The low pressure side should be no higher then 30 to 35 lbs. on the low side of the gauge set. To high and one gets into high pressure issues that can get real expensive quickly. Rich.

Felix, Have you looked for a bad fuse? Where is the condenser unit located, is it in the rear area next to the engine and CAC turbo air cooler, or under the coach between the front tires area? A bad fuse is far easier to replace then the blower motor. I would look real close around the passenger front kick panel for some screws hiding in the carpet nap. Some times it is much easier to find them with a magnet, held close to the bottom area where the panel and carpet meet. Got to be-leave that they would not make the coach that needs to have the entire dash removed to replace the blower motor. Rich.

Andy, Take a look at this link. Especially the animated ignition system. There is a 5.0 Ohm and a .5 Ohm ballast resister . You mentioned that the engine starts right up and quiets while running. #1-- I suspect one of the resisters is bad or loose connection. #2----The other possibility is the Ground connection for the ECM. There could be other items in the ignition wiring. How long has it been sense the last engine tuneup ? http://dave78chieftain.com/Dodge_Electron02.html The link also has some other good information. Rich.

American Coach - Navion R5000 A/V, Data Control replacement
dickandlois replied to tks3rd's topic in Electronics
You mentioned no help from Rev Group. Last time I contacted them, they had a lot of people on fer-low with a very limited staff at the office. because of the pandemic. could be the reason for limited information. Carl mentioned Silver leaf as a possibility, but not sure what there situation is at the time . The system is often interchangeable as Carl mentioned. Rich. -
Fuse panel locations on 2015 Holiday Rambler Ambassador 38dbt
dickandlois replied to bethboden's topic in Electrical
bethboden, Welcome to the FMCA Forum ! Nice looking Coach in and out! The only thing I found was power panel located above the drivers set. No Clue if it is AC power and 12 volt DC., But it might be worth a look. Downloaded the owners manual and it has no information covering the 12 volt power panels or fuse boxes. Think it would be worth a call to the seller and ask where the fuse panels are located. Rich.- 2 replies

If you can attach a picture or 2 to a response. That would help pin down what you are looking for. Rich.

Jon, Thanks for the heads up ! From your information and where the wire is run I see no problem(s) . Thinking from your information, that you cut the wire, repaired the problem after running it through the intended wire way. You have some good skill sets. Most of us would have been frustrated and not taken the time to find or even see where the issue was hiding. Good job and safe travels. Rich.

Bobby, Thanks for the feedback! Glad you got the fuel lines figured out. Rich.

Thanks Herman, but this is my concern. The odds are that your stick and brick wiring will not be exposed to the elements like a coaches is. This product is rated different then what one buys at a home supply outlet. https://www.energyefficientsolutions.com/Fire_Rated.asp Rich.

Herman, Do you know the flame ability factor of the insulation? Could it be ignited by an electrical issue? Rich.
-
Do you know if it is flame resistant? Could you also post the Make, Model and Year of your coach? great stuff! Intended for use in residential application to maintain the continuity of an approved fire block material. Not to be used in firestop applications. Rich.

This link will get you a maintenance manual that will cover about everything , but the multiple fuel tank plumbing. Section 7, Starting at page 133. https://www.gmcmi.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/P30-Chassis-Manual.pdf The manual offers some different sized fuel tank information. The coach builder may have requested a different tank setup or installed a modified setup to get the weight distribution that offered some headroom for the coach floor plan. Fuel pressure regulator reduces the pressure from 13 lbs to 4/5 lbs. I do have a manual that covers the electrical systems in the P 30 from around 1981 to 1991 ,like the same years covered in the chassis manual link above. The thing is it has around 1200 pages and if you do not have a good internet connection it will take a long time to download. 1984 GM Light Truck Service Manual (includes P30) and wiring diagrams. Includes typical dual tank selctor valve information. you Might try this link for some information. https://www.classicwinnebagos.com/forum/index.php?topic=12663.0 Rich.

That is interesting! Is there a name label on the on the air leveling control panel ? Rich.

TTbikes, This is a link to your chassis general specifications information. The chassis was built by Freightliner. https://cdn.fccchq.com/specsheets/5b7abd023abc44584cf0db3c/2006-Airstream-Land-Yacht-390.pdf A good starting point would be to contact Freightliner Custom Chassis. Give them the last seven charters of you Chassis VIN number and ask them to send you the Chassis Air Plumbing PDF files. Phone Number for Gaffney , Factory service is 1-855-253-0421 You might not understand the information, but if you attach the information to your / this thread the members can offer some info on how and what might be the issue. At this point we are all kind of in the dark. Rich.

2006 Monaco Windsor Chassis AC electrical problem
dickandlois replied to Dthietje's topic in Type A motorhomes
Dthietji, Because things work when the Mechanic forces things to run. It could be a common fuse that powers the compressor clutch and the blower motor- plus the evaporator cooling fan, Should the coach have a hydraulic cooling system to cool the evaporator. That leaves the fuse or a loose connection somewhere. Good luck Rich. -
Carl, Do you know who's air ride system was installed in your chassis? Rich.

Cummins ISL 8.9 450hp Aftermarket Chip For Increased Performance
dickandlois replied to keigm's topic in Engines
A little number crunching and the percentage increase might offer some usable information. If one knows the total cooling capacity of the system.( ?) For example, here's how to convert 5 mechanical horsepower to btu per hour using the formula. 5 hp(I) = (5 × 2,544.434187) = 12,722.170934 Btu/h Rich. -
However it is not a bad issue to review from time to time. Rich.
-
Think this question was asked and some information was offered on this Thread. ask questions if there is something you do not understand. Rich.

Wilkie, Fleetwood Service in Decatur IN. is for the most part is shutdown. Some people are working from home , most are fer-lowed. Hope the information offered helps. The one tenancy we have is to overload or exceed the weight limit of the slide systems. Rich. Additional slide information. https://www.google.com/search?q=lippert+schwintek+slide+out+troubleshooting&rlz=1C1VFKB_enUS711US716&oq=Lippert+Schwintek+slide+out+troubleshooting&aqs=chrome.0.0.8314j0j8&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#kpvalbx=_EXKpXpDZIoG4tQbykBY32

Wilkie, If you could offer the information requested by Brett, it would narrow down things a little more. Not knowing what your issue is for sure , lets start hear. In the meantime check out this link to see if it might be of help. Could be a timing issue. The motors need to be in sync . If it is not moving both rails equally the slide will bind. https://www.granddesignrv.com/sites/default/files/Schwintek-In-Wall-Troubleshooting-Guide.pdf. Rich. Will see what other information I can gather ! Re-timing sequence for the slide.

Could towing my Fusion have damage my front end?
dickandlois replied to jchaney12's topic in Toads-Towed Behind Motorhome
Welcome to the FMCA Forum ! Hybrid / Electric drive vehicles do not like to be towed in most cases 4 wheels down. Many need to be towed using a dolly or trailer. Have you looked up the tow ability of you model year? I'm thinking like Ross. CV joints or electric power steering issue? Rich.
