    For the Seminar, our thinking has been morning seminar and the rest of the day open. This makes it doable for the wives to come knowing 1/2 the day is wide open.

    I see the new app mentions something about insurance here soon. Does that mean we can get quotes for our insurance too? Tom do you know anything about that?

    Well I got a hold of a new nozzle. Took the unit apart per some kindly provided phone instructions and found the sensor window 95% covered with soot. Cleaned every up and put it all back together. The unit fired right up then in about 30 seconds the pipes started banging. I then noticed the water pump was not turning. Banging must be coolant boiling in the unit due to lack of water flow. Now that I think back that was the original failure mode, banging shortly after unit was started, then it shut off, probably because reaches some temp/overtemp cut out point.

    So next step, to do some diagnostics, I start to take off the pretty stainless steel pump cover that Liberty so kindly put there to make it harder to get to the pump and the outboard two screws come right out. The one on the back inside corner is a frozen and stripped Phillips fastener. Did you know the Phillips head screw was invented for the auto industry so that the driver would cam out of the faster and prevent assembly line workers from overtightening screws and breaking them? But I digress . . . Since it is back in a hole where I can’t see it, I decide to wait until tomorrow in the daylight in which I still won’t be able to see it, but at least I won’t anger the neighbors when I fire up the die grinder and carbide ball bit and grind the head off the screw by feel. I should have become a dentist rather than a doctor, then I could do things like this looking in a little mirror.

    So bottom line my question, since I don’t have a wiring diagram, what suggestions do you have for easy to get to electrical diagnostic points for no Webasto water pump function. Fuses, relays, control modules? My plan was to get to the plug (if there was one under that infernal cover) and see if there was 12V there coming to the motor, indicating failed pump motor, and or try 12V straight to the motor and see if the pump starts up.

    Please point me to where I can see the time period, numbers and types affected. Were new fan clutches for XLs part of the bunch?

    Another thing to consider: For longer-term, unattended storage I make sure to put the inverters in “Charge” mode only. This prevents the inverter draining the batteries during prolonged power outages. This is useful if power outages are relatively common.

    I’d have to look, but I think there is a smaller bolt in the center that needs to come out before the pulley/clutch can come off.

    Not sure what kind of toilet you have. But our Tecma uses a ton of water. Traveling with 5 3 of which are girls we barely make it a day without needing fresh water or needing to dump. However my son and I have gone 10 plus days on the same tank. In our case the toilet is the biggest user of water.

    Just the two of us, with 2 showers each and one dishwasher load 4 to 5 days. Installed a chrome ball valve on shower so can turn off and on to conservative ( intermediate ). We wear both raised on well and septic so conserving was mandatory.

    I don’t think a purge every few minutes is normal. The purge valve assembly on the dryer may need a rebuild.
