Lee and I have developed a name for some of the strange happenings here in our RV….we call it ‘RV Randomness’. Here are a few of our examples:
Shortly after we brought the RV home the air conditioner was making horrible sounds. We read everything we could about the air conditioner and then Lee took things apart and cleaned it out thoroughly. Still made the noise. So we had dad come over to listen and see what he thought…noise was gone. RV Randomness!
After about a year we found a pool of water in the linen closet and there was water between the shower and the closet. We dried it all up and as there was not water in the basement, we figured it must be from the shower walls. So Lee caulked all the seams over and over. Got rid of the leak…for several months…then it came back ONCE! RV Randomness strikes again!
Then we got a small leak under the bathroom sink. Lee replaced all of the faucet rings, but it still leaked, so he replaced the cartridges. Still leaks, but only about once every month or so. We can’t figure out where the water comes from, and since it only happens rarely, we just leave a small container and paper towel under the sink. Part of Lee’s shaving routine is to check the paper. Sometimes its wet, but most times its dry. RV Randomness!
Our hot water in the bathroom sink is sometimes hazy and bubbly. Not often, but sometimes. Never in the shower. Never in the kitchen sink. Just the bathroom hot water. RV Randomness!
Occasionally when we stop for the night we don’t hook up the water and so just use the fresh water and pump. Most of the time the water is just as good coming from the tank, but on rare occasions it has come out dirty looking. So we empty the tank and refill and its fine for a while and then…boom…here it is dirty looking again! Then it will just clear up on its own. RV Randomness or dirt in the bottom or our tank? UGH
Now we are on our way to the manufacturer in Kansas. Our rig is an 06, and so it is time for some maintenance work. Maybe they will even fix some of the ‘RV Randomness’ ??????
Do you have examples of ‘RV Randomness’ ?
ps..Judy, thanks for joining my blog. I’ve read yours and love it! My family is from Minnesota and I can relate to the accent and language! I’ve tried to send you a comment, but for some reason have not been able to. I’ll keep trying, but meanwhile, welcome!

I'm not sure I'd consider my present brake problem random, but every six months or so my automatic stairs close up without any prompting from me. Makes for a little adventure every time I open the door. :)
So far we haven't experienced this randomness. I don't mean to laugh at you but you tell a funny story. Enjoyed!
When will you be in Smith Center? We have an appointment the 24th. Our warranty is up in December so we are having a few things worked on and a general check up. Would be fun if we were there at the same time.
