Yes, I have heard of this before, but it was ALL Motorhomes every place I have worked. It was done due to the complexity of more items being in the engine bay, more difficultly in determining and obtaining parts, different wiring diagrams (often there was no wiring diagram and several systems were tied into the chassis) several manufactures overlapping and dealing with people hanging out while it was being worked on.

Eric, fuel rail pressure code has nothing to do with a loose fuel cap. Gasoline engines monitor fuel tank pressure for evaporative emissions, diesels do not. Most times fuel rail pressure faults are from clogged fuel filters or a sticking fuel return check valve. Other areas could be a faulty fuel injection pump, fuel leak (internal or external) or fuel injectors. Could it have been a glitch, absolutely, should it come back on have it looked at ASAP. I agree, that is a handy tool to have!

Sky2kid, Welcome to the FMCA forums! Do you have any pictures left vs right side?

Let us know what they find.

great minds think alike! I was thinking that or the tow truck driver dropped it and dented the tube. I am guessing you didn't observe this vibration between the repair shop and tire shop or were the conditions not correct to make it happen?

Would you happen to know if it was unbolted at each end when removed or slid off of the splines on one end? Sounds like the drive shaft is out of phase. JUST make certain you let the current shop know the full timeline of events. It could speed up their diagnosis which will save you $$

Neat information. That train is a beast! Anyone in the Lancaster PA area might want to add this to your list of things to do. This place has always fascinated me. A lot of history to look at in the museum. About 15 minutes from home. https://rrmuseumpa.org/ https://www.strasburgrailroad.com/

Sounds like you have some tire shopping to do VERY soon. Let us know what you decide on and how it all works out.

sgtjoe, can your refrigerator run on the MSW inverter? I installed a GE 15.5 cuft residential unit and per GE it’s fine on MSW. Battery bank size will be the other determining factor.

Blue is the power line to the trailer brakes, red is typically the ignition feed. The Green is throwing me off, that's a new one... Assuming this is an trailer electric brake controller? Is there a model number associated with the unit? ESSBC and neither is EPCO for a manufacture isn't coming up on a quick web search.

Usually its on the right side of the steering column, often they are taped up out of sight to another wiring harness.

I have almost the same device (older version, same manufacture) plugged into an outlet inside. It has a very loud annoying alarm if the voltage dips or rises within a specified threshold. Its actually more sensitive than my TRC or Progressive EMS which was a huge benefit. While it will not shut you off, when it alarms you know to dig deeper into the problem before it becomes a bigger problem. Where the EMS comes in hand is when you are not there and it will automatically shut off the coach power or if something ugly happens for the most part you are protected. I believe a true power surge from a storm it wouldn't help much. Voltage would cross it so fast the coach would get whacked. I unplug during those and run off of battery or generator.

Bill, my C had 176" in the door jamb (ford decal) but measured 201". Coachmen spliced the frame between the axles. I also had frame extensions after the rear axle which were 8' long. Both caused my tow rating to drop from the original chassis recommendation of 7500 lbs down to 2500 lbs. The cross members after axle were flimsy, I guess to keep the weight down which I believe was the main cause for the towing reduction. I had 11' 5" total length behind the rear axle, it got interesting when turning corners, you really had to pay attention.

YUP, we talk often. Usually via text.

Sideboomer, I’d give these folks a call; https://www.sttc.com/

That’s a tough one to answer. 1st would be determine what manufacturer made the slide system.

Mic, Welcome to the FMCA Forums! sounds like they are connected via the same hydraulic system. Do they hear the pump running when depressing any of the buttons for the jacks or slides?

Looking good Ray! I watched the video and i will most likely give this a run next season. Setting up my scaffold and waxing the coach with an orbital buffer was getting old

Mike, I am going to make your head spin more. I have no idea the "probes" they are speaking of however all of our Freightliner trucks at work with the ISB came from Freightliner with RED Extended life coolant and have for the last 5 years. They were spec'd that way, they also came with this sticker on the coolant reservoir (photo'd below). This goes back to what you have already experienced, if you call back you will most likely get a different answer. I converted out 2002 Cummins over to Nitrate free coolant last year so I didn't have to fuss with checking it. If you ask the Cummins dealer you will most likely have that as an option.

Well I hope nothing was under the fire pit! it was a relaxing weekend, trick or treat at the campground was enjoyable as always. Drove home in what feels like the beginning of monsoon season in PA

380 and 9mm best as I can tell. There is so much crust on them I couldn’t read it. They were fired! I looked for that first. really makes you wonder what that story is?

Well they say there is a first for everything, this is definitely a first for me! These are next to the fire pit. Of course the name of the campground is Artillery Ridge

Correct! The hardest part is if and I say IF you need to alter the valve stem for clearance. The kit does come with a tool to do so and instructions so most truck shops should be able to handle this. I do NOT recommend a tire shop unless you know they can handle it. Sounds off but the tire tech skill set has significantly dropped off in the last few years. I recently watched one attempt to install a valve stem extension for over 1/2 hour, when the hammer came out I had to walk over! We have them all the way around our coach.

NO, I did replace ours with dual recliners from this company; https://shop4seats.com/
