I just tried to move around this site ! It’s a total OMG what new owners did.

I read your message and agree with you. This is such a shame what has happened.

I have seen welding wire used for DC loads. Only thing is I THINK the casing is not as thick as marine cables.

Not really much to take a picture of. The air compressor is in the compartment behind the front bumper. The old one was sitting on 4 rubber feet and the new Calif. Air compressor just has 4 suction type feet. At this point it’s just sitting there with a somewhat longer air line than the last as we moved it to the opposite side of the compartment just ’cause it seemed to work out a bit better. Even without it sitting on those rubber feet the Thomas air compressor used it is so quite it often takes a bit of time before I realize it has come on. Since it usually only runs for about 15 seconds when it does kick in, it’s usually about to turn off by the time I realize that it’s running.

Talk about thread drift original topic balance light and wind up dumping black tanks ,

That is what I thought too Jeff, Just a thought I had as I was sealing up and torqueing the bolts. I could take my cover and drill and tap it for a fitting to let the oil flow again if needed, I left the braided line there and plugged the end just in case. I will take a couple more pictures today before i close the hole up. Reach out anytime.

Thanks Jon. The tires are manufactured by Dunlap and we are the original purchaser. I am very attentive to the tires air pressure and check them at the start of every day and frequently through out the day. None of our tires have EVER been run low. Of that I am sure.

Thankfully, I had watched this video several times since it was first posted. Today it likely saved our lives. This morning while traveling on I-95 (on a clear and dry road surface) at 60 mph and in the right lane, our 6 year old curb side steer tire experienced a catastrophic “blow out”. The tire had been visually inspected 3 hours earlier, with air pressure (110 psi) verified. I followed the instructions in the video, maintained control of the coach, and was able to bring it to rest just off of the shoulder of the highway. Crisis avoided. What I learned from this experience is as follows: I am 100% certain that had we been going faster than 60mph, (or had the cruise control on) or had I not had a very firm grip on the wheel at the time, I likely would not have been able to control the coach and would have gone off the shoulder of the road. Here is a couple of pictures. I will try to figure out how to post the dash cam video after a couple drinks.

Oh no, so sorry to hear. Buddy was a lot fun with his humor

Assuming you are talking about your 2 12V engine battery banks providing 12V and 24V, one should not be 15V (ever) and the other 13.4. Both banks should read the same and 15V is too high.
As to the antifreeze, my ’88 had a cock valve on the tank. If you cracked it open and fluid came out it was full. If not, leave it cracked and keep adding fluid until it starts to run out.

Al,
As long as you have Internet/WiFi in your bus, there are a bunch of devices with app’s that you can monitor your coach remotely. They are made specifically for real time temps and power, some have alerts via your smart phone, just what you need for pets. The AGS systems are usually pretty good if set up properly. I check mine at home in the driveway to make sure it works. Load it up and see what happens.
I assume your Featherlite runs everything through the inverters, so if A/C’s are running and power is lost, it won’t take long to get to the AGS start voltage. If they’re roof airs and temporarily lost during the transfer switch change, they’ll probably start back up with no problem.
