The only app I know of for a RV is Copilot. There are several online planners but I don't use them.

I believe it is in the freightliner manual for the dash display

Call Freightliner and give them your VIN . . . They'll tell you where it is and what the part # is.

I have never been to a campground that asks for registration to verify year. Mine is a 2010 and have never been questioned. When someone asks the year when making a reservation I tell them it is newer than that.

One adapter and here is another one Adapter
-
That is their new NORM . . . No one ever calls back . . . They all hide behind voicemail . . . . Worst thing ever invented. I'm still waiting for a call back from 9 months ago about a question I had with Tech Connect . . . No one ever responded. But boy do they want your $$$ at renewal time. By the way I got one of these Jump Box

No apology needed I was just referring to OBD generically. https://www.amazon.com/BlueFire-Bluetooth-Adapter-Motorhomes-Supports/dp/B01CS1HUXI/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2OHU814ENNDHO&dchild=1&keywords=bluefire+for+motorhomes&qid=1629147650&sprefix=bluefire%2Caps%2C172&sr=8-1 Get the 6 pin to 9 pin adapter cable to go with it.

You can get a Blue Fire adapter to plug into your OBD connector and run an app on a cell phone or tablet to tell you what is going on. I had an issue with my Cummins ISL and it told me what was wrong. My crankcase pressure was high due to my crankcase preacher filter needing to be replaced. You can purchase the adapter on amazon.

Sounds like the turbo waste gate is sticking open or possibly the turbo itself is going bad. Maybe a leak in one of the turbo lines. There have been people in other forums with issues with turbo hoses popping off and losing power

Well maybe us 2 members and more should drop our membership because of Herman Mullins.

I think that to get a bath and a half model with a king bed you will need to go to a 42' tag axle. We looked for a 39 or 40' with a bath and a half and didn't find much that suited our needs even though there are only a few out there. I could be wrong.

That is exactly what my son said. He is a mechanic at Cat for 25 years. He said even though it is rare it does happen.

Sounds like a bad head or head gasket causing blow by and water getting into cylinder.
-
There is also a module that controls the air gauges that goes bad.I remember reading about it on several forum threads.

Depends on the equipment. If it is a Travellr it can be but you need to buy a conversion kit.. If it is an older dome unit they have dip switches inside to make it go from direct to dish.

So why don't you go traveling and make an appointment with the factory in Red Bay and enjoy the ride there.

It has worked for us everywhere we have been. We went from Texas to Mass and Florida. We use it for TV streaming and have since cancelled Dish TV and use nothing but Youtube TV. Works fantastic!!!

One real nice campground is Village Greene in Brimfield. That is where we stay for several months before we purchased a home in Mass.

Going to Yuma in the summer is like going to Alaska in the Winter . . . WHY??

We use my rv mail out of Florida. Recommended by passport America. very inexpensive and great service. We were with America's Mailbox out of SD but they were always bombarding us with emails we didn't do this right. This piece is being returned for this or that and they always wanted $$$.

What you need to do is bypass the low pressure cutoff to get the refrigerant cycling through the system then charge it with it running. Icing is generally low R134 -
2000 Monaco Diplomat suddenly in neutral
sstgermain replied to Simon3766's topic in Type A motorhomes
From a Google search: "The Allison shift controls have what we call "Shift inhibits", These are circumstances when the transmission ECU prevents the transmission from going into gear to prevent damage. The most common one is the engine RPM is to high and we inhibit range to prevent shock loading the transmission when it goes into gear. So your transmission is working as designed, anything over 900 RPM can cause the inhibit. The way to tell when this is happening is the keypad digit will flash." For sure too high idle and too low battery voltage will prevent proper transmission operation. -
