Ok Jon,
You have all my details on the two 365 tread separations. Let me know if more detail is useful.

Has anyone else besides me noticed the folks that seem to advocate non-slide coaches tend to change coaches frequently? Perhaps it is because they actually think they will find the perfect non-slide coach, when those of us enlightened folks know having slides ends the quest for the perfect coach because we have one.
Count the coaches C bus and Truk have had and see if my theory is correct.

This sounds like a loose neutral on the generator side either in the generator panel or the ATS. I would get it to a tech immediately because losing a neutral is very dangerous and will destroy electronics in a hurry.

What do you mean by “The loaded leg will struggle 5 or 10 seconds and then unload for a while, then try it again, usually the same results”.
I would start by looking for a loose connection or bad breaker on the generator supply side that’s creating increased resistance.

I seem to remember seeing a ‘stealth’ painted entertainer at Mira Loma too.
Anyway, the solid dull paint is not my favorite paint scheme. The white one above looks OK because the stainless is exposed.
I’ve seen several ‘upper-end’ cars painted with the ‘stealth’ gray in California. Not my favorite.
Safe travels,
Mark

Here’s what I have in my notes covering the fan control for DDEC II
Prevost used the two speed fan clutches with the introduction of the Series 60 engines. The first Detroit engines used were DDEC II configuration and had no fan control avaiable in the software. To make it function a thermal switch was used. It was mounted in the radiator cross pipe over the engine. It would turn on low or high speed as the temperature reached around 190 degrees F for low and around 200 degrees F for high speed. See diagram. : This control method was with the power side of the fan clutch. In other words when the temperature reached low set point, power was fed through the switch and down wire 291 to give us low speed. As the temperature continued to rise, the same would happen for the high speed and power was fed through the switch to wire 292 for the high speed. The grounds for the fan clutch were constant to chassis ground.
With the introduction of DDEC3 the present style of fan control was supplied by Detroit Diesel through their ECM.

Are you guys related

Just missed you. We just had a coach leave here yesterday headed to Petoskey, MI that is headed up there to be on display. I could have set something up with the driver if I had known. Sorry about that.

Sensor must be replaced, and 5 years on battery life, yet have seen many go longer easily…

If you are worried about scratching the bolt head just use a big Crescent wrench and put tape on the jaws. In today’s jargon signs of weathering and wear and tear on older vehicles is called “patina” but if you prefer to not have the bumper bolts look dinged and scratched we understand.
-
The bolt size on a Liberty I know is 1 1/2″ to release the XL bumper. It might be the same for your coach. Harbor Freight makes an affordable 1″ socket set that will have the right size if it is a little smaller or bigger.

our progressive industries 50 amp surge protector (Unit is about 8 months old) looks like died (EMS-PT50X) The last 4 days when things start warming up outside and when we have only the fridge on. hot water heater everything else is off .. i get a PE4 code which is low voltage .. i checked with other folks in the Resort and no one else has had a problem .. Last night about midnight with nothing on alarms going off , i find the same fault code .. I know power companies reduce power at night during reduce load times .. we have been at this resort for about a month and haven’t had a problem until this week . It has been Hot here upper 90ies when the coach is loaded up max power usage no problems .. I will try it again at the next resort on Thursday . if it fails again i will try and return it,, when i was asking other coach owners if the had a problem with the power i was the only one . there was a coach owner in a tiffin that had a Hughes power/surge protector. has anyone used one of those and what do you think ?

The Russian emails in our inbox seem never ending. This started just about the same time the bad IP addresses applying for membership started winding down.
We try to be vigilant because we do not want uninvited guests getting onto the site and harvesting email addresses and other information from members. We had that happen on another site when all our private information was sold by the outgoing owner to people that filled our emails with RV related offers and ads.

The comment about the Russians was likely said in jest, but more than twice as many people who attempted to register were not given a password than were provided with a password due to an IP address from an area on the globe that has had a history of hacking, including Russia.
Lately Tom and I are overwhelmed by emails with Russian origin coming into our administrative email address and we can block every one of them, but the following day there will be a new list of Russian emails.
