    So, what does the "wayward" solenoid control?

    Is it to the non-functioning parts of the air system?

    Sorry, no first hand information on your system.

    Have you asked HWH for a quote on conversion to their system?

     

    Yeah I have. Price starts at 15 thousand dollars US. 35% more for us Canadians. Lol gotta love government.  


  3. Ok thanks, I have put a multimeter on the and they do have power.  I did however use a ohmmeter to see if they measure equal and 3 solenoids had .005 ready feeding them. The solenoids them self had .008 reading across them. Only one had a higher reading at .025 from feed and .018 on the solenoid. See pic attached.  The one on the right had a different reading then the others. 

    Thanks for the input.

    Eddy,

    Welcome to the FMCA Forum.

    Please tell us what coach/chassis you have so we may be of assistance.

    What leveling system do you have?

    Is it not leveling properly when parked/leveled or in travel mode?

    The coach is 2005 Holiday rambler Imperial.  Roadmaster chassis.  Intelli Ride Rite system from Firestone. The system won't air up at all. The tanks fill up to 120 psi but won't transfer air into the air bags.  The air bags are not flat, just won't come up to ride height.  Thanks for all your help.


  5. Thank you for all your input.  I've been working on this for the last 10 days. All linkages are intact and secure. I have had a computer guys try to recalibrate the system but says the ECU to control the system isn't talking to the computer.  Therefore he is unable to reset. Anyone k ow if there is a manual reset on the ride systems? Thanks for all your help.

    Flintstonecat,Welcome to the FMCA Forum!

    The quick drop could be simple to fix. The ride height needs to be the same at all four corners, if one or more are different then the others. The system will quickly dump air as the system try's to correct the level point. 

    Rich.

    Thanks Rich. I have opened my dump valve on the front of the coach.  Air drains off the system but the front end remains high. Any idea why ? Is it the ride height sensor's that are preventing it from dropping? Any help is appreciated. 


  7. Thanks for the reply.  I have check those ride height values and all are attached and secure.  I went as far as taking the arm off and manipulated the arm to try and dump air. Raising and lowering the arm to its upper and lower limits.  Nothing happened.  Is this normal? Should air leak out one way or another? Stranded in Oregon. 


  8. Thanks for replying.  The Firestone intelli ride rite system is what I'm having trouble with.  It won't inflate the air bags to travel mode. The front end is ok but the back end is completely down, although the air bags them self have air in them and I've done soapy water test and no sign of leaks. The coach will air up to 130lbs and then purge to about 120lbs. I've had a computer guys come and try to recalibrate system but he says it's not reading the ECU unit. I can't find a replacement anywhere.  I'm currently stranded in Eugene Oregon going on 11 days and no ones familiar with this system.  All say it discontinued and Firestone has sold the system to a company in Ireland.  Any suggestions?
