Exclamation Please help! Need info!

we just bought a 2005 wildwood 255rls fifth wheel and there were no manuals that came with it. I have been trying for the last 2 days to find any info on the internet with no success. even went on the forest river web site. does anyone have a manual or brochure for the year 2005 that shows our model?
thank you

the manuel that comes with a travel trailer is very general. i didn't think mine was worth the paper it was printed on. did not even show locations of anything.
each item in the trailer has its own manuel.

with that said, if there is anything in particular u need help with, just ask. someone on here probably has an answer.

i have a general schematic of the electrical in a cardnal. can give u an a idea on how the electrical works (see attach).

i have one on the furnace and one on winterizing (winterizing was by someone on here, i hope it gives them credit for it)

i don't know if u have the ez lube axels or not. this is one on them. you may want to do a search on them before u add grease. you will find it needs to be done soon and spairingly.

the one on winterizing, was posted by one of the members here (not me). i hope it gives proper credit to the author.

Get the model number and maker's name off of your stove, micro, water heater, furnace, etc. Go to manufacturer's site and look around. They often have manuals you can download, even for discontinued items.

Best I can do are the specs for the current model.

PS check the plate on the side of the trailer.

There should be a form on your door below the sink (or another cupboard door) with all the info you need. It is the weight of the trailer as it left the mfg. It will also list all of the option and make of appliances you have in your TT.
