    Never stranded. Seems like the Prevost part and Detroit motor has always worked. Had an issue about 5 years ago when back air started leaking down on a trip and Prevost Fort Worth and about $5000 bucks fixed that as they replaced several air parts and such. Had to manually air system up and keep it up as I drove to the shop. Have spent about twice that over the years with bags and fitting, etc. at Prevost. Still will and always has dumped air in back when left over a week. Did have blower seals replaced at Stewart Stevenson, San Antone when it started blowing oil out slobber tubes last summer on a trip. Started slow and last time out before shop trip, blew about a gallon over 150 miles each way.

    Hey Dick, How many days a year would you say you spend in your bus? Try not to include the days you wish you were in your bus or the times you were bus-ting at the seams to leave?

    Just the facts man, just the facts!

    Bernie,

    No, 2 are behind the front bumper, and the other 2 are in Bay 3.

    A friend of mine has a Vantare with 2 condensers on the roof in the rear, but they don’t seem to cool any better than mine. He always has problems with them.

    Trying pushing on the door to take some pressure off of the locking system. Mine can be stiff sometimes and a push on the door seems to help.

    I sent a note to Leon at Marathon. He put me in the right direction. This wasn’t a Marathon issue but Prevost. I do have the Prevost wiring diagrams and I found the 12A wire. It also show where to re-solder the wire. If I have a wiring diagram, I can usually troubleshoot my issues.

    However if you do look at your coach and see where the 5 location is on the switch, that would help. So many wires in that location, makes it hard to see where 5 is. Plus old eyes doesn’t help either.

    thanks again everyone.

    MK,

    If you can sell the Allegro, go for it. You’re then in a much better position buying a Prevost out right vs any kind of trade deal. My H3 would sell today for about the same money I paid for it as a private sale almost 4 years ago. If you buy right, you’ll be fine.

    By the way, welcome to the forum.
