All of the RVs I owned the co detector turned off the propane if it sense a leak. Something to think about.
-
There is an oil pressure line connected to the air compressor. Sometimes it is run between the engine block and the compressor and it could be that line leaking instead.

I had the shaft break in half on bearing coupler and made the same noise. In my case was replace the bearing assembly with it's two brackets about $90 part. I was abled to push the slide in with a couple of people. Lucky that slide wasn't too big to handle.

Certain years of Cummins engine have problems with fuel control module mounted on the injection pump. The problem is that they can't handle the heat and will have the symptoms you are experiencing. Take it back to the shop that installed the injection pump for warranty.

Good news is it's electrical not mechanical. Somehow the shutoff solenoid is being fed electrical power when you shut off the ignition. You can verified this with a test light and unplugging the solenoid when engine is running. If engine shuts off at that point then try unplugging the ignition switch while engine is running. If engine shuts off when you disconnect the ignition switch, you found the problem. if not you need to take it to a chassis shop.

Winter Routing Columbia, SC- Coeur d'Alene, ID
huffypuff replied to Tohopko's question in Destinations/Attractions
Mid December is a risk for snow and I don't know how you will avoids passes. May not necessarily snow that time of year but there is a way to travel during that time. If you are coming up to a pass that has snow, stop before and check the local radio or TV for condition. Sometimes best to camp for the night and wait til cleared usually mid-afternoon the next day to be safe. Good luck! -
We stayed at Indian Waters on Jefferson Street. Very nice and clean with lots of room for large rigs.

Norcold 1200 Refrigerator Failure
huffypuff replied to carlpeterson's topic in Systems and Appliances
It's a safety device so you don't want to leave it bypass. If it doesn't reset with strong magnet the board is defective if not the cooling unit. Have it looked at soon.. -
The first word that come to my mind is rent. There are dealers that rent and one of them is Camping World. Welcome to America!

Norcold 1200 Refrigerator Failure
huffypuff replied to carlpeterson's topic in Systems and Appliances
Hold a strong magnet to the right of the light on the bypass box for about 5 seconds. You will hear a click and the bypass box will reboot. If all is well the light will go out and the controls will be working again. -
I wanted it for the Walmart listing and the big rig campgrounds.

I just signed up for roadside assistance and was going to order the FMCA Road Atlas & Travel Guide, 50th Anniversary Edition. The person told me it wasn't available until December 15, 2013. I cancel the atlas because I will be on the road by then. Now I see here that it's in stock. I wouldn't expect it would take 2 1/2 months to ship. How could it be in stock or am I missing something?

Base Plate for a Toyota MR2 Spyder
huffypuff replied to custom1's topic in Toads-Towed Behind Motorhome
I been looking for awhile for use baseplate for 2006 Jeep Liberty for a good while now. Also for Roadmaster tow bar setup. Looks like we have to give up and buy new. -
This is how to weld terminals on 0000 AWG battery cable. You can also use a small torch for the heat and I prefer heat shrink warp for the joints when done. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7vNQki7UgQ

Your vehicle is listed OK to tow but may need an dealer-installed neutral Tow Kit.

Bad point is I got my nice used coach because the former owner lost it to the bank. Low miles on it but lots of fixing to do.
-
What was the part numbers for them wiper arms. Not only would I like local blades to use but like to have shorter blades so not to drag as much as 28 - 32 inch blades.

I had that refrigerator trip on my Holiday while I was on my Alaska trip. Happen in a enclosed RV wash up in Fort Nelson, BC. I had to call back to the dealer to learn how to reset it and was in TOK, Alaska before I bypass the entire box about 24 hours later. Lucky no harm done, since reset by magnet had no problem since. Thanks for the hints, I will check my slides for mine had those gutters.
-
Rich I know it shorted and had to stop because the fuse is also on the driver side shade. I'm not an electrical guy but I can try to slap the back of the hand of the offending person and see how far that will get me.

101 is 2 lane scenery route and I-5 is interstate highway with many lanes. 101 is a long way around and will take you all day just to drive from OR to Olympia, WA city. If you have the time go the long slow route, if you need to move quick then take I-5.
-
My coach has two passenger shade switch. One for the passenger and one for the driver. You should see what happens when the driver pushes the switch for down and the passenger pushes for the shade to go up. Nobody wins but I have to make a stop and change the fuse.

I use a battery post type terminal puller. Works great.

On mine the wiper arms coming through the fiberglass allowed to much flex and allow wiper to run off on driver side and get stuck. The fix was to add large fender washer on both side of the threaded shaft on both side inside and out (4 washers) and tighten the nut down. You can spray paint them to match the body. I figured this out after a burnt wiper motor from it getting stuck.

I copy this from the 3000 MH and 4000 MH owners manual. HIGH FLUID TEMPERATURE The transmission is considered to be overheated when any of the following temperatures are exceeded: Sump fluid 121˚C (250˚F) Fluid to cooler 149˚C (300˚F) Retarder out fluid 165˚C (330˚F) If the sump fluid temperature reaches 128°C (262°F) the ECU will inhibit operation in the higher ranges If the transmission overheats during normal operations, check the fluid level in the transmission. (Refer to the Fluid Check Procedures as described in the CARE AND MAINTENANCE section starting on Page 28 of this handbook.) If the engine temperature gauge indicates a high temperature, the transmission is probably overheated. Stop the vehicle and check the cooling system. If it appears to be functioning properly, run the engine at 1200–1500 rpm with the transmission in N (Neutral). This should reduce the transmission and engine temperatures to normal operating levels in 2 or 3 minutes. If temperatures do not decrease, reduce the engine rpm. If the engine temperature indicates a high temperature, an engine or radiator problem is indicated. If high temperature in either the engine or transmission persists, stop the engine and have the overheating condition investigated by maintenance personnel.
