  1. Curious, did it blow out or Rot out? That's an awful high amount of road salt build up on the body, that stuff on the roadways today is very harmful to metals. I would ask the shop for a root cause.
  2. 2nd Bill's recommendation above. Call Source, they will be able to answer your question regarding the fluid change and cooler availability. I changed ours over to full synthetic but ours is a few years older and I know quite a bit was changed between 02 and 05.
  3. We turn ours on and off as needed while on the road, I worry a pipe will break and flood the coach, or basement. We got into a habit of this when our washer/dryer would fill up while driving, every bump the water valve would add more water until it was leaking out of the unit, we didn't know there was a problem until the toilet flushed dry. I couldn't figure out where all the water went, here it all went into the washer/dryer and the bedroom carpet was wet . That unit was removed and tossed into the trash but the potential of a problem still exists with all of the other stuff. I figured if something broke again I might not know it, until the coach is water logged.
  4. Eddie, I love the finished product, especially the top of the stair trim! NICE WORK!!
  5. CAT 2316? You mean 3126? I have heard of injector tips coming off and falling into a cylinder before, happens but rare. I can't recall it destroying the engine, reused the head on one, just replaced that piston, still have that piston in the garage as a paper weight . Right next to the boat prop DW wiped out on a sand bar . No oil additive will stop that from happening.
  6. The only conclusion I have is you walk past one no matter which way you go. The problem is when you get in there is when you remember you forgot to switch the pump on. I figured after 4 years if we didn't learn by now we weren't going to. That room needed some TLC anyway, wallpaper border was starting to peel and I'm going to refinish the wood near the toilet. The tile backsplash add on (another post) it will be refreshed.
  7. Like a bank vault . As I said before they don't make them like the use to If the fluid film doesn't work this product is amazing, it's not just a rusty bolt penetrating oil, it actually bonds into the pores of the metals. http://www.pro1energy.com/products/rig-maintenance/xpl-101-penetrating-lubricant/
  8. Carl and Linda are in for a treat this June . I'll have him laughing so much he'll pop capillaries
  9. Fluid film is a good recommendation, too bad you are so far away, I have a can in my office at work, I'd give it to you. Herman, not sure...came that way and it works...what's yours look like?
  10. Herman, glad to know I'm not the only one, I was starting to think this coach was miss built. Haha, I get the same from my DW, mine knocks on the windows and talks like I can understand, so I move my mouth with no sound until she gets mad and opens the window
  11. Richard, I think you miss understood, here are two photos. My door jamb is sealed from the elements then there is another gasket to seal it from the interior. Perhaps you could retrofit something?
  12. Billy, those in the photo look like the house solenoid and something else. My gas coach had two also, one was for the salesman switch in the doorway don't remember what the other one was for.... Ford always are round just like the photo, (unless replaced by someone) to be sure follow the battery cable on the starter up, it will be at the end of it. Since it was an incomplete chassis when Tiffin got it who knows where it ended up. Glad to help
  13. BILLYBAUDOIN, Welcome to the FMCA forums! How about this solenoid/relay? Was this replaced? The small terminal is from the ignition switch, sending power to starter (large cable lead). If you can duplicate it its easy to test with a 12v test light or volt meter.
  14. https://www.steelerubber.com/drip-rails Scroll through their catalogue, maybe something will pop out to seal the jamb.
  15. Carl, I was just thinking the same thing, maybe a small channel above the door opening to move the water flow, or an overlapping door seal so when the door is closed it keeps the jamb dry? We have about an 1/8" rubber flap that is attached to the door, when its closed it covers the jamb.
  16. It wouldn't work on Apple, which is odd as it was uploaded from an I-phone, works great on a PC.
  17. Forgot about that one, I also have one in the wet bay and the main panel with the genset controls, which come to think of it doesn't have a problem either, just the one's on the hall sink circuit. It didn't make sense to have switches near every faucet except one which happened to be across from the toilet, of all places that is where one needed to be.
  18. Herman, do you have a switch in the lavatory area on a Dynasty?
  19. Brett, from the wiring diagram below and the photo above of my coach it looks like the same controller in your link. From the schematic below I believe I have a ground problem. Ill Call Monaco today and see where the ground is located for this specific portion of the circuit, check it and clean it.
  20. Digging through an old photo I believe I located the water pump controller on the right side of the photo
  21. Herman, just dawned on me...those lights breathe, and a few other stuff while changing colors or you can select one color. Same manufacturer Rick used for his underglow. Not sure if the video loaded, since I'm on mobile I can't tell.
  22. Once I add the upper row against the LED strip it should transfer some of that through the tiles, plus there's no grout yet either. You ever want to tackle something that makes you wish you hadn't, grab a wire fish and pull wiring through an RV . The water pump was a huge pain, the lighting was fairly simple since the wiring runs the coach floor tunnel against the right wall along with Aqua Hot plumbing and electrical. I grabbed my 12v source from the old refrigerator circuit which is on the opposite side of the bathroom sink wall, just beyond the pocket door on the front side, the other sink is directly behind the toilet. If I had to cross sides of the coach I wouldn't have done it.
  23. Installed lighting and some tiles this weekend IMG_4242.MOV
  24. Thanks guys! Once I pull the coach from its winter home I will dig into this deeper. It's too close to the garage to open bay doors while in hibernation.
