Does anyone know of a short cut for these things?

I have cruise airs, and for me there was no other way but to take the wall out, and get to everything and have it done right. It might be able to be done with out the wall, but I think would be difficult, it is real tight, even with the wall out of the way. It also gives you a good look at every thing, to check for any other damage, or things that need to be addressed.

I do wish I would have had someone else there to help, that has done it before, it would have been a lot easier, than me trying to figure it out, but I am close to being done, and the hardest part is over!

Nick,

Are you still trying to get to the hot water heater? I took everything apart when I replaced it and didn't have to mess with the cruise air of phone. You have to take all the panels out from behind the mirror and they go back like a jigsaw puzzle so yes, take lots of pictures.

I'm back from my cruise so ping me if you have questions.

Dan,

I'm 99% sure I got it fixed last night. I'm going to fill it and do a test today.

Hi Nick,

Hot water still works like it should!
There was a time when water was seen leaking on to the DD engine.

Would you know what I did to make this happen.
It’s no longer leaking and system seems fine.

Can you send me pictures?
