You can definitely feel it in stage 2 if working, even stage 1 will pull a little on mine.

Per, I believe the Starliner has an exhaust brake.

Is that the reason some animals eat there young? I’ve seen those party animals at every race we ever attended, not worth money spent anymore.

Marathon’s procedure is clear, when disconnecting from shore power, turn off the main breaker before unplugging. When connecting to shore power, turn the breaker back on once you see the correct power and there are no faults. On my vintage, I have 4 small LED’s that light green whenever everything is correct.
If I recall, my 01 Liberty had similar instructions about using the breaker when plugging and unplugging.

Joel,
If it senses temperature at the batteries that resolves the charging voltage issue, but having come from western NY where in one day we could start out with sub zero temps, and by that afternoon we were in the 80’s you can imagine what kind of swing the batteries called for in terms of charging voltage.

Tom,
I had a similar situation a while back and had to run the DD until the big alternator could get some life back into the house batts. Once they came up a little the inverters took over.
Good luck!

Harry, Mine doesn’t require a manual downshift for jake brake to work. It pulls down and automatically downshifts and will until it hits bottom of gears. Just not as abrupt as pushing the buttons but stops good without using them. Definitely feel them pulling you down. Usually don’t leave um on in the hills around Central Texas as brake lights come on everytime you go down a hill with cruise on and they apply.

Hi Per,
Mine is a 5 speed and I know from conversations that the Jake shifts to a lower gear. I did not notice that, all I know is everyone has told me when the Jake is activated its like throwing out an anchor! Mine felt like throwing out a Jello mold! I felt no slowing other than what I normally feel when lifting off the peddle.
I spoke with Jeff earlier today and he told me the next time I drive the coach to open the drivers window, set the Jake to 1 or 2 and see if I hear the roar typical of the Jake actuating?

Mark, here’s the model I’m using, but Amazon is stating it’s currently unavailable. It’s no longer on the Magellan website and appears it may have been discontinued. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B010SDBPJI/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Davy,
Don’t side with Tom. Think of poor Nancy and how bad she wants slides.

Andy said…. “at some point you’ll be shopping for a new dash cam. I’ve been through a few and my favorite (to date) is a Magellan model. A notable feature is that the rear of the camera is an LCD screen and when recording, the display shows the speed in large numbers”…..
Andy, which Magellan model are you using? I’m thinking of getting one too.
We have added tinting on our windshield and side windows (installed at Liberty Coach)….love it. But, it says not to attach anything to the tinting.
I was thinking of somehow clipping the camera to the window surround or on the dash itself if possible.
Thanks,
Mark

Thank you for posting all the pictures. That is what the rest of us have been waiting for. Great Pictures!
Tom, we could have had a quiet discussion drinking coffee while the rest talked about understanding and repairing their slides.

Jon…
Yes the tire will be inspected even though the Pressure Pro didn’t sound the alarm until we cranked up yesterday morning so I’m pretty sure it was fine on the highway yesterday as the Pressure Pro is working properly now. We drove slowly about 3 miles to the tire shop and it was still 55 psi when we got there… it leaked out over night apparently so hopefully it’s okay but will be checked.
Thanks Jon

Dave,
I had a 97 Marathon and don’t remember, but the temp gauge may be for the rear end. As to the air gauge, maybe aux, but mine also had a Howard Steer and maybe an air gauge for adjustment. I’m guessing here….
