  • ECHLON TELN 1402

    Anyone have an extra one of these or know where I can get one….it is for a 99 Marathon and it drives the display for the Marathon monitoring screens. Part is out of production and only sometimes can be rebuilt.. Plan B is not a very good option if I cannot find one of these.

    Buster,

    Is that the Gateway Interface Module or rather the brain box for the Techlink?

    Have you tried calling Brian at Techlon. I remember talking to him 12 years ago about our coach we had then., he said he would carry Tech Link support parts for the “true” Tech Link for 15 years. His number is 610-682-9764

    We’ll be at Desert Shores next week. Say hi to K and J for us

    see if this works

    Buster,

    Here is the manual for the Techlon from the same source as Cbus suggested: 1402

    I lost my screens and after finding the computer in the overhead of the H, I found the video plug had vibrated out and plugging back in solved the problem. Mine has been upgraded to a different computer, but I still haven’t learned enough to completely understand the system and various components.

    Please keep us informed and I would give Steve a call at California Coach, he may have some suggestions.

    Tom, your 02 uses another driver to display the info on a screen in the cockpit? My display flickers from time to time but have not looked for a techlon box. I did add a fan to my pc that runs techlink as it lives under the bed and gets hot, that solved the problems off it crashing and having to reboot.

    Would like to know how to clean up the graphic display tho’….I too susoected a loose cable, but havent found one yet.

    Brian and I have spoken. Naturally the “brick” is behing the new hd tv. I will try to reset it a few ways before I send the 1402 to Brian. He is capable of rebuilding if the problem is not a particular board.that was single sourced with a 386 chip. That company is out of business and this repair goes from simple to a Paln B… an all new dedicated computer.
