APD, the symptom matches, for sure. Of course, it seems that the symptom could have several causes. But the EASY one is reversed wiring - at the converter, right?

I think that's what all three...

a short in the battery wiring?

After major repair this spring, followed by lots of little tasks I've done to prepare my 2006 T-139 for travel, I've a new conundrum.
A friend helped me install the battery, connecting its wires,...

jmac215, I'm thinking of selling my 2005 T-139. Are you set on an X-139? (And did you find any current ones for sale on SmartRVguide?) Let me know if you might be interested, and I'll gather photos...

Several months later, the repair work on my 2006 T130 is finally done, there are no leaks now, I'm $3000 poorer, but I'm finally back and it's time to get the functional things functioning. I'm even...

No doubt! Household chores 'suck'. I'm not sure what they suck - the air out of my tires? the wind out of my sail?
But modifications are SO not in my skill set. I'll have to beg, plead, coerce, or...

Dan, you are handy-dandy! (pun perhaps intended) You came up with all kinds of little modifications - and some bigger ones, too, I believe. Thanks for sharing. The cargo net is probably a good plan.

The T-139 is so small that it's really hard to find anything small enough for it. However, I did look at National RV Covers after Twinster suggested it, and they actually do make one that would fit!...

Thank you for pointing me to a link that provides some hope! My floor plan has the vanity in the back, too - what a waste of space! So that would be a nice thing to change.

T-139 cover

Last year (and the winter before) I looked and looked and looked for a cover that would fit the T-139. I found nothing. I bought expensive tarps and came up with ways to attach them. This was...

adding cabinets to T-139

Since my T-139 has no bunk anymore, I've wondered about adding more cabinets to the front of the kitchen cabinets. I've looked and looked online for anything like that, but...it's a desert out there...

T-139 no bunk - how to use the space?

The bunk on my T-139 was removed by the previous owner. To me, it seems like it's now totally wasted space. It makes sense to make a shelf (or shelves) of some sort - something to hold bedding and...

Battery for T-139

I may have an opportunity to buy two Autocraft deep cycle 24DC-1 12v batteries (550CCCA) for about $100 each. Would these work for my T-139? If they would, it seems like a "steal" for virtually "new".

Smile update on T139 front end repair

I thought I'd let you know - after almost 18 months, the "repair" of the front end is done. It was more of a rebuild, from the edge of the kitchen cabinets forward. No, I didn't do it myself - none...

That's a good thought. But I believe there's enough room to make a double layer of Reflectix between the boards. Per home depot, it's "R-3.7 to R-21, depending on the application". I daresay the...

Yes, it was more damage than we thought was there. :( It's more like the whole front end (except one side is ok).

The exterior is aluminum. The wood walls are only two layers of 1/8" wood on the...

I don't/won't have the option to blow it out with compressed air, so I think I really need to discover if there's a low point drain and where it is!

We think we opened all the valves - sure hope...

What is under the roof on a 2006 T139?

This week we finally tore off the paper and foam core that had been put up to hide the damage from the leak in the front corner of my "new" T-139. It was more extensive than we thought, starting in...
