Where can I get the PC license plate that you mention?

I am absolutely advocating a complete coach house shut down. There is no way I would ever change house batteries with any chance of power being returned or taken from the batteries.

Protect the big bolt head and front bumper when you take the big bolt out to tilt the bumper down … but you probably knew that already.
There’s lots of really cool things behind the front bumper in a Liberty.

Vintage Air here in the San Antonio area sells crimping tools, fittings etc, like Part #: 42400-VUG

Ben, Gabi and I have not been close friends. But, I think we enjoyed each others company when we could argue life, politics and religion over a beer or two or three after work.
Ben earned our respect and we are saddened by his passing. However, it happened.
His obituary does not indicate any other preferences, so we have sent flowers, today.
Ben, we miss you and your submarine stories!

Could be as simple as a bad battery as Prevost found with one of my NAPA batteries less than 6 months old. Dead cell.

Jon and others……….
I made this entire issue regarding the change to the fan clutch and how all of this relates to belt wear and potential damage to Prevost.
I was assured there was a service bulletin. There is not. I asked for some advice from Prevost, and specifically a service bulletin so this entire problem would be known and corrective measures taken if needed. So far nothing has been issued.
If it seems like I am a little bitchy you are correct because problems of this type will shut a coach down. My sense that this needs attention is in part driven by the fact I spoke to a couple of Prevost technicians about the problem relating to clutches and fan belts and both are not only aware of the potential problems, but both told me how they have to grind and modify the clutch support to prevent issues with the belt. And yet I have seen nothing in writing from Prevost.

Buddy is right, that is the perfect place to stay out by Lake Travis. Just make sure you don’t miss it on the left when you come down that road. There is nowhere to turn around before you run into the lake. Ask me how I know.

Jerry,
No offense to anyone, here is what that device really does.
That device is a pressure relief valve for the compressor. It’s purpose is to bleed all the air pressure out of the supply line from the compressor to the first check valve/ air reservoir (tank) when the air pressure reaches the high pressure switch set point turning off the compressor. Later when the pressure drops to the pressure switch start point, this permits the compressor to start (first few seconds) with no initial load (back pressure) on the compressor. This allows the compressor to start more easily, reduces the electrical load on the motor and electrical system, and ensures that the motor will not stall on start up and possibly blow a fuse/breaker. It greatly enhances the the life of the compressor motor.
If it leaks continuously, there is another component that has failed. Likely a check valve. Usually somewhere in the line that goes to the tank. The check valve can be anywhere AFTER where the pressure relief line T’s off of the line from the compressor to the tank.
Not trying to stir up anything, just trying to point you in right direction for troubleshooting. Good luck.
With the right pictures we might be able to spot the offending component. Maybe pictures of supply line after the Tee that branches to the pressure switch line.
Hate to speculate and send you off in the wrong direction but in picture #3 the line above the gauge has a check valve in it. Is that the supply line for the tank?

I’m almost certain it is 1 1/2 inch. It is the same as the lug nuts, to make it easy to get to the spare tire none of us carry.
