220v for washing machine?
(Preview)
It looks like we're going to have to replace the washing machine in our Mobile Suites. I'm struggling to find a machine that will fit in the space.

Multi Meter
(Preview)
I suspect I have a bad light switch, as one day it turned the light on and the next day it did not.

Where/how to check RV height

I am just wondering where you would get your RV height checks. Do truck stops do this or what. I saw one video where the guy used a 2x4 and a level but it seems like that would be subject to some variation due to ground slope etc.
