I suspect the blower wire is not making contact in the end connector. Think about what you touched to make it work. Richard

The water pump doesn't blow out when using air. You'll need to remove the discharge line and run the pump. Then some water pump inlet screens need to be opened up. Richard

We spend most of the winter off grid with four 6 volt batteries from Sam's Club and 660 watts of solar. If you have easy access to your batteries, go with flooded lead acid batteries. Richard

If you have a 3 jack system, make sure the front jack has raised your MH slightly before deploying the rear jacks. This help to keep the frame from twisting, and damaging your windshields and front cap. Richard

I would suggest burying the Dicor and using Sikaflex 715 on your EPDM roof. It is a superior product @ a superior price. Sikaflex 715 With Sikaflex there is no going on the roof and looking for cracks every 6 months, like with Dicor. Sikaflex stretches with out cracking. On the sides I use DAP ALEX PLUS 40 year clear, from Home Depot. It has worked well on my old Bounder for 23 years. Richard

Wow! Who would have though that some ladders are only attached to the fiberglass? My ol antique 95 Bounder has 1" pine boards behind the fiberglass for the ladder screws. Richard

Do you have an Intellitec system? Intellitec no longer supplies parts or service. Waiter provides both. He's a good guy. If so look up Waiter at https://waiterecc.com/ Richard

If you jacks are OEM, then they are Power Gear. Both Power Gear and HWH, of your year, use Dextron III/Mercon. Make sure the jacks are fully up, remove the plug on the side, near the top and fill to the bottom of the hole. Richard

We clip our cat's nails. Richard

Our MH sits on a full service RV pad, right next to the garage. No problems with the city. Home sweet home. Most every thing on my property is aged. 1990 F150, 1995 Bounder, 1952 home. 1943 wife!

You bathroom heat is probably like mine. The furnace sits on one side of the coach and the bathroom on the other. My furnace has 4 4" ducts and the 2" bathroom duct is "T" off of one of the 4" ducts. My bathroom duct is over 12' long and has hardly no flow. When in the cold, we use a small electric heater to prewarm the bathroom before showers. Richard

Transfer switches (relays) hum when the armature and the iron core don't make full contact when in the closed position. Has nothing to do with the contacts. As far as reliability, they offer little problem. My 95 Bounder still has the OEM auto transfer switch. Richard

Bounder wet bays have been heated since the first one in 1986. You have been misinformed. Richard

Fleetwood typically only installed the two battery disconnect switches by the door/stairwell. Your best bet is to disconnect the negative battery cables from both battery banks. Some have installed a high amperage disconnect switch on both banks, for convenance. Richard

Assuming you MH has a smart charger, I would leave the batteries in the MH, disconnect switches turned on and plugged in. Check the battery water levels before storage and all should be well. Richard

There should be a relay system to get 24 volts to start and then revert back to 12 volts so the alternator can charge every thing. I suggest that system has failed. Thus 2 charged batteries and 2 dead batteries. Richard

A proper solar installation will have a switch between the panels and the controller. Richard

The basic engine, as built and tuned by International, was OK. But Ford raised the HP and stretched the head bolts. Richard

The starter relay, located in the right fender well, is a known high failure item. Turn on ignition, jump around the two big posts on the relay, and see if the starter engages. An independent Mobil service tech, might just be clever enough to help you along. Richard

If memory serves me correctly, open the slide and cut an opening on the wall behind the slide. Or something like that. Probable a HR or Monaco forum will have a spot on answer. Richard

Has it just quit working? Is the box good? If you were happy with what you had, maybe a new cooling unit will work for you. If you spend much time off grid, then a residential refrigerator will require a larger battery bank, more solar and more wiring. Richard

Please tell us what brand and model of coach you have......Do you know what brand name the AC is? Richard

Where are you located in the K.C. area? Richard

Herman, I signed up with the VA 17 years ago. Corp. America threw me on the streets when I was 60 and it's hard to get a head full of gray hair employed again. GRIN. So I operated a small RV repair service until I was 70. I needed medical help until I was qualified for Medicare and then I moved most of my needs to Medicare but the VA meds are still cheaper. Thank you for your service. Richard

Can you explain further why a Vet can't just join the VA. I am a Vet. I have no disabilities and didn't serve in a war zone. I belong to the VA and receive my meds from them. All that is required is an annual physical. Richard
