I have had no personal experience with Parliament, but Rick May is more than capable of supporting the coach. They have a reputation for having a robust and well designed house electrical system.
I have never heard anyone express concerns about the features on a Parliament regarding quality or how well things work.
I think Mikee should jump in because i believe he can be very specific about the coach and features.

EVERYONE (YES I AM YELLING) needs to get their coach weighed with all of the stuff they normally have on board, full fuel, full water, and empty holding tanks.
Your safety depends on doing this because unless you inflate your tires to the max pressure as listed on the sidewall you have no way of knowing you have the correct amount of air pressure in your tires.
The maximum pressure will likely prevent blowouts, but it compromises ride comfort and handling. Inflating tires to the pressure specified in the tire pressure charts not only assures protection against blowouts but it provides the best ride, handling, braking and wear.

Just saying Prevost has a lot more options then us small independent shops….This has and continues to effect everyone.

So I can trust Prevost to get it right.
How did you know it was the wrong ones when you had a wrong order?
Should I dust off my bags and search for a number?
Is Prevost the best source for them?

Well she’s alive again turns out she was low on Freon due to a small and very slow leak, I have patched the leak and added Freon and she is cooling once again.

I always thought the unwritten rule was – If you carried a spare part you will never need it, BUT if you don’t carry it you will need it.

I believe the air bag heights are not why the front won’t rise. The Mae Wests have a larger diameter, which means more square inches of lifting area.
At the time early 90’s buses were being built Marathon and Country Coach were both building coaches that exceeded the Prevost front axle weight rating. To make matters worse, some owners were adding weight to the front axle by adding a lot of heavy personal items in the bays towards the front, or replacing lighter weight carpeting with granite tile.
To get the front to rise owners learned to lift the tag axle. The situation was so bad Prevost had a design change to use the Mae West bags, but also to add a second set of shocks to the front axle for a total of four.
The first step to determining what is required is to get axle weights. If the front axle is within the limits the fix might be as simple as getting the correct air bag, something that does not require any modification. That is very important because some larger air bags have the potential to rub and making the change is only going to create the potential to have air bags with holes worn in them.

Here is a little motivator for you!

It was a glitch Larry. We couldn’t get it to hunt HD channels on air and it’s the 1st trip out for Jimmy with it.
Jeff installed the Razor to be operated by the Crestron so after we ran some tests Jimmy called Jeff and they fiddled with the antenna switch in the rear closet and it’s working.

Wired them in by modifying the old wiring into the 2008 style deutz connector. All works fine. I don’t have the new style headlights, but the round HID projectors.

Thanks Mikee. Am not sure these switches weren’t messed with when someone changed to LED lights in the bays. Wasn’t aware they were dual purpose.
Tom, after testing with a meter its my opinion the switch in the photo is for the bay LOCK light not for the bay door AJAR light unless it’s somehow a dual purpose switch but I don’t see how it could detect a door ajar.
