Jon, I believe Steve is talking about the “motherboard” cabinent in bay one on the CC. If his is like mine the inverters are in bay 4 along with the batteries.
Steve, my fan comes on about that 70 degree range also, but to be honest I couldn’t tell you exactly what that temp is.

So let me get this straight… Ben has has all this work done, then in the dark of night skips town and doesn’t pay his bill with Jeff, then bitches about high oil prices! So Jeff offers him a 1000 reduction in good faith and Ben still refuses to make good on the invoice?
No point in even discussing this anymore. Step up and pay your bill Ben, that’s the right thing to do.

Save
your money Dick, everything that is posted here just gets repeated
over there as a new topic in order to stimulate activity, of course
the topic then gets the spin put on it. It’s been pretty peaceful
over there until the disgruntled guy showed up again, he comes and
goes depending on what goes on here.Jamie
could easily put a halt to the friction on his side, that’s were it
always starts, but he must enjoy the drama. I for one am done just ignoring
the insults and hidden innuendos regarding the “other site”
as we’re referred. So I’ll be stepping up when needed, anyone here
that hates the drama, sorry, just ignore the thread. -
Doesn’t need it…

The old way incandescent lights are dimmed is to use a rheostat that increased the resistance, causing the lights to dim. The more modern way is to use PWM, pulse width modulation, essentially turning the light on and off so quick that the human eye sees it as dim.
Either way works fine with incandescent bulbs. Standard LED “bulbs” do not work well with the rheostat method and will barely dim before they turn off completely. There are more advanced LEDs that are dimmable and are sold specifically saying that they are dimmable with the disclaimer that they require PWM.Some multiplex modules in coaches with multiplex systems utilize PWM and when paired with LEDs designed for them will dim effectively.Like Mikee, I have changed out over 70 puck light halogen bulbs for LEDs and since my dimmable lights are controlled by PWM multiplex modules, I purchased the appropriate dimmable LEDs.The reduction in current draw and corresponding heat generation is around 70-80%, depending on the source of information quoted.

“In today’s throw away and replace culture … the expertise to fix this stuff is being lost. Cherish these guys, encourage their children to learn the crafts of their fathers and grandfathers.”
Amen to that.

On Friday you will get an agenda and a folder which will have in it a flash drive that contains the entire seminar.
On the flash drive will be all the photos we review in class as well as all the links used for the seminar.
What we won’t know until the seminar is what specific items of interest we will be discussing relative to the coaches in attendance. We are going to have several coaches in the air so you can see the differences in things such as brakes, probably a solid axle coach, definitely an IFS coach, maybe an 8V92, for sure a Series 60 and if one of our members will allow perhaps a look at a Volvo equipped coach’s engine.
If attendees are willing to show and discuss mods or features in their coaches we will attempt to set up some form of organized way to see those. For example, on my coach I have added a back up pump to the Headhunter, and I have isolated a majority of the air systems and provided each with a shut off valve. Others have features installed such as Pressure Pro, dash cams, etc. that may be of interest.
We will attempt to follow the agenda, but everyone attending should feel comfortable in asking questions about any topic as the need arises. This is your seminar.

Greg,
In case you missed it, the last part of my message was a hint! Inquiring minds want to know! -
