Ok... The battery life will be kind of short with those, off brand batteries or not, because that keypad is always "on".. waiting for a touch..

It still sounds like you need to get that other regulator replaced. It is fairly cheap.

We have a 2014 177 and am experiencing the pinging regulator. It seems to work OK but I ran out of propane using my heater a lot (or so I thought), went to refill it and found that it was still half full. Evidently, it did not empty. Was going to have the regulator replaced but decided to add a second tank and a dual regulator. Hopefully that will solve the problem.

So I'm wondering how you resolved the issue with the keyless entry? We are having the same issue right now

Been retired since '97.. It rocks. Especially if you do it early. (I was 37)
![Smile Smile](smileys/smiley1.gif) On the lock.. If it is accepting the touches, but giving a long beep, Batteries MAY be low. You MAY have reset the code to the factory default. You MAY be entering the numbers to fast. You MAY be entering the numbers to slow. Your manual should give you the default combo, and tell you how to reset it, and tell you how to set a custom combo. Pinging regulators have happened, it's a warranty thing.

The problem with having a new trailer is that it makes us want to be retired. For me that's still five years off. ![Wink Wink](smileys/smiley2.gif) My mother tells me not to wish my life away. I'm trying, I really am. |
Hmmmm, I have the same problem but my problem concludes in about 1 year, 8 months, 3 weeks..................... ![Wink Wink](smileys/smiley2.gif) We're big into snowmobiling and I've never been this disappointed to see the warm weather leave but I've always loved fall, (my second favorite season) .
