Jerry, Gayle
Had the same problem with control board- repaired, plus had bad main stage compressor-replaced @ $1000k. Been working fine for two years. Also added freon connectors on top of unit to charge both units if needed. Not much to this RVAC once it`s outside the bus and cover removed.. Contemplated the coleman retrofit, went the fix it route.

Wow Tom… how do you close a thread ?? I thought I checked the box to be informed of a reply and then “post”. hmmm… thanks for catching it and fixing it. Gettin’ old sucks !!
I do have the extra power cord and plugged it in on the other side thank goodness.
Jeff emailed me about a possible plug and I will check that out tomorrow.
Why did you not use your cord reel Tom?
Cheers, Diane

I have one that the exact same thing Karl, wound around and now the close opens and the open closes. Mine don’t have string, so I’m going to remove it and correct on the work bench with power then place it back.

Got the coach today and will stay at Marathon until Tuesday morning, just in case we discover a surprise. So far it’s flawless. That said, I’d give it away in a heartbeat if I could have my two boys back in its place.
Sandy and I are shuffling our plans to try our best to get to OKC (to show off the new purchase, of course). 🙂

What work did this coach need? I spoke to Marathon about this coach two weeks ago and was told it was in great shape, and came with a 6-month warranty. I even found a bank willing to finance this coach. We haven’t moved on it becausethe sale of our house hasn’t closed yet. You have me wondering what the closing delay has saved us from?

I have double clamped my hoses on the pipe sections to and from the CAC.
If I were to guess the hose most likely to blow off is the one from the turbo to the CAC.

I flushed and changed my coolant last November. It is pretty straightforward and the maintenane manual describes the process well. If you have OTR, don’t forget to clean the stainless steel coolant filter in the evaporator bay. Mine looked like it had never been cleaned.
The engine is self-bleeding and the house system (OTR) has bleeding valves on the OTR heat exchanger and the driver’s heat exchanger. Just keep those open until no more air escapes.
Good luck,
Gerald

Beer has that impact on work efficiency.

Thanks for the reply. I don’t know where to find the “industrial switch in the overhead”?

Andy, the coach is an ’09 Parliament XL11 with 37k mi. It’s been a sitter for at least 18mos(not good). Probably worth 7 to 750k. Where it has been sitting is even worse.

Hey LED guru’s….I am going to make the change on the top markers front and back, and the side marker turn signals soon ….. If I use the same lens covers about how much would I be saving? I think it was Charles that said they clean up nicely with polish.
