got rid of.
His name was Kent Mickem and when you had a problem he would take care of it.
Seems no one cares anymore.....it's all about profit, not customer service

Sam's Club also has 6 volt golf cart batteries and a pretty reasonable price.

Ron,
If it was me I wouldn't want that either.
If the thermostat is bad, why not replace it with one like the original one.
Seems like IF a wire came loose, it would be easier to find the loose...

I am sure you already checked the connections at the breaker box itself.

On mine, there were several wires that were loose and could be tighten quite a bit more.

I agree with Joe as far as placing the jack under the spring pad.

You would need a whole bunch of blocks to jack it under the frame.

Leo,

The reason I ask about welding, are there only 3 bolts on each end of the x-factor braces?
I can see the braces are stong, was wondering if there was more than these bolts.
