Art,
I had some thoughts about the white button also that were incorrect. That is not for your brake lights. It works with the cruise control to decelerate speed when the CC is set.

We’ve had one for about 10 years. (Hughes Autoformer)
When we are on the dog show circuit we frequently have to stay in sketchy fairgrounds, ag centers, etc… Sometimes since power is “provided”, generators are not allowed.
Especially in the summertime, when everyone is running their air conditioners full blast, incoming voltage will drop. That is not a good thing for electrical components. Voltage goes down and Amperage has to go up to get the same Power.
I always carry it but only use it when I see a problem.

When I replaced my marker lights I replaced the well nuts. Go to NAPA and see what size you can get. I bought new stainless machine screws to match the well nut size + about 1/4 in length. Likely you will have to enlarge the hole to about 3/8 to get the rubber well nut to fit.
Try and get 3/4 long well nuts. Otherwize you may need to dig out some of the foam insulation to have a hole big enough.

We have passed a number of RV motor home accidents over the years. The one constant in every single one that we went by was the chassis and the house structure separated from one another. In almost every case insulation, wood and bits and pieces defined the path the vehicle took as it was disassembling itself
Rollover accidents were especially scary because it was obvious the riders had zero protection because if the upper structure did not separate, it collapsed.
Seeing one of the TV shows about high end RVs really drove home the point about the lack of passenger protection when showing how one RV that cost over $1,000,000 had the wall panels screwed to the chassis platform. They weren’t welding any upper structure. They were just using fasteners to hold the top to the bottom.

All,
We stayed at Harbortown RV Resort in Monroe, MI. We were very pleased with this campground. The only negative is that there are train track about a half a mile from this park and you can hear the train in the ! – 2 AM time period.
We will stay there again.

Tom and Jon, thank you for all the hard work you do for the community, these are big savings on the tires. For a full set of 8 tires it would save $1080 dollars, worth the dues we pay. Keep up the great work

UPDATE: right rear norgren only solved the right rear problem. I imagine the left will go next but at this point the left rear stays up for several days…good enough for me! Thanks for the help.

Tom, Nancy, Jon and Di,
We know it takes you all. Thanks for all your help and generosity of time and knowledge. Beside the dues and discounts, the amount of money the members have saved by the incredible sharing of knowledge on this site by members has to be huge. Throw in the value of friendships gained and PC’s success is truly a value to us all.
Thanks again to you all,

I understand more about the PDI now. When I bought the coach I was buying from a luxury coach dealer and they said they did a full PDI and fixed all the issues. I should have done my own PDI also.
Even with the mileage difference I still enjoy it and wouldn’t change the decision to buy it.

They came to my storage place….she was local in Phoenix from Rockwell….travel is 197 per hr…..work is 234 per hr….took a bit less than an hour.
All came to life but generator would not start….turned on engine…..then it started …..It now starts without. engine on…….
I believe there are back up power batteries but also seems to be a small battery to hold memory….she said it will now operate without that battery….

Loc – Lisa just had her second hip replacement so your method unlikely to be an option for me. Only controls are remote or switch in water bay.
Dan – they didn’t give me that option. Might pop for $300 but not likely not for the larger $$$$ as longer as I can reach the manual switch.
Have checked all the fuses, etc. Thx for input. Mike
