3050s shakedown questions

went on a long trip with new 3050s, have a few questions that i hope someone can answer. 1- lost a clearance bulb over the cab, what is the bulb for that. 2 -latch on dinning table keeps coming loose, so table keeps coming down. someone must have a 25 cent home depot fix for that. 3 found 5 different screws on floor during trip, can not find matches for them. hats off to ford, got 8.6 miles to gallon. does anyone have a bulb list for the outside lighting of the unit ythanks in advance for any help.

I can only answer one question and thats for the mystery screws. More than likely, they didn't come out of anything and were left over from construction. May have rolled out from under something. I've found quite the collection, plus some other things during removal of vents, panels and creating access panels. The more panels and compartments you open, the more items you'll probably find. Probably find a bit of sawdust and wire pieces too. Hold onto the screws, you may need them for something later.

At least in Heaven, RVs will be perfect, and I won't have to keep fixing them.

If you have a dream dinette which is coming down only while traveling, I suggest you get an expandable shower curtain rod and fit it between the floor and the underside of the table while traveling to hold it up in a fairly rigid position. Our dream dinette table rattled significantly when going over bumps in the road and we solved the noise problem with a curtain rod which is used only while traveling.

If its a dream dinette you should not need to do this. There is a lever on the bottom of the dinette. That lever LOCKS the table into an upright position.

Push the table all the way up. There is a metal bar with an "L" shaped end. It should be laying against the underside/bottom of the table...grab that and make it lay on the OTHER side of the bottom of the table.

If that doesn't work something is loose and should be fixed. If you need a shower rod...something is amiss.

Might not lay completely flat..but there is a bar that will fit into a white nylon notch. That's what locks the table up. If you post a picture of the bulb/lens I'll see what I can find.
