Page, AZ High 101 Low 81
The mobile repair guy showed up Tuesday morning a few minutes early for our appointment. He was a really nice guy and also pretty honest. He told us that he was doing this repair as a favor to Camping World because he quit working on stoves 10 years ago because they weren’t worth the time involved.
Okay – so what next? He lit the oven, it heated up to temperature, and when the burner went out so did the pilot light. Exactly what Jim told him and exactly what the first repair guy said. This guy wasn’t sure what was causing the problem so he called Suburban and talked to one of their techs. They said he needed to replace the pilot.
That was a good thing because the first guy thought that was what was wrong and had Camping World order a new pilot and a thermocouple back the end of May. This guy had the parts but when he opened the box, there was no pilot. Camping World ordered the wrong parts. Nothing that could be done so he packed up and left.
We also packed up, switched boats and headed north Wednesday morning. Even though it was really hot while we were in AJ, I didn’t want to leave our home. But leave we did.
Tonight we are in Page, AZ. We about killed ourselves getting to Arizona in two days and we just cannot do that. We are taking four days to get back to Helena. Much more reasonable for us old people.
Please take it easy! It's super hot and that makes ya tired in itself! I'm not gonna miss the summer heat...
ReplyDeleteThe hear does zap you so take it easy. What a hassle that oven has been.
ReplyDeleteBe careful going back the heat is back in force. My cousin called today from Sun City, CA. and it was 109 that's about what it was here today too.
ReplyDeleteSlow but steady is now the gait for many of us. Don't you think by our age we should have learned how to take care of ourselves? Why do we have to keep learning old lessons?
ReplyDeleteYikes.....maybe it would have been cheaper to replace the entire dang stove then to make that drive? Take it easy you guys...LOL
ReplyDeleteThat is frustrating about your oven,, hope you get it working properly someday soon. Taking your time travelling is much more relaxing.
ReplyDeleteWe've done the thing in two days too and I agree with you. Never again. It's especially hard because you have your two furr kids to watch over. Slow down and take it easy because you're going to be doing this soon enough again!
ReplyDeleteSorry you are having to deal with all of this.
ReplyDeleteYou have to stop doing those PDD days! ;c)
ReplyDeleteThere is always something going on with the RVs aren't there? Safe travels my friends! Wish I would have used the PDD days on your earlier post :-)

ReplyDeleteWhy am I not surprised that Camping World got it wrong. They not on my go to list and I bought my current RV from them.
ReplyDeleteThat is so frustrating. Can't believe they didn't have the part. Idiots.
