Im glad there was no major damage. No details of what happened have been provided but I assume it was a momentary lapse in concentration. Very easy to do. So now we have Dump Truck and Dozer Jon.

Dan: I have an inoperative ABS system. I have the ABS light on all the time. I’ve been told by Jeff and Prevost-Jacksonville that the something is wrong with the sensor(s) which are apparently buried in the rear axle. Estimate to fix was $3,500 so I’ve left it as is. Patina? We have a 1998 chassis. I’m told the later model chassis have ABS system where the maintenance/fix of the sensors is much easier to get at and hence the labor bill is lower.
I don’t think I have ABS on the front axle, just rear. I could lock up the front tires on the wet snow. I don’t know what was going on in back, couldn’t feel it. Given the wheelbase of the coach, if the drive axle moved over a foot I don’t know if I could sense it.

The lower tank is leaking and is corroded.
I plan to take the new radiator to a radiator shop along with the old one and have them compare the two. It is possible that I might take the top tank off of the new one and have a new neck installed while closing the unused neck. Then it would work.
The cost of doing so would be compared to the cost of having to build a new frame in the wall “set back” so that a hose could be installed with the new one as it is.
Working on it.
Thank you,

Take a look at the charger instructions or call the company, I used to use the older Guest chargers and combined the two 12’s for 24 volt charging with no problem. Not sure with newer models, here’s an example of splitting the two.

Tim,
The book is the one supplied by Marathon for our coach, and the Prevost book for the chassis gives the same pressures. Since you are running 365s on steer and tag, you should be in good shape running the pressures you stated.

A few questions:
1. If we register on PC, does that take care of securing a site at River Landing or do we have to call and individually reserve a site?
2. Is there a Rally rate?
3. Who do we pay the $100 to, and does that fee go towards the site or some other cost?

Dick,
There are no floor drains so there is not a way to drain the water. This building was some type of manufacturing or shipping business years and years ago. They have several built-in tractor-trailer loading docks.
Last year when I did use the air, the dripping did slow down but not by a whole lot. Some people do use their air units and it’s a big watery mess. The owner’s prefer that you don’t use the air unit’s but don’t press it. And I would if it was really hot. Mid 80’s inside the coach is not bad.

Except for heat and sun damage, Austin is not going to expose the coach to the potential for mold and mildew or freezing. You cannot think for a minute that just because it was outside in Austin it is OK to be outside where you live.
Storing a coach is a real pain and if not done correctly can have a bad outcome. A lot of people leave the north in the fall and come back in the spring. Or they put the coach where there is power. A last resort is draining and the use of RV antifreeze because it is a big project to do it right and just as big a project to undo it. This is where your knowledge of your specific coach and your specific systems and layouts come into play because nobody can do more than generalize until they know your coach.

If you are paranoid about brakes or bearings locking up, stop after 20 miles and touch the hubs. I do that now after maintenance or if the coach has not been used for several weeks. Caught one over-greased slack adjuster last year.

Andy,
In response to your suggestion about SSL, is this not showing on your computer?

Doug,
Is it retaining username and password at login?

Dan and Judy,
I guessed I missed the post about your coach being totaled out. Sorry to hear.
If you are looking for a Liberty, whether you get the manual dispenser or auto-drone, you will love it!

Safe travels,
Mark

I’m not sure why yours is not stored, but mine was stored immediately.

Suppression diode for the inductor (coil) in the solenoid. You’ll want to keep it, unless you can verify that the new solenoid has one built in.
