COMMON SENSE SUGGESTION FOR ANY ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE CO.
bm02tj replied to eric@babin.com's topic in Roadside Assistance

Auto Changeover LP regulator failures

I was told when taking my air brake course that good drivers use the brakes so little and lightly they can not adjust up but when stopped apply them hard to cause the adjusters to work I have done this about every 1000 miles and when I check my slack adjuster they are right on I do not know how to move the alert as my 99 FL80 does not have them

Air Conditioner compressors locking up, killing AC unit
bm02tj replied to bubbat's topic in Systems and Appliances
When you get a new unit hook up four volt meters and two temp gauges. You need voltage at compressor, fan relay, change over valve and compressor contactor; and temp drop to confirm. Anyone of these can cause the problem.- 20 replies

bm02tj replied to bubbat's topic in Systems and Appliances
Check the running voltage at unit Check voltage at changeover valve as it defaults to heat Check voltage to contactor You may be getting just enough to close contactor but not enough to switch changeover valve completely some times which will cook compressor no flow no oil- 20 replies

led headlight Can a 2006 Monaco Headlight be changed to LED
bm02tj replied to monacoman06's topic in Type A motorhomes
The only problem with converted lights is they will not melt snow if you get into weather as they donot produce enough heat -
Just remember to leave all ball valves half open or half closed as water gets behind and can crack a valve if left open

If alignment issue you could have tires trued from a retreader then re install as they will age out before wear out so you will not miss the rubber
