I had been thinking I...

I just did the same repair on my 2012 Cougar Xlite 26SAB. Five of the six screws were snapped off. Probably had been that way for a while.

In fact, when I picked it up from the dealer in 2012 they...

I use a magnetic door stop on one of my doors to hold it open. Works great and they're only about $6 at Home Depot.

Do both gray tanks drain to the same dump connection? If so, get a twist on valve for the dump connection and open both gray tank valves so they equalize.

I do this sometimes when dry camping if...

Our pump does that when the battery is low. The voltage drops and the pump is unable to build up enough pressure for the pressure switch to shut off the pump.

Sounds like you're not getting 12v to the A/C or radio. Double check those fuses. Are the other 12v items such as lights and pump working?

No, they fit in the fixture just fine although they are up against the aluminum reflector. That's why I did the temperature measurements.

We have a 2012 26SAB. Our pump is under the oven. There is a wood panel under the oven you have to remove to reach it.

I recommend Discount Tire. They'll push Carlisle tires because that's the only trailer tire they stock but they can get whatever you want in a few days.

Good luck!

Since it's happened at two different campgrounds my guess would be a wiring problem in the RV that's putting 230v from the 50 amp service onto one of the 120v legs in the trailer.
