RE: greasing bearings
I have a Cameo with the dexter axles with the fitting to grease the bearings. The axle hub is covered by a large crome cap. At the end of the cap there is a circle of metal that does not appear to be part of the cap. It seems to be where the fitting to grease would be. Do I flip this open to get to the fittings? The reason I ask is there does not appear to be a slot or anything to help flip it off. I did not want to scratch it up or even break it IF I have to take the whole large cap off. How do I get to the fittings? Thanks,
Do NOT use them. Have your bearing properly packed by hand not by a grease gun. A typical grease gun can put out up to 10,000 lbs of pressure and can blow grease past your seals. This will result in a several hundred dollar repair bill having the backing plate replaced. Trust me from experience on this.

RE: ATTENTION ALL MEMBERS - NEW DOMETIC RECALL
I have performed many of the recalls and Dometic has so far only denied one service(trip) charge. If you call Dometic and let them know that your trailer is a fixed sight and can't be moved, they will usually pay. Don't tell them your tires are off, cuz you can install them to move it. Don't tell them it's a seasonal, cuz the when the season is over, you can get it done then.

RE: ATTENTION ALL MEMBERS - NEW DOMETIC RECALL
Other than replacing your cooling unit (around 900 bucks) there is nothing else. It's all based upon a crack developing in the tube itself. If you change your heater element, it won't cool as well and you'll be setting the temp to the highest setting.
