    “Sweetie. Isn’t there a game on?”. That’s when I go outside and watch the TV. I can’t cook and like to eat.

    July 25, 2019 at 9:06 am in reply to: A House For Odie

    Odie is loving her house. She was recently able to be home for about 10 days while we had the tent up about 30 minutes away.

    We are gone again for a whirlwind work trip to the Boston area and she is on the bus with us. I took this picture as I was backing out of the drive Wednesday morning.

    The house is really working out great for our daughter. She loves the accessibility of it, but still loves to climb on the bus and get in her bunk. Jeff says that once Odie goes home for good I am finished anyway and he might be right. 😩

    I pulled next door to hook up the car. I think the bus looks cool with a steeple on top, but it would be painful with all these low bridges in the northeast.

    Coach 1070. Had the same issue last month. Replacing the Norgren Tom mentioned resolved the issue. Easy fix at Jeff’s. About 20 minutes if you have the part.

    So is he able to work around not having the code’s from Marathon? Or is he starting over with installing a new Crestron program….if so does he give you the codes for future repairs?

    Your XL2 will not match Hector’s diagram. Yours has IFS and as such it is going to have “ping” tanks and instead of a 5 port Norgren controlling the steer axle suspension I think you are going to have a variation that uses 2 3 port Norgrens.

    I have not looked at the Prevost pneumatic diagram, I am just making an educated guess.

    The operating principle is the same.

    Tom, if you haven’t already, take the Jeep out east on 128 and take BLM 100 to the south. Take the road on thru the campground and follow it through the canyon, it’s a cool little drive.

    I’m no expert, but over the years I have replaced 6 axle seals, and each time I used the Chicago Rawhide brand (CR). I have never had a failure of a seal I replaced so based only on that I would say CR seals work well.

    Even if you get/have pressure pro you still want a good inflator with gauge. Somewhat like Jon’s, I got this one….

    It has a night light! Which is nice. And it’s “certified” whatever that means…. but it seems accurate.

    i also bought the long chuck separately from amazon. They are also at every truck stop.

    Do each of us have a chronological number associated with our membership similar to our coach number?

    Jimmy,

    Some guys with newer Marathons were popping screens too as you describe. I don’t know if you have the same stuff as we have but to fix this they told us to run all the Ipads in sleep mode.

    After 10 mins it goes into sleep mode and I think the charge rate is different, don’t know if that will help you but no one else has had an issue.

    On mine after 10 mins it goes to sleep and to activate you push 1 button and it comes up.

    Are yours in sleep mode Jimmy? Could be the ticket.

    Later

    bv

    Thanks Andre’. Loc I had to look it up too. Glad I’m not the only one that wasn’t sure. Tomorrow I’ll give it a try before my trip.

    It failed the same way mine did, Jon( and others ) is right , having an emergency ripcord is the way to go. Also an inside the coach mini toolbox for emergency or convenience isn’t a bad idea , I got mine apart with a leather man.
