    Fred,

    Is there a flow control adjustment on that valve?

    Fredericknk:

    I see the device that controls your step well cover in your 1st picture. It is top center.
    I try to label everything. Here are pictures of mine, Liberty #331.

    Governor is bad?

    My aux pressure has to get below 90 psi before the engine compressor pumps her back up?

    April 25, 2022 at 12:15 pm in reply to: Trying to figure out why AC warning light is on

    Don, Ahh now I think I get it. So even though it is normal open, in the system under working pressure it should be closed making the path for the power. The diagram showing normal open does not mean under normal operating condition but open if not in the right pressure range? So in essence, given that it is open now (with system charged) it would indicate a bad switch?

    If I have that right, maybe it is as simple as swapping the low pressure switch. Seems like that is an easy thing to do and give it a try. Make sense?

    Thanks – I feel better I might be getting closer to the answer

    I have been searching around the internet today regarding this issue, and a lot of folks are complaining about their water heater element, or an element as the culprit to popping the Pole GFCI.

    Thanks Joel. I had no idea that kind of damage could come from a blow out. I assumed only the fenders were at risk.

    March 21, 2022 at 7:25 am in reply to: Famous Previos owners.

    At an RV rally, working as a vendor, we were parked with a couple that proudly displayed a big sign in the Prevost front window “Wille Nelson’s former tour bus”. I took a picture and sent a note to Willie’s tour manager who we were working with along with a note saying, In case you wondered what happened to your old coach!” The tour manager wrote back that they had never owned Prevost’s back then as the preferred the ride of an Eagle (little to no side to side sway).

    I think I crushed the guy when I gave him the info but he had bought it at a legitimate car auction house and thought he needed to know he had been scammed.

    I connected my Chassis battery charger directly to my Chassis batteries. I used the engine Block heater circuit to turn mine on and off via the switch on the dash.

    January 17, 2022 at 2:37 pm in reply to: Koni shocks advantage

    I had Koni’s for awhile (front only) and didn’t find a significant difference.

    My real heartburn is that one failed; the shaft itself snapped clean…never saw a shock do that before. I speculate something inside the shock dislocated when the shock was extended and the shaft snapped when the shock tried to compress.

    Koni wanted me to pay to ship the shock to them to determine IF it was a warranted failure. I tossed both halves in the dumpster.

    Great point Jon! You’d think most of these guys put enough in there already!

    Will we have to provide a stool sample to enter California?

    December 11, 2021 at 12:37 pm in reply to: LED blinker problems?

    I think that depends on how the flasher is made. Back in the old days flashers used a bi-metal strip through which current to the light passed. As current heated up the metal which offered some resistance it bent and opened the circuit. Once the circuit was open, it cooled, returned to the original shape completing the circuit and started the cycle all over again. That type of flasher wouldn’t work if a bulb burned out because the current flow was not enough to heat up the bi-metal due to the design.

    Later flashers worked regardless of if the bulbs were all working or not.

    Now with so many electronic circuits we use things like multiplex to control a lot. For our coaches the multiplex system would see the use of LED lights with their low current draw to be a problem, such as a burned out bulb.

    So the answer is what kind of flasher is being used?

    Bill, you might check your slide cylinder over your steps. Any pocket door cylinders. And you might turn valve in compartment under driver sest that shuts off chassis air from house system to help isolate. Also, if like ours, the auxiliary tank had pin holes on the underside from rust caused from moisture over the years we had to replaced.

    I found A professional quality transporter with CDL license real pro and owns his own prevost marathon. 20 years experience I’ll continue to look for back of drivers like him. Thanks for your help
