    when I talked to the owner and I asked the Delam question, the information I received was that the edges of all the panels where tight but there was some sort of bubbling in the centers of some panels.

    I suspect and have heard from the more experienced folks that a Delam issue on a coach of this vintage with it being a new to someone coach would most likely have Zero Prevost participation in the repair process.

    I don’t know much about EBay nor auctions in general, but I wonder what would cause something like that to happen.

    Mine has a round screw on pin connector for the cameras. I have a backup camera on the rear of the trailer, and 2 cameras inside the trailer to watch the cargo going down the road.

    They display on a separate screen from the regualar bus back up camera. I’m sure you could wire it up. The hardest thing would be getting the wire harness routed from the back all the way up front.

    Grizz, I think you might be on to something here, it would be nice (I don’t want to be the test dummy) to see it tested on cruise. The main thing remains though, do not let off the throttle and hit the brakes initially.

    will pickup up a meter today. Am I just putting the possitive prong on the meter to the possitive on the battery and black to black and taking a voltage reading on each house battery?

    Any $10 digital volt meter will do. You are just looking for basic DC, AC and continuity/resistance modes.

    Wildly asymmetric AC measurements in a 240V split phase system point to a bad neutral wire.

    Stand by. And be nice. A customer service representative from Ramco has just registered, I sent his password and encouraged him to discuss this issue. Since we all want it solved, let’s see if we can all help Ramco help us if he posts in response to this thread.

    I see them all the times on some trucks Larry, makes me nervous seeing those hoses spinning around, but they must work. I have no experience with them, maybe someone here does.

    July 30, 2014 at 2:57 pm in reply to: Roof air conditioners

    Eric, I have a 98 CC and my coach does not ues the square lighted Sun Mullion switches to interface with the roof airs. Do I understand yours is different.

    My 3 roof units are wired to a breaker panel in the bedroom on 20 AMP breakers and I don’t know where the thermostat gets its power. I saw where you checked the breakers so like the previous reply check to see if the thermstat is calling for A/C check to see if you are getting 120 V at the unit. Pull down the grill that covers the air filter and you will find a junction box where the 110 V wiring comes in. At least mine is wired this way. Be cautious, hopefully the wires will be hot.

    If you have power to the unit then go to the internet snd check Dometics website to see the drawings for your modle units to see if there is a reset swith or breaker in the unit itself. Assuming you have Dometic brand units.

    My thermostat controlls the three roof units and nothing else.

    Good Luck

    Mark,

    Thanks for the information about iPad mini’s and their usage in your Prevost. I sent you an email this morning.

    Thanks for the responses. Batteries are new bought in June, new starter bought in July. The coach is a 12 volt system, if that means a difference. Did a voltage drop test, with a volt ohms meter, between the frame and negative ground on battery that’s where the 1 1/2 volt difference is showing. It should be zero. All batteries read 12.8 to 13 volts, according to volt meter. Could brand new batteries bought in June already be bad? This is Rynada (the wife half) typing the response (at work), Glenn is at the coach with no internet access (disconnected due to move), so we are doing this on the phone, if anything sounds crazy it’s because I know way less than Glenn about this stuff. Really, really appreciate all the help.
