    You might try re-booting the whole coach (shut down and re-start). I’ve had some strange things happen and this has fixed it.

    I guess I’m the only one that has a broken screen tensioner?

    The mirror from Behlings is a really nice one. I’ve used a similar one a few times and they are slick.

    The transmission output seal is surprisingly straightforward to change. Just 6 bolts. Even a caveman (me) could do it.

    I see my warranty dude mentioned our accident with a Prius, (don’t hit one, those things are heavy because of the batteries) I’ll keep it short. We had a Prius try and do a uturn directly in front of us, hit her on the Apost with my right front corner at 45mph and spun her around into the side of the bus. She was very lucky, walked away with a sore arm and bloody nose. At impact we had some cupboard doors come open and some stuff scatter on the floor, minor for a collision. The deputy investigating the accident had driven tour busses in Yellowstone and knew what a Prevost was, his comment was “That thing is a tank, if you’d of hit her with any other motorhome you’d of rolled in the ditch and we’d be picking up the pieces.” As it was, we drove it home 1100 miles.

    Hey Tom,

    “Both my Marathon H’s had the switch, 02 and 04. I liked being able to shut down the chassis.”

    “Had”? I thought you were still rollin in an H with a single slide these days or did the wife convince you to get rid of that in favor of two slides?

    Just so there is no confusion a low coolant level warning will not be on the check engine light. Low coolant level will result in a stop engine warning.

    Depending on vintage there are only three or four stop engine causes. On all coaches low oil pressure, high coolant temp and low coolant level will result in a stop engine light. On newer coaches a high oil temp will also result in an SEL.

    The expansion tank has the coolant level sensor and sometimes the sensor fails. If a low coolant level code occurs and the expansion tank has coolant above the sensor level usually a jumper between the sensor plug terminals (a paper clip) will extinguish the false code.
