My Forest River Rockwood signature 5th wheel control panel TP36Q10 failed at our campsite. We were stuck. Had to manually bring in 3 slides. The 3rd bedroom slide had to be battery override/control panel override with a drill motor battery to bring back into the 5th wheel coach. This I learned from a RV tech who we called but was unable to assist us. Guest were coming into our site the next day and we had to be off the site. Luckily we were able to get slides in and get out 5th wheel back home. However, It is not safe to use, we have canceled all further trips. (also see my youtube video link ( https://youtu.be/cH8sb5q1hIg) Forest river sent out the wrong replacement panel TP33Vv2. This did not fix the problem. This 5th wheel was made in 2019. This is not a old. This unit has not been modified or touched by anyone. Please send tech to my location to fix panel or replace. Please authorize budget for labor and parts. I already lost deposits for future trips. (Not Happy) Next step is BBB and consumer affairs. Please help. Thank you. [XXX] call anytime.
