    The individual wire numbers will take you to the connection on the ECC board. Each of the panels on my coach is listed separately. As an example the lower dash panel is marked LD (lower dash) and is made op of three wires LD1,LD2 and LD3. Even for a newbie like me the wires are well marked and easy to trace if you have the numbers. I can give you the numbers from my coach but doubt they match. Mine are all lettered as above which might help. Bath panel B1 and B2. Entry panel E1 and E2. Entry light panel EL. FB1 and FB2 front bedroom panel and so on. As Tom said they may be located on the back side of the ECC. Good luck.

    Tom

    Thanks for your info regarding the access plate. That will make life easy.

    I have always drained the water in the steer bay but never got to the filters. That may be an issue and cause of increased noise

    Thanks again

    The switch for the lights in the engine area on my 97 and my current 06 is located on the RH side of the electrical box above the engine.

    I thought of doing the same to mine but I go to sporting events where they require you to vent thte generator up to the roof line for safety of those around you.

    Good luck.

    Ditto with Jon on hub bearings.

    Another problem with towing.

    This picture shows the correct horizantal position of the tow bar, flat and level.

    Tie rod ends checked for wear.

    Front shocks or struts. This I learned on the Saturn we pulled for estimate 60K miles.

    When I installed a new set of tires we replace both struts. No parts issue just plain worn out.

    Mileage on the Saturn was 42K but well over 100K towing.

    Glen,

    Being serious here in response to your tongue in cheek comment. You have to realize that almost every Prevost enthusiast or owner has competed in life to reach the position where they could afford a Prevost conversion. I suspect very few of us has not worked, struggled, competed and vied for success. So while for the most part we seem to shy away from making waves when we are alone and the only Prevost in the KOA, we are not above a little bragging and fun when we are together at rallies or on forums like this one.

    In case you missed it look back on some of the posts where we engage in a little one upsmanship which for us Liberty owners is not difficult.

    I’m going to count the minutes now before some Millennium or Marathon owner jumps all over that.

    Glad you posted that Al , one of my company’s deals with that kind of stuff every day , I never pull to shoulder unless its a emergency , I always go to off ramp or pullout, if I get a flat tire I get vehicle under control then go slow to pullout or off ramp , to wreck a rim or get killed no brainer I think !!!!!!!

    Doing the simple things yourself is rewarding financially and in terms of self satisfaction. I replaced the driver’s window along with all the air bags, brake chambers and hub seals. It’s not rocket science. My labor cost: $00. I’m no mental giant. If I can do it, you can do it. Information and help is available here.

    Well my Norgrens came next day air, 570 and they’re wrong… Not Prevost’s fault, bad advice from Liberty parts. As I mentioned earlier, Liberty modifies Prevosts level low with their own. The two front valves that control the rear 5 ports are standard electric over air Prevost valves that they use for many applications and they are 24v. Liberty changes everything over to 12v including the manifold in the steering bay. So I end up with 24v valves.

    The good news, is I can still get going, but now have to use the old 13 year old valve and coil with new Norgrens. For those of you with Liberty’s, the only place I could previously find the 12v valves and coils was at Liberty, Prevost doesn’t use them.
