Thats why Mr. Marsh’s consierge service is so valuable. He answers your calls 24/7, helps you trouble shoot problems. I did not mean to give the wrong impression that one day of training is enough I was just trying to say how much he helped us out.

When I was at Jeff’s last November, he was working on this upgrade for Marathons … guess he has cracked the Tech Link Marathon code.

Dick, I’m not sure of the thickness, but I have a bunch of it. email me and I will send you some. Just one of those things that we collected over the years thinking that we might find a use for it.

[Bill]

Really cool stuff, but talk about an O.D. load, they better be looking real hard at the bridge heights.

You will find when you get wiring diagram from Prevost there will be many extra wires already run from box to box. There are functions not used on your coach that = unused circuits. Also will be many extra breakers and relays vacant. Nice thing about this if a active breaker or relay fails on road you can pull/exchange one of these and continue on your way or a mechanic with this knowledge/wiring diagram can. The extra wires can be wsed for new circuits or to replace a bad wire. Bob

Dick there was a recall on some of the early toe kick heaters around your year of coach

I talked about it but not many gave it much thought but if you look at HVAC about Dec 13 of 2013 you will see my post so

It’s bullshit if anybody tells you they are ok until you know what kind you have I replaced all mine in the older coaches with the new ones. There was a big lawsuit over some of those toe kick heaters. ,

Read my post on them it tells you which ones are no good mostly early models , I think up to about 2000 or so

Tom, When I reset my inverters, the setting on LBCO & LBCI were set according to the specs in this article. But they are different than the ones you provided, right? Or am I reading this wrong?

[Bill]

I believe that is the same code mine was throwing when I went to look at in in March of 2008. The salesman told me, “Don’t worry about that, it is nothing.” He said that about 50 items but this one did worry me. I called two entertainer bus friends and they said I should insist on having it checked out.

I made resolving of that code part of the deal. The Allison guy came and “flashed” the memory on the computer. It made it to about 90% and then failed. The only option was replacement at that point as Tom pointed out. The salesman was not happy at all. After salesman stomped out the Allison guy told me that it may have never presented a problem but replacing it was costly.

They did replace it.

Bumped this up as it seemed compatible with current headlight discussion.

I too investigated a Montana LLC. Bennett told me since I lived in Illinos, they did not recommend I do any business with them. He said, “Illinois is looking for people like you to bust” I took the advise and put the bus in a properties corp I already had. Wrote 50% off last year and will do the rest over the next 5 years. The advantage to me far out I personally don’t believe it is worth the risk. In Illinois anyway..
