Coleman Camper problem found


March 5 2016 - it is a good day to open the camper for the first time.  Good weather which is not too chill and sunny. When I started to open the camper, I quickly spotted several problems.  The chipmunk has been living inside the camper for the mild winter.  I have already try to prep the camper before winter.  I used a lot of dryer sheet (as recommended by fellow camper) to prevent critters from destroying the camper.  Year 1, this method is good.  This Year (year 2), I failed the task.  

Here is a few pictures of the damages done by chipmunk.




I got 6 holes totally.  3 holes on the camper vinyl reinforced & 3 holes on the camper canvas.  

In additional to the damages by chipmunk, I also found out the power converter is not working.  The light flick and converter is beeping.  Sounds like a faulty circuit.  The power converter is Exilir EXL-25, which no longer in production.  After google, I found a replacement parts WFCO WF8725P.  The cost to replace the converter is about $100.


I got more spring tasks to fix up the camper before summer camping trip.
