Part of the problem in trying to give coach specific information is different coaches even from the same converter may have been built different.
My 97 Liberty had the webasto in a different location so all the associated plumbing routing is likely to be different. Mine was a 45 foot and the Webasto was street side behind the tag.
The only way aside from asking Liberty to provide a diagram would be to follow the piping and hoses. The Webasto circulating pump is a good starting point and just follow the best you can.
The Webasto can heat the engine, the house heat exchangers and the HW tank so the routing of the heated coolant flow is going to be a little complex because each can be isolated.

Unfortunately I don’t have the headroom without removing/cutting/welding the little stand the Gast sits on, which is behind a Cruisair condenser unit and under the house batteries, inboard curbside bay 2. I may think about an alternate compressor location and run a line to it instead…

Thanks Jon, that view makes sense to me.

Not familiar with Featherlite, but on my Royal Coach, the breakers are in the passenger side engine door (on the side of the coach).

That’s why this info is so valuable as Prevost does not carry the 12V solenoid. Lots of us with Liberty XLs that are not Elegant!
Kelli was telling me about a local guy who was having trouble with his suspension some years ago and dropped it with Liberty in FL to fix it. They charged him somewhere well north of $30k and replaced all Norgren components, not sure what else they did. They gave it back to him with a couple lines reversed and it worked worse than before. She figured it out and got him sorted. Yowza.

Thanks to everyone for the great input, BUT due to Hurricane Laura we will delay our trip to Arkansas for another time. Changed our plans to Blue Ridge and Shanandoah area of VA. Looks like this area will get pretty strong remnants of Hurricane Laura too, soooo heading South now.
Thanks again, will use this info for another time.

Here are a couple of threads I found that may be of help:

Art,
Big improvement from your last trip. How much solar do you have and how many house batteries ?
Love the Victron battery monitor. It’s on my want list.

Chuck, that is the correct part number for the front airbags.

Anytime is good…Starting now is when usually schools are back in so there is less people up there on vacation with young ones….

Was wondering if it was my browser acting up… Glad to know all well.
LOBSTERS – we purchased our coach May of 2019 and took it from Stuart, Florida to Acadia National Park over four months.
We found BOOTH BAY to be our favorite destination in Maine – could have stayed there a month! We preferred it over Bar Harbor as it had “everything” yet was significantly less crowded.
Ok – the Lobster part…we found the best tasting and most reasonable lobster at Pinkham’s Gourmet Market in Booth Bay. They cook them to order and were so incredibly friendly, I would recommend calling them to discuss placing & picking up your desired large order. We ate at Pinkham’s several times! Could not get enough! TELEPHONE NUMBER: 207-633-6236

****ALSO, Boothbay had THE BEST RV park we found in Maine. Perhaps because it had paved roads and was the only one we found with paved roads – can’t stand gravel after gravel after gravel.
SHORE HILLS CAMPGROUND 207-633-4782
Booth Bay also had the many restaurants and things to do, just less crowded and more quaint by far.

The relay in the top is the built in resistor type, no flyback diode.
The relay in the bottom picture has a flyback diode and I do not see a resistor in the relay schematic.
A flyback diode or freewheeling diode is placed with reverse polarity from the power supply and in parallel to the relay’s inductance coil. The use of a diode in a relay circuit prevents huge voltage spikes from arising when the power supply is disconnected.
I’m not sure about the inter changeability between the 2 types. We’ll need someone smarter than me to chime in for that answer.

I like my tire covers protects tires and keeps wheels looking good, Before I drop the bus down it takes me 5 minute’s to put covers on.

I believe that is your 12/24 v load balance
