With so many members now posting in the forum with many different year, model, chassis, power train, I believe it would be very helpful if you have a technical question:

Post what year, model, chassis, power train you have at the beginning of your post.

Or:

Post what year, model, chassis, power train you have in a signature at the bottom. That way you only have to type it once forever.

Hopefully, that will get you fast and accurate answers to your specific questions, problems.

Here is a 5 step tutorial on how to set up a signature profile as mentioned above.

1) You need to be signed in...

2) Click here for your personal zone - members profile page.

3) On that page click on the link, to the right, titled View/Edit Complete Profile



4) Scroll down to the Signature area and type the relevant information into the box.



5) Make sure you save it by clicking the "Submit" button! You'll need to scroll all the way down to see it.



From now on, each time you post, that information will always show up on the bottom of your post.

If you need help setting up your signature profile, contact me via PM or email.

FYI: Everything you see below this statement, is in my signature profile.

For 1978 - 1987 your tag should look like these.

The data tag number in this photo is: 8411 3165 28FP3





The data tag number in this photo is: 8607 3340 22FP1



This tag is typically located around the drivers side curtain track area or lower. Could also be in an overhead cabinet around there too.





An additional note: That mean that an earlier 1978 could also look like this.



Or a late 1987 could also look like this.

Since we have a lot of new owners and forum members, it's a good time to bump this thread.

No two Barths are the same, so a complete description of the coach is the only way we know what to suggest. If your problem is with an appliance or accessory, pleased describe it by make model, fuel/power, size, etc.

Does work..... for me anyway. I have run Shrinkpic for years now, mainly to automatically resize photo's when emailing. Set to open and run in the background on start-up, and have found it to be essential for trouble free mailings. 10/10

If you take photos with a phone camera, they are usually very high resolution with millions of pixels. They take up lots of memory storage and sometimes are displayed too large. If you want to change the size of the photo file and display, this application will do that.. (I have not used it, I use the Preview application on my Mac.)
