Power Cord Reel Cover

[RickV]

I broke one of the little tabs that the power cord door cover pivots on. It still stays in place but, I'd like replace it. I have searched and cannot find the replacement parts. If you look in the upper right corner of the cover you can see where it broke. Anyone know where I can find this?

I know there is a parts supplier called Trekwood. They have a good reputation for inventory but the one time I used them their ordering process was not satisfactory.
Maybe a small piano hinge mounted on the existing screws (of the frame) or trade those out for flat stove screws and small screws with washer backing on the door (cover) would be easier than chasing down a new part. It would also be much stronger than the existing design. You have to be creative sometimes with some RV repairs.
Good luck

Trekwood would. Have it, any RV parts place could get it too. NTP/STAG carry it but the general public can’t order directly from them.

It might actually be less effort to drill carefully into the broken stub on the door, and glue a longer plastic (or even metal) pin in there. I did that to a door on my last rig, and it lasted the remaining life of the rig. I think I used a plastic toothpick or something similar.

Thanks for the replies. I like both of the fix suggestions will try the make new pin idea first as it seems to be the quick fix and I am on the road. The piano hinge idea sounds more permanent and sturdy so I'll probably do this instead of buying a new flimsy one.
