    Higher RPM's helps but does not solve the problem. I'm showing signs of excessive heat on engine door insulation. 

    With your above statement I would lean towards dirty Radiator and CAC. What that tells me is that it is trying to draw as much air across to radiators as it can but need more air flow and a clean radiator will give it that needed flow.

  2. Doc, since you don't seem to be in a rush and would like to take you time and see a bit. Here is a route you may enjoy.

    Hwy 59 north to Livingston. You could make an appointment and have your coach weighted.

    On north on Hwy 59 to Lufkin then to Nacogdoches Tour the Foretravel Plant and stop in at Motorhomes of Texas. Who knows you might find a coach you can't live without.

    From Nac you can take Hwy 21 and Louisiana 6 Natchitoches, Louisiana.

    Take Hwy 84 to Natchez, Mississippi then Hwy 61 to Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

    Take I-12 out of Baton Rouge to 1-10 on to Biloxi, MS, Pascagoula, MS and into Mobile Alabama.

    While you are in Mobile you could also venture over to Pensacola and maybe see the Blue Angles.

    Not the most direct but a heck of a lot of great things to see and do.

  3. Mark, you can check the inside of the transfer switch yourself but before you do please disconnect the shore power, turn off the inverter and just to be on the safe side disconnect the ground cable on the house batteries. By doing that you won't have any shocking surprises.

    Good luck hope you find your problem.

  4. Mark,

    Two different Items, the Transfer Switch changes to power from shore to generator power. The Surge Guard is to protect the coach from a BADLY wired shore pedestals.

    Before coaches had transfer switches you would have to plug in either the Shore Power cable or the Generator cable into the coach receptacle  

    Most of the time the builtin surge guard is mounted on the side of the transfer switch case. Removing the cover will tell you of the surge guard has blown while protecting the coach.

    If you find that the surge guard is good then a good way to test the Transfer Switch is to run the generator and see if you get power to the coach. If you do get power then your relay may be stuck or burnt.

  5. David, how about going to Clarion and purchasing another NX 501? Or even having yours repaired. You may have to rely on a map or your phone till you get yours repaired or replaced.:rolleyes: 

    By having it repaired or replaced by the same unit you wont have to learn a completely new system.

  6. Mark, 

    Welcome to the Forum.

    We were going to do the same thing but to Ruidoso but we would have had to self quarantine for 14 days or the duration of our stay, which ever was the shortest. You may find the same going up to the Northeast. 

    We have changed our plans and are going to Sargent Beach RV Park on the Gulf.

    I am going to send you a PM to have you call me when you can. 

    Again welcome. 

    Herman
