    Richard, it’s a PITA tracing wires across multiple files on a computer screen. I can’t see a common failure point with everything that quit at the same time. You might want to first check the circuit breakers inside the passenger’s side engine door on the far right side. These control several things each, but likely would control more than what you have not working.

    I am actually picking up the coach in Nashville sometime in late September…..Brandon is bringing it there once all the maintenance is done. I sure can understand what Brian is going thru. Spending that kind of cash can make your stomach turn especially when buying a used coach. I watched 4 Royale coaches get sold in the last 3-4 months and I’ve tried to talk to the new owners as to “why” they chose Royale. Seems like they all had the same answer….simplicity of the systems and ease of maintenance. For us, we wanted to keep the warmth of wood in the interior, it fit our wants and needs and by the time we get done with all the maintenance items it will be right at the budget we set.

    I probably could have jumped up a year and got an ’06 Marathon but having the ability to still do the maintenance and hit the road with almost everything brought up to spec meant a lot to both the wife and I.

    Most will agree we do not run our generators enough. Look at some entertainer buses with high generator hours which I think really shows what these generators can do and they are not fuel hogs.

    I don’t see any reason to run an electric cook top or dryer just to see if the battery system will manage it.

    Careful management of electric loads on either leg is important. Taking a chance pushing the extreme limits of your inverters with the risk of destroying a perfect working system.

    Just my opinion.

    It’s nationwide, piss bombs, they’re disgusting. And remember, the rest area blacktop that you are kneeling on to look under your bus is the toilet of choice at night!

    Mine does it also and lights the Webasto light on the dash, but the Webasto wouldn’t be firing, just turning on the pump to circulate the coolant when it calls for some heat.
