X2 on Bill being the go to source for LEDs. We also bought some from him at Oysterfest this spring. First rate. About the only thing he didn’t do was install them for us. 😉

I do the same as Doug and usually call the day before, or many times just before arrival. An app I ise and have enjoyed is RV Parky. Silly name, but useful app.

I agree with Michael that a trickle charger is a far less expensive way to protect chassis batteries than replacing the DDEC associated boxes, but that raises a question in my mind about why there is the need when other coaches can go months with no charging at all, and still have capacity to spin the engine.

After some more research, found out this is just a six-inch 6-pin Ribbon cable which connects the black box that Marathon puts on the grey box Cruiseair. It controls the Aux heat for my SMX control box. In this case, it controls my Webasto since it’s on my cruiseair for my Salon.
Less than $5 part …

I should add that the HWH controls the coach leveling and height functions through the same solenoid valves so if you temporarily use one of the other solenoid valve coils to restore the coach to the driving height you probably should turn the HWH system off because the auto level system will not work un less all coils and solenoid valves are working.
You should be able to get the coils, solenoid valves or the complete assembly through Norgren valve, Prevost parts or your converter. I would suggest (assuming the problem is the center coil) you only replace the failed part rather than trying to replace and replumb the entire assembly.

Bernie is going to make you pay for that one you know……..

Randal,
Yes, I have direct and can have my local stations changed by zip code, but couldn’t do it as long as I had my residence. Once we sold our house and canceled everything except the Coach Receiver, no problem. If you have multiple receivers in your house and Coach, they won’t do it.
Dish was much easier to deal with regarding the local channel changes with no problem.

Michelin One Call number is 800 847 3911.
At this time, three days after the service, I do not have any info on warranty or charges. -
The important thing with temps is not so much the actual temp as the differential. Geo.

Bill,
Those Zip Dee air/electric are nothing but trouble. We’ve had several members replace with manual as you’ve already heard and the one I saw looked really good.

Bill and Linda:
As Peter refers, we took the automatic Zip Dee off our previous 2003 Liberty XLII and replaced with a comparable Zip Dee manual awning (not just the window awnings Peter is referring to.) Had to make matching cover plate for one set of mounting holes and repainting the cover plate to match striping on the coach – was biggest issue.
Getting caught several times unable to retract the awning forced the decision to change out…. Last time, had to “jump it” closed using a car battery with long wires with roach clips standing on the top of toad to reach the zip dee motor – did it for me….. Life is too short to be hampered by a tempermental awning causing problems at the most inopportune times!!!
Good luck but it will be a worthwhile investment if you use your awning regularly…..

At one time Prevost had a service bulletin calling for a change in the wiring to the headlights on XL coaches. I do not think it applied to later model XL coaches, but it was because putting the headlights on caused a drop in voltage on the 12V side of things.
It would be worth measuring voltage to any of the analog gauges with the headlights off and seeing if there is a voltage drop when they are on. It could be an indication of an issue likely related to a poor connection and voltage drop, like a bad ground.
