    Those just look like standard Bosch relays. The long part number to the left that starts with J is just for the socket. I’ve usually seen the relays with the mounting tab (like your two in the middle) wired without using a socket at all, just 1/4″ female spade connectors. The relays are cheap enough to carry an assortment of spares, but you could also probably cannibalize one in a pinch from a less-critical system to get you to a parts store.

    Correction: That’s not a J, it’s a 3. That’s a fairly common socket part number, and any Bosch-style relay should fit in there.

    What Dan said. We use dental floss to cut wet glazed heavy glass shower door panels apart. It cuts right through silacone and no scratching. If the tape is too tough try mason line. It will not cut as fast but wont break.

    Dick, that’s not a button, it’s a sight window. To drain them unscrew the fitting at the bottom and let the water drain out the drain tube, then screw it closed until moisture can be viewed in the sight window again, then repeat.

    The booster looks like this Tim. Your batwing coax goes through the booster. To operate the booster, you push the little button and a red light comes on. You have one somewhere, I’m sure. I have eliminated it since not needed anymore.

    For the record, Buddy is the Campground host at ETLC and it’s a paid position. Ah, er, I meant Buddy pays Jeff for the privilege.

    Jon is correct, he and I will never be in charge of parking. We’ll explain only in person…

    That looks nice! Didn’t they come with some kind of “Durabrite” finish on them? If so, did you remove it first?

    That is a good dryer, reliable and easy and cheap to maintain. Of the three I had it was by far the easiest to service.

    The solenoid blends hot coolant with your A/C to allow the cold air temp to be adjusted as well as giving you dash heat in the winter. When that happens, you will see the Webasto light come on while you’re running the A/C allowing coolant to mix with your dash air. If that solenoid doesn’t close call the way, it affects the cold air being generated by your A/C. I had that happen years ago and had to have the solenoid replaced at Prevost. The Tech gave me the tip about shutting off the loop in the summer to assure the coldest dash air.

    So so you can tell your Campground Tech solenoids do fail and if so, you’ll be giving him your pension income to troubleshoot your dash A/C and after replacing the compressor, dryer, expansion valve and freon, your dash air still won’t be as cold as Jon’s left knee from his OTR dash vent.

    Now heading back from 6000 miles+ traveling this summer, and the tranny started doing exactly the same thing! Looking at service ticket from when they fixed it last time, it says they replaced grounds on TCU. Anyone know where the TCU is on a 2002 XLII? maybe I can do it myself. I’ve looked in engine compartment, drivers bay door etc, can’t locate it.

    Jon, if I am not mistaking the iphone has that feature now. Afer you recieve a call from an unwanted caller you can block that number from ever being able to ring your phone. It is a couple of easy key strokes.

    Replace the hole manifold you can get them from Prevost or put in what Jon and I put in with new manifolds and comp fittings, by the way that is the wrong plug for that manifold that’s why it’s hard to get out
