    I will not be calling you nuts.

    The word Brilliant seems to come to mind!

    It was because of all the extra things to do to flat tow other brands that we chose Dodge/Jeep. Put vehicle in neutral, apply brake pedal, push neutral button and voila the vehicle is in neutral.

    Glen,

    Like you this has been frustrating, especially since it seems we all use the site in a different fashion and things we never knew are being found by others.

    We will get through this and since Tom and I have more hours on this than anyone I can say it is getting not only easier, it is turning out to offer some benefits.

    Per,

    Mark once owned a fleet of trucks in the hundreds. I’m pretty sure he is well qualified to discuss the use of the Jake.

    Dentalguy,

    Are you on shore power, generator power, or trying to run the AC off the inverters? If I am on inverters and no shore or generator power, the salon button on the dash will light up when I push it, but no power will show on the control. In our coach, only the bedroom and galley AC will run off the inverters.

    Marathon house and chassis are not merged in anyway, other than maybe a boost or jump start. The house has it’s seperate cut-off for both 12 and 24. The H and XL cut-off’s are in different locations. I think it helps to be more specific as to model.

    You don’t reveal the converter, but assuming it is stock Prevost here is what I remember. If it is wrong I am claiming Tom told me this.

    In the rear you should have 2 five port Norgrens in front of the drive axle fender liners. On the frame between the drive and tag axles you should have a three port on each side and on the passenger side on the frame over or behind the tag should be a third three port Norgren.

    In the front steer compartment there should be a five port and a three port mounted on the rear bulkhead, and up over the steer axle should be another three port.

    So there should be a total of 3 five port Norgrens and 5 three port.

    Mikee, pull out entire switch/unit, not just the bulb? Special tool needed or just flat screwdriver?

    Supporting the bus off the ground at the drive axel is around 34 or so thousand pounds.

    My drives is rated at 22,000 and the tags at 12,000 so your 4000 pound stands don’t come close.

    At best one side drive and tag off the ground would be about 15 ro 18000 pounds to support.

    Be carefull.

    My coach is a 40 footer so yours would be different I think.
