Fuzion 371 issues on first trip

[pmcmath]

Hello....new Fuzion owner here. Anybody had any issues with there city water connection? Took our new 2015 371 out this weekend and found water leaking all into my storage area when directly hooking up to the water. I could barely get the connection port to turn to get the hose onto it. Trust me it was not cross threaded as I always check since its plastic to metal. Also our central vac ran for about a minute then went sluggish and shut right down. Not sure what happened here but it will not turn on at all. Everything else though is awesome as we expected but those two things didnt make the wife too happy and having a kid there is some dirt that needed some attention after our stay.

As for the central vac. make sure that extra bags and parts are not stored inside and install a bag. This was the case with mine. Open it up, as you to empty it and see if anything is stored in there.

Was it leaking from behind the panel or directly from the connection on the front? Check to make sure there is a gasket in there. I second checking the vacuum inside. The spare bags were in ours as well.

I have to use Teflon tape on the water connection to keep it from leaking. I have not had any problems with the central vac.

Yea I checked the inside of the vacuum system. Hooked the bag on and turned it on and it ran for 5 seconds and then shut right down. Flipped switch on and off and nothing.

As for the water it was leaking in behind the storage wall somewhere. The fitting connection acted like it was messed up or crossed up somewhere internally. It did not want to accept the hose really well at all and it did not leak at all at the fitting. Its going into my dealer tomorrow morning at 10:00am to get fixed. Will let everyone know the outcome.

On your water leak make sure your screen inside the water connection is turned the right way ,I had mind turned around on our last camper and when I hooked the hose up it crank the connection and I had to replace it ,As far as the vac I agree check the inside for the bag and spare parts thats where mine was.

Which way does it need to be facing??? Wire bulge in or out? I had mine facing out....
