Please excuse my initial post. Trying to type with a dog in your lap is of no help.
I have two problems, I think. Problem 1; No air building in bus system. No pressure indications on dash guages. I will consede this is probably related to weather and freezing temps. Problem 2 is no power to level low norgren solinoid valves. When switch is in road position there should be power on one valve. Move the switch to lower front, lets say, no power as I select dump or raise. I am unsure where the power to this system is supplied from. I beleive from the box above engine. As I also stated I am in need of one 24v relay. I do not have the number with me now.
The good news is that I have no air I really dont need the valves to work.
Thanks so much

I also have one I’m having a problem with. I’d love to see an affordable fix for these windows.

Went throught the wiring diagrams from Liberty… Couldnt find anything on the in-dash stereo.
Will keep looking. The Yellow line is getting 12volts, so I know it’s good. Trying to figure out what they red line should do (in terms of volts) when the ignition is switched on. There is a illumination wire on the stereo wiring harness (orange/white), but all details I find on that is that it’s “optional” and if not connected, the radio will illuminate at 100% (which is fine).
Speakers are not actually using the wiring harness and are using RCA cables that I guess go to the Alpine speakers in the ceiling above driver/living room.

I think the fact the HWH is completely overiding you Prevost level low is a clear problem. To what extent it contributes however is beyond my level of understanding. I can choose the easy way out and say that might be the problem, but I would rather you try to get the coach up as you suggest and in some way disable the HWH, even if you have to go so far as to take the electrical connectors off the coils on the solenoid valve manifold or pop all 5 C clips and pull the 5 coils so we are assured nothing is sending any pneumatic commands to the suspension.
If you do that and we are confident the HWH cannot influence the suspension and the coach leans or sags down we can be assured you have a leak.
The fact the rear will not raise to ride height or above with the tag lifted is not a concern or a surprise. Depending on how much weight the tag axle carries, when you lift it you are asking 2 air bags per side to do what three per side have carried and it might just be too much weight for the two to raise with the available pressure.
If you decide to disable the HWH using the method I suggested above (clear overkill, but effective) why not start with the coach at drive height, and if it sags, put things together, then try lifting the tag and see if there is any change. Or for now leave it as long as you believe the HWH is not working.

Dean, There have been numerous steering wheel designs over the years so I would suggest you go to the Prevost publications page (a link is on our site under links) and look in the service manual for the method used to get at the horn contacts.
I had the same problem on one of my previous coaches and that steering wheel had a series of allen screws to remove after I popped the button.

We will be over at Barber for the Indy Races as well as the AMA races. Looks like we will be in lot D (thanks for reminding me to go make my Indy reservations).

Glad I could help Big Al !

I don’t think it would be difficult to find an acceptable location for any device such as a pressure pro in the driver’s area. I am sure the dash mounted position would be made to work, but it could also be mounted below the dash, or on the wall to the left of the driver. I had a CB mounted on the cabinet to the driver’s right one time so even that location could be considered.
John also had a very good idea if someone uses a Silverleaf or has changed the CC dash to a Silverleaf dash.

Robert, Parliament used a custom exhaust tip that contained the engine, the generator, and the Aqua Hot. They used this designe for years and never heard of any problems or issues. My new to me 05 has this exhaust and its kinda neat every thing comeing out in one place, hope this helps.

It’s really kind of a lateral move, a ’99 shell H-Vantare single slide. 1 owner coach with 365 steer & tag upgrade, coleman-mach retro-fit for the R-Vac and flawless paint and interior. Needs very little…..Ben & Rick have been over it with a fine tooth comb. Now we get to push buttons (slide, Girard and air pocket doors etc.) too ! Get it between X-mas and New Years. Think we have the XL sold ? Merry Christmas to all. Geo

Tom, would you mind posting a picture of the Pressure Pro mounted in your bus. It looks like the best system available but the shape of my dash gives me trouble when trying to imagine where to mount it. I’m hoping if I see one installed it would give me perspective. Thanks

The controller was cheap so dancing with music was a fun thing to do.
When you are in a campground those lights are impressive at night. I wouldn’t use them when in a rest area, Walmart or truck stop. Those are places you do not want any attention.

Congratulations ! These things are wonderful and always keep you thinking. PC has some folks with great knowledge and those of us trying to soak it up. Enjoy the trip home it’s bound to be an adventure.

Yes, that was our friend’s coach. It is a nice one.
