Andre,
Paycheck. What is that?
-
Tom is showing a leak in the side panel, but there is no end to things you can check using this method.
If you have a pesky leak on the roof you will find it this way. If your door is making wind noise as you go down the road squirting soapy water at the door seal area while someone inside the coach engages the air door lock will identify the area that is creating the wind noise.
You can use this to verify a newly replaced windshield will not leak.
Unfortunately it won’t help you find leaks in the bays due to a bad door gasket.

Thanks, Jon.
Not much info out there. Guess I’ll start with Mararthon and/or Liberty.

MM .saw your report on the Marathon, but no mention of test drive.

Guilty
as charged, but I was the one driving the piece of crap Chevy rental
car fighting with the morons on I-75 while Mr. Perfect happened to
wake up long enough to offer his help at making a post. This was a
monumental event, as he pulled out his laptop and then placed his
Verizon Mi-Fi on the dash all the while smirking at his technological
expertise. He then sneezed, causing a subsequent big fart, I hit the
gas causing his Mi-Fi to fall to the floor at which time he gives the
guy in front of us the bird.It’s
no wonder I’m off a little. This is only day 2 of 4 and still another
1000 miles to go, so bare with me. -
Corey (I’m guessing), you can see by some of the responses above who has indicated they will be there, and I suspect Tom and I will be knocking on doors inviting folks when we get a chance. We need to have the same information so we can be sure there is enough to go around.
Although it would be nice if all owners were reading this, the chances are a lot of the folks at Pelican are not necessarily on the forum so we have to give personal invites.
Bringing the new coach?

Bill,
I am not trying to defend Prevost, but it does need to be pointed out that our coaches have 4 service providers and we as owners need to understand we are best served by using the appropriate service for our coach.
Prevost historically has serviced the chassis which includes the structure, electrical system, pneumatic system and the engine radiator. Detroit Diesel should be the primary service provider for the engine and DDEC. Allison is the primary for the transmission, and the converter or a service facility that services the conversion part of the coach handles the “house”.
I don’t think Prevost is trying to blow you off or is failing to help you. I think you are dealing with a problem that is far outside their area of expertise.
The exception to the above is that I believe Prevost will have more of an active role in servicing the Volvo engine because it is “theirs”, but even that might be limited to routine maintenance and an engine swap.
I think the advice offered here was all good, and if I were in your shoes I would personally be doing everything I personally could do since the “professionals” have failed. I would be seeking someone with a DDEC I that has everything working and I would start swapping parts until I found what restores power. I would create a temporary wire harness that I could hang externally for test purposes just to rule out the harness as a source of the problem. Nothing should be overlooked including bad grounds, bad pins, plus everything else mentioned above.

I did notice the very nice set of headlights.

Glad it turned out to be an easy fix….

Bill, if you want to give me a call, it’s a little easier to discribe on the phone, 714-342-8588.

If you had traps being sucked dry the chances are very likely you had inadequate venting or the vents used had blockage. You cannot siphon the contents from a trap unless that is the only source for air to enter the tank.

Do you think 12′ is long enough ? I figured most of the work is either the front or back of the coach. Did you build the walls of the pit with block and fill them or form and pour them ?
