Good grief, you’ve altered the Liberty bay, are you nut’s! Just when I thought I was about caught up, here you go.
Hmm, I think I like it, but mine is on the driver side. Great, now I have another project to consider.
PS – Nice job….

I’m 100% with Gil on this one. It is not only lying that is irksome when buying something. I think courtesy on the road has become a thing of the past, as well as elsewhere. Be honest folks, when is the last time anyone went to a restaurant and for a one hour meal nobody pulled out their phone?
Has any politician ever been expected to do what they say they will do?
Does anyone think any government employee is here to help you?
Is the check really in the mail?
Now when someone does exactly as they say or is completely honest in describing something they are selling we treat them as going above and beyond.
BTW in the examples I gave above there was a couple of PC members with me and they were as shocked as I was that a seller of a coach would tell such blatant lies, especially when the truth was so easily revealed. I hope all buyers understand if they fail to verify what sellers tell them they can face substantial costs after purchasing the coach.

Wow loose hub. Did you have the previous work done at Prevost?

Dean,
As a potential buyer with no trade in you can anticipate the welcome mat being laid out for you everywhere people are selling coaches. Take advantage of that and do your research because you are now in the driver’s seat.
Bring your checkbook to Branson.

After starting the engine at low idle to let the air pressure build up to 60 PSI then I turn the high idle switch to on that will prevent the belts from flying off the pulley.

Call Prevost Ft.Worth 866-773-8678, they will give you that info

MemberSeptember 24, 2013 at 6:53 am in reply to: Adjusting Engine Compressor Governor – CautionGil, We do not have any pressure regulator for the air bags on our coaches, but if the coach axle weight limits are not exceeded I believe that at ride height 100 PSI will not be exceeded.
As we increase the pressure in the air bags the coach rises. We do not need maximum pressure to reach the fully raised height. On my 97 I played with pressures out of curiosity and found my coach reached the maximum height on the front axle (limited by the shocks) at a pressure greater than the driving height pressure, but less than the coach’s 120 PSI maximum. It wasn’t a great difference but it was measurable. I think around 5 PSI but cannot remember the specifics.
I suggest you do increase your air system pressure to the maximum limit as specified by Prevost. It will increase the speed of raising the coach.
My current coach shows 120 PSI max pressure, but the Haldex data sheet says 123 so there are some minor variations. Both our coaches are going to be slow to respond when we want them to go up compared to my 97 which had the solid front axle. That configuration did not have the small “ping” tanks that have the effect of increasing the volume of air in the air bags, so when we want the coaches to rise we have a greater volume of air to bring up to the needed pressure so try not to compare your coach with an older one without the “ping” tanks.

Jim,
Shop that air bag and valve replacement. You will have enough money difference from what you were quoted to buy me a first edition Lawrence Welk album and a HiFi to play it on.
Actually you will save multiple thousands and you won’t have to buy me the Lawrence Welk album or HiFi.

We had to replace the adjustable timer switch on ours then all was well… It just had no pressure… ours was a small timer switch located inside the back of the toilet… we had a removable lid behind the toilet where all wiring was hidden and the switch in there was adjustable but no longer working… if my memory serves me correctly the new switch was just over $100 but well worth it… has worked flawlessly since and we can adjust it however we choose to.
The problem we had sounds exactly like yours does.
If this is your problem its an easy fix.
Cheers, Diane

Just out of currosity, can the AGS be set to come on earlier and avoid the below 50% cut-off point?
I found our AGS component in the bay with the inverter (attached to the bay ceiling) and there is an adjustment on it to set the voltage amount to start the genny. I think it’s set at 12.

I don’t attempt anything less than 13’6″ no matter what. I don’t use back roads unless absolutely necessary to get into a campground or such.
We had several of our truck drivers hit overpasses where the sign was wrong. Last one was around Grand Forks, ND a few years ago, where they had just put down new asphalt and not checked or revised the sign. They paid for our damaged trailer in that one.

I have tried to load photos from my iPhone to bill I can not get it to work either

Careful, I may suggest an address in Beverly Hills, FL.:)

Bill,
Great idea doing an LED change over. I was under the impression that our electronic light controls required some electric up- grade or remodel so we retained the dim option.
Has the new LED replacements bulbs advanced eliminating that former problem ?
