Tom is referring to my 08 XLII that I had the equalizer recall repair down in Dallas. I noticed my electrical system going awry the following day while hangin out at the OKC no-rally. 3 of my batteries were being overcharged, gassing off, and the other 3 were depleted. Not a pretty site, since I bought them this year.
I had to return the coach to Dallas with all systems shut down where I was told the new equalizer(s) was (were) defective. If that was the case, I’m not quite sure why the problem didn’t rear its ugly head at the time of the repair, if checked out properly. Well, they have been replaced again and my coach remains sitting there waiting for panel delamination repair. We have yet to finish discussions regarding the integrity of, and responsibility for my batteries, of which I have Lifeline involved in making that determination. Now, I’m a little nervous about other problems vis-a-vis Rick’s issues. I’ll have them go through my systems thoroughly and report back if there are any other findings.

Do your inverters have temperature sensing?
The charge is affected by temperature and those inverters equipped with sensors adjust the charge accordingly.
You have a lot of battery power, and if you do not do a lot of dry camping have you considered reducing the batteries by maybe 2 or 4?

Mice have chewed a pin hole in one of your air lines. Had this happen to me but was more than a pin hole. to make it worse it was in the 4 inch PVC duct running front to back with about 8-to other hoses. I could barely hear it. Bob

Never had the condition you describe. Some electrical testers will read low because they are not true RMS testers.
On a previous coach I had a circuit go bad and when I accessed the rear of the panel I found some screws needed tightening and I noticed some loose ones had some evedence of heat due to the lack of tighness.

Red I had the same problem a few months ago. I had to replace the fuel pump which is no biggie. You can buy a replacement at any Nampa Auto Parts store.

Hey Sid, if it’s in Visalia I would gladly take it off your hands! I usually get by there 1-2 times per month.
I have a combo setup but would like a standalone!

Hi Mark Just for your information when Prevost went to the Volvo engine They did do a gear change in the rearend to make the coach more responsive.In my experince with climbing hills I just pick my spot an stay there. Iam always more concerned about going down the hill then going up. It is a brake thing.

There is no substitute for cubic inches. Period. End of discussion.
I’m thinking that engine may have to be mounted amidships so the coach will not have the handling assocated with an engine heavy enough to lift the front wheels off the ground. Imagine the burnout you could do with that engine.
From my point of view it pains me to throw away tires because they aged out. If I had that engine I would pull into the tire dealer’s parking lot and do a burnout that would make Jeff Gordon proud so I would feel better getting rid of tires with no tread left.

Wonderful craftmanship, great job

That type of circuit breaker should have essentially zero resistance when closed, which is the normal position. The circuit breaker is bad if you have no continuity or high resistance.

Go as far up the food chain as you deem appropriate. Prevost lists a whole bunch of folks and I am sure if it makes sense the president of Prevost would like to hear from us.
