Lets have a mini at Ft. Wilderness!

I’ve done the same. I have to feed the house and the garage so I use a power outlet box with two 50 amp receptacles. I plug the house in one and the garage in the other.
If I am running emergency power using my bus generator it is only going to be for critical items such as the well pump, refrigerators, furnace if necessary and some outlets. That is because of the 50 amp limit of the buddy plug. We likely would move into the bus because we would still have ample power for lights, A/C units, etc.

I have used the bus ginny for power a couple of time in the last couple of years. I made up a cord that would reach the buddy plug to the 50 amp outlet that I plug the bus into when home. So I am backfeeding from the ginny to my house. Since this not a auto setup I make sure the main breaker on the electrial panel is off so I am not back feeding into the electrial grid when I hook up to the bus.

Tinman, I received a voucher for the truck load of post holes. It said that they could be picked up at the Grand Canyon storage yard. Jon said that I could just drive over to the Grand Canyon and lift them out and stack them as high as I wanted to.

Be careful Tim,

Geo, Glad you made it back to Vonore safe!!

Dick,
Closed cell foam is what you want. Open cell is like a sponge…….. I don’t know if Bill has the gaskets. I would bet if they exist, he can get them…

Karl,
Only update at this point is I had another very positive conversation with very Senior People in Prevost. They called me looking for additional information and documentation. I have forwarded them my original work orders/invoice as well as pictures of the parts that came off my bus last week. They are taking it very seriously now and indicated they will be getting back to me as soon as they have it all figured out. I will post the update when I receive it.

It turns out it was the first solenoid valve that controls the air supply that was the problem. I removed the coil and valve, The valve seat and o-rings looked ok so I proceeded to open the valve itself. I did not really see any contamination and the plunger and spring seemed to move freely. I cleaned the plunger seat with alcohol, reassembled and applied aux air pressure – No more leaks. Hmmm.
Not sure this is a permanent fix. I’ll give Prevost a call on Monday to order a spare valve and coil if available. The parts book does not show individual valves and the whole 5 valve manifold is $360 online.
Thanks for everyone’s help. I learned a lot from your responses, Jon’s article on this site and the Prevost Level Low webinar.

Dick,
I replaced one unit. As they said, it dropped right in and the remote is an exact replacement. My bus bar won’t run a cruise air without shore power or the genset. -

Mr.Mark,
I think I have everything in good shape now. Ohhhhhhh I’m sure I am going to need a set of batteries but I think Tom don’t have enough space for the money so if I pay cash I am going to wait a while till he makes room. Although an IOU don’t take up much space. Once I got the breaker changed and plugged in the coach, that evening everything looked back to normal.
