Re: Small wood stove in 1995 40 ft Safari Serengeti
Thank you for the feedback. When it gets that cold, that is when you can see and feel the lack of insulation. That stove looks like it has some decent btu output capability, and yet from what you were describing, it was just keeping up. This kind of feedback helps put this reality in perspective. So...

Re: Engine Comm Failure Message
I would suggest giving Dave Atherton a call, 605-997-0720. He is a retired CAT master troubleshooter and is very knowledgeable and helpful.

Re: Small wood stove in 1995 40 ft Safari Serengeti
Nice setup! Looks like your pup really appreciates that cozy radiant heat. :D Do you go through a lot of wood on the frigid nights? It's hard to tell from the angle of the picture, but is the diamond aluminum sheet larger on the inside or the same size as visualized on the outside framed in the wind...

Re: Rec Pro 15K AC w/Heat Pump
A friend of mine replaced his original Dometic with a new Dometic heat pump unit. He had issues with thermostat wiring to adapt to the new system, but otherwise he says that the unit works well on both heating and cooling.

Yes, please post pictures of your setup, especially the chimney. If the photos don't load, you likely need to shrink the file of the photos, and then they will go through.

Re: Where is it?
I don't know, but some of the old SMC manufactured Safaris had their brake fluid reservoir over the driver's side front wheel. Maybe another Simba owner can chime in...

Re: Battery to engine wiring
The section of the diagram that says coach batteries is the house batteries and the DC system those batteries run, including the inverter. If you are looking for the 120v side of the house/coach electrical system, that would be a different diagram...
