  1. Good point Richard. I put Sea Level monitors that mount on the outside of the tank. They work great. Herman
  2. Looks like you got a good coach. You may need to first check to see who is the manufacturer of the guages and give them a call to their tech department. When you find who made the guages let us know, someone may have the same issue. Herman
  3. RyaIn, Is that one coach with an odd rear end or the tailend of a second coach? Look in your trash file and you may find the lost shots. Herman
  4. Lorne, Sorry, I haven't seen a post from you before so WELCOME to the Forum. Seventeen year ago when we purchased our first MH I would take one of my Dish Networks receiver from the house and use it in the MH and return it when we returned home. This worked until we got our current Coach. At present time we have a Dish Hopper Sling in the house with 2 Joies (3 TVs) We also have a Hopper Sling with 2 wireless Joies in the MH. I went wireless in the MH to cut down on the wiring. Both units work great and they are on one bill (account). I have never had Direct nor will I, but that's a personal issue. I have lots of friends with Direct and at this time haven't spoken of an issue like yours. With Dish and we have traveled out of our zone for our locals all I have to do is call Dish and they will switch us to the local of the area where we are. (I have to remember to have them move our local back home when we return home). What we have at home is a standard 3 LNB dish on the roof and in the MH we have a Winegard "Dish Traveler 1000". I hope you resolve your issue with Direct but if not "Come on over to Direct". Herman
  5. Same thing happened to me and I can tell you everything from the engine back gets wet with oil from the blow by and man is there a lot of dirty and oily dirt under there. Good luck and keep on RVing. Herman
  6. Why not a simple gutter extender to carry the water farther away from where the currently drip, place a pot of flowers where the water drips for beautification purposes. Ah, KISS. Herman
  7. Sorry Bill, did I miss something. You said that you were booked at Oceanside From May 19 - 29, 2019, but you are looking to book someplace east of Oceanside May 12 - 29, 2019? Are you booking at 2 places on the same dates? Or do you mean May 12 - 19, 2019? Herman
  8. miturn1 Does anything on the AC work? Blower, Heater. If the Blower is working check and see if the Compressor is engaging. If it is engaging and still not blowing cold air then you may have low or no Freon. If the blower is not engaging you can check it by unplugging the unit and run a jumper to it and see if it engages. If it does engage there is a component up front that may be bad. On my Monaco I found the wire to the blower had a break somewhere so I ran a new wire and all is well. I also had a very slow leak but in checking all my fittings I found one that tighten less that 1/4 turn and the leak stopped. As Brett said any good automotive A/C tech can,if willing, work on the unit. The only difference is that the hoses are 40 feet long rather then just 4 feet long. Herman
  9. I like it. It is very thought provoking. Nelson Mandela was a good man. Herman

    NO Start

    hdrich, When you said the starter is new, do you mean it is brand new, rebuilt or remanufactured? Just my opinion, it's the solenoid. It is stuck and will not move causing the clicking noise. You have checked all connection, the battery is good and you said the generator will start off the same battery which means you have fuel ( if you were out of gas it would turn over but not start). Solenoid. But heck I have been wrong more than once. Herman

    NO Start

    One other item, if the engine will crank but not start it could possibly be the electronic ignition module. But it will not turnover it it could be a starter solenoid. But the OP said the starter was bench tested. And it may have been a bad test. Wish we knew more about the details. Herman
  12. We were at an RV area last week that had pedestals with 2ea 30 amp outlets and 2ea 15 amp outlets. Several were having issues with their pedestals. I got to checking and found on several pot that the 30 amp plugs were both on the same leg. Moved one of the breakers over to the second leg and wala problem solved. Sorry but if the OP is on the first 50 amp pedestal since Perry he might try hooking to another another to see if it may just be the pedestal before tearing into his ATS. Herman
  13. Like most, my Inverter/charger charges my house batteries when on Shore or Generator. My engine charges my house batteries AND chassis batteries when the engine is running. To keep the chassis batteries charged when parked but on shore power, I mounted a trickle charger and plugged it into my block heater plug. That is a 120 VAC plug, so only "hot" when on shore power or generator. When plugged into shore power or with the generator running it is maintaining the chassis batteries. Haven't had an issue with the batteries in over three years. Trickle charger at WalMart $14.95 + tax and about an hour labor. Herman
  14. Thanks Richard, that's the site I couldn't remember. Herman
  15. I found a site where they had a Country Coach Key Fob for $9.95. But darnet I can't remember the site. They are out there you just need to search for them. I found it by googling country coach key fob. Herman
  16. According to the FMCA Towing Guide up to 2016 they are towable with restrictions. 2017 and newer NO. Herman
  17. Duh! (sorry the Devil made me do it) Your right is does change perspective. Herman
  18. For Texas not in the summer. Spring and fall are great. Honk when you come through Texas. Herman
  19. jkhac, Welcome to the Forum. As Brett said check your codes to start. I question your statement " MotorHome has old fuel and has been recycled through filter and put back in and changed both Fuel Filter and Water Separator and Algae chemical put in fuel tank." If it were me I would have removed the old fuel and replaced it with new fuel. I had a similar situation where I could slowly get up to speed but had no power. It turned out to be the High Pressure Pump. I also have a 2002 Monaco Dynasty with a 400 ISL. We wish you luck and please tell us what you found, it will help other that may have a similar issue. Herman
  20. gkellerjr, Welcome to the Forum. All those steps are, to me quite confusing. Had we had the opportunity before you purchased the Hawk I would have recommended a small Chevrolet, GMC or Dodge 4 wheel drive. I myself tow a 2011 Chevrolet Silverado 4x4. Tows like a dream. I too have a Blue Ox tow bar with a M&G air brake. If you wire your vehicle with diodes you could, on the same harness, wire in a trailer plug. You would need to make the connections before the diodes. Good luck, Herman
  21. Thank you DBenoit.😂 Maybe we could get your DW to post some. Herman
  22. Thank you and a Happy Easter to you and all. Herman
  23. OlYeller Then the M&G 2.0 will work. Herman
  24. OlYeller, Does you 2007 VW have power brakes? If so the M&g 2.0 will work. I have contacted Monty and ask if the 2.0 will work on a VW without power brakes. He will get back to me Monday or Tuesday. Herman
  25. Can you tell if it is coming from just one or all the jack? If just one can you tell which one? Also can you level with your air or can you only level with the jacks? Herman
