Rick…
You will really enjoy that upgrade… looks terrific.
Cheers, Diane

I just picked up my new to me 1999 H at Liberty in Florida and among other problems (some of which self inflicted) was the fact that the OTR air wouldn’t cool the bus at all. I was warm sitting up front in the afternoon and had to bring the shades nearly all the way down. Ran the bus with 3 of the roof airs running and it was passible but NOT cold. Finally pulling into Dallas I began to get the HP air red light on and just shut the damn thing down. I am NOT impressed.
As to the light I was told that the OTR system in 95 degree air shows this all the time and to more or less ignore it as it will reset. Of course it does, then red lights again, shuts down again, resets again, etc. etc.
Wish I had you guys OTR bus air mine appears to be showing its age….

I know I’m really late to the party, but a basic idea i think might be helpful would be how to access all of the things you may have to fix. For example, the air system that powers the floor at the front door, fantastic fans that hide behind ceiling treatments, hidden plumbing fixtures, and anything else the converter hides behind something else to make it look pretty while befuddling the owner with no mechanical skills.

This is when the coachs with jump start solenoid system comes in handy.

There have been so many slide versions it is best if you look at the relays and circuit breakers, including those in the bay with the slide room controllers and determine which ones to trip or pull. I have slide room circuit breakers in several locations.

So the bottom line it to adjust the steering last and NOT by toe in/out? Prevost built the bus, so what Jon described is the correct method I would assume.
Now I think I’ll get mine done even though it steers great with no tire wear.

Bernie,
Can you help straighten this out with the office?

They make them in 5, 12 and 24 volt configurations.
I don’t know how hard it would be to add a set of swithces but I am sure it would not be cheap.
The circuit boards the switches go on would have to be made and then the cabling would have to go to the main control unit where all the other switches and the circuit boards are located.
We all have switches located in multipul locations the control the same lights or other devices.

I’d like to make some simple (at least I think they should be simple) changes to our Crestron system (I think we have a Crestron system).
1. When the door opens, the Sunmulon switches should lite up without having to push a button on the pad for the switch pad lights. When the door closes, the lights in the switches could go off.
2. When a light/function is “off” the Sunmulon switch should be “red”. When the light/function is “on”, the switch should be “green”. Right now our lights don’t change color when the switch is pushed; but the color of the Sunmulon switches in George and Corey’s Vantare do! I suspect that we might need different Sunmulon switches to change colors (I presume our switches have one light in the switch, George & Corey’s Vantage has two lights (one green, one red) in the switches).
3. Probably the same change on the touch screens. Seems like when something is “on” the icon is “red”, when its “off” the icon is “green”. I think logically that is reversed over what it should be. If my logic if flawed, I’m open to being educated. You guys and gals with fancy aircraft, what do the colors on the switches and pushbuttons in our planes mean?
4. I sleep on the right side of the bed. The Creston touch screen in the bedroom is on the left side. I would like to add a small array of Sunmulon pushbutton switches on the right side inside the little drop down door that has the car stereo that rarely gets used.
Seeing what I’d like to do, is it easy or extremely difficult (expensive) to do what I’d like to do?
Has anyone ever used the Sunmolun switches in other applications? Like using them as light swtiches in a house or office? I presume they operate at low voltage (12 or 24 volt) and operate a relay that controls the 120volt or 240volt circuit.

Curb lights????
Are they the same as the (amber I think) running lights and turning signals on the side of the coach? or those white lights which provide illumination along the sides and in back?

Camping world can do it for you. Last time I saw it cost $99.

Unless your coach tires require pressures greatly in excess of the compressor cut in pressure (usually around 90 to 100) the engine driven compressor is a good source of air via the accessory air system.
My steers take about 105 so I would have a little bit of the inconvenience making the compressor cycle off and on to get the higher pressures needed, but my drive and tag require 85 and 80 respectively so they are simple to inflate.
Fast idle helps with the volume of air produced.

Karl:
Assuming your Crestron is controlled through an in-house WiFi modem, when you want to use your phone to control it, isn’t it necessary to change the WiFi setting from the cell service WiFi to the in-house WiFi, then back again if you want to use the data feature of the phone while near your coach? Just curious!

Drive the bus more they don’t seem to wear out as fast ,as when they sit around , my new toad
It has a Cummings 5″9 in it it’s great
