https://www.monacoers.org/discover/81/Monacoers - Daily UpdateenI am wanting to replace both my old AC units on my 2006 Beaver with a ducted system that I would like to keep. Looking for advice on which units to choose. I am considering the Turbro and the Furrion Chill Cube. Can the Turbro units be used and keep the ducted system working? I see that Furrion has a special adaptor kit at and additional cost to adapt it to the ducted system. Any insights or suggestions are welcome. I also have a hydro hot system that is used for heat.Fri, 15 May 2026 22:14:04 +0000I recently bought a 1993 Monaco Dynasty with the 6C8.3L and Allison MD3060. The manual gives no information about the spin-on pressure filter in the power steering hydraulic system. This is a second filter in addition to the big black reservoir cannister filter on the very rear. This filter is mounted outside the rear frame on the driver's side, and as it's totally rusty I wonder if it's ever been replaced. I see a lot of forum posts about a similar filter in this location but they all refer to a physically larger filter, a WIX 51759 or equivalent. Those filters measure about 5" diameter and 7" long. Mine is more like 3.5" diameter and 5.5" long. Can anybody identify this thing and give me a part number so I can replace it with a new one?Fri, 15 May 2026 22:37:34 +0000We've owned our coach for six years and the side-by-side residential fridge has always reformed perfectly, last trip for 4 days was the week of April 13th and all was good. Got home and unloaded the usual stuff, emptied the fridge, etc.. Moved the coach from the RV lot where all power is turned off, and plugged into my 50A receptical, turned on the AC's then the fridge. Everything has been on for about 7 hours, I opened the fridge, the lights are all on and there is no cold at all. The switch on the fridge is ON, the lights are on, etc., but no cooling. I turned the breaker on and off, everything seems normal but no cold. Does anyone have any idea what to check next?Fri, 15 May 2026 22:49:18 +0000Would help to know the model number of your Whirlpool fridge so we can get more information to you.Fri, 15 May 2026 23:00:14 +0000Contact one of our members here who also owns a 93 Dynasty. He will know your answer. @dl_racing427Fri, 15 May 2026 23:08:52 +0000Victron makes excellent equipment, but you will not have access to factory support. All support will be through dealers, so choose wisely. If you would like a recommendation, I can provide one - but he's in the Coco Beach, FL area. As far as 240vac, you might want to look at the Victron Quattro series. I have no experience with the Quattro, but I do have very good experience with the Multiplus (granted in a marine environment). I was considering upgrading our Magnum MS2812, but it is still working well. I just purchased a spare, factory remained unit (for a unbelievably good price) so I feel I'm ok staying with Magnum for now. I also recently installed a BMS and upgraded my AGS to AGS-N. All equipment is playing nicely with my 1200ah's of LifePo4 house batteries. FYI, This weekend I will add an additional 100amp 12vdc charger wired to my engine heater outlet to cut my generator run time down. This was a recommendation by another member of this forum. I wasn't sure it would work with the MS2812, but according to a few users - the two chargers work together without any issues.Fri, 15 May 2026 23:09:52 +0000The Serial number is GC5THGXLB01Fri, 15 May 2026 23:17:57 +0000I helped a friend with about that vintage Whirlpool. Using the internet I did a bunch of searches and one common problem is the start capacitor. Fairly cheap and readily available so my friend went and bought one and I installed, did not fix the problem The next common failure is the circuit board, more expensive then the other component but he ordered from Amazon in case it didn't fix the problem. Only catch was that there was a pretty elaborate installation process to set it up. I sent him a video on how to do it and he installed the circuit board and followed the instruction and it worked. From memory the board was ~$150. So do some searches and see if you can pin point the problem.Fri, 15 May 2026 23:30:55 +0000Check the following: I had the same issue note the burnt out circuit. I replaced it found on Amazon been working perfectly since. Also I updated the relay start capacitor on the compressor connect on the three pins.Fri, 15 May 2026 23:42:35 +0000This whole thread goes over what you just asked.Sat, 16 May 2026 00:13:38 +0000Great information, thanks for sharing. Is this board located in control unit inside the fridge or did you have to remove the fridge? I also mispoke on the number I gave, that was the Model # not the Serial #.Sat, 16 May 2026 00:14:28 +0000I’ve been using an additional 100A charger for almost 20 years…11 in our 04 Dynasty and now 8 in our 08 Navigator to reduce gen run time. With both chargers running it will reduce the 100A down to 85+ amps. I would recommend buying the PowerMax brand because several people have reported poor service from the $40 cheaper knoxoffs.Sat, 16 May 2026 00:28:37 +0000Darren, would you have the part numbers that you ordered from amazon?Sat, 16 May 2026 00:31:55 +0000The control unit located inside the fridge. Few screws to remove drop down panel board located on the right. The part number is W10366605Sat, 16 May 2026 00:36:20 +0000Yep, I bought the PowerMax based on your suggestion. It was on sale (Walmart) at a nice price, with free shipping.Sat, 16 May 2026 01:30:15 +0000Any idea's out there on how to run a communication cable from the front AC to the rear one in a 2006 Monaco Diplomat PDQ?Sat, 16 May 2026 02:31:35 +0000In my 05 Dynasty the ductwork is all one piece, maybe you could consider that, don’t know if it’s a good idea or not….Sat, 16 May 2026 03:07:36 +0000I would verify the cable is bad first. Most times it is only the connectors. If you have to replace the cable, maybe you could attach the new one to the old one and pull it through.Sat, 16 May 2026 04:22:10 +0000If you redo the connectors, be sure to find the 12 volt fuse that sends power down them or, well you will be finding the 12 volt fuse that supplies power down them. You mileage will vary on which cableSat, 16 May 2026 10:39:01 +0000Thanks to Jim and Darren, my parts will be here later today, Jim, could you please send me your instructions and video? My email is lovelessneil@gmaiol.com Thank you for your advice!Sat, 16 May 2026 12:19:16 +0000Keep in mind there are SEVERAL different ways OEMs designed their ducted systems, so for an AC maker to have a one-fits-all duct adapter kit (IMO) would be doubtful. Some modification to their kit is undoubtedly required. NOT plug n play! This is where an enterprising 3D maker could put together plug n play adapters, or at least sell the one that worked for him. Yeah, Monacos are snowflakes, but I wonder how many different ways they ran the roof ducting? And then there's other OEMs . . . - bobSat, 16 May 2026 13:02:36 +0000Thanks for the feedback fellas, lots of good info on this topic. Looks like I will have some fabricating to do while installing any new brand if I choose to keep using my ducted system.Sat, 16 May 2026 14:12:18 +0000On the road, I use RVHelp.com. They find a local mobile technician to come to you. I last used them in Corpus Christi when our entry step would not retract.Sat, 16 May 2026 14:18:48 +0000I looked up the control board number for the model you posted and came up with this PS332569 Did a search and it says that the control board does not need to be programmed. It is plug and play. There are videos out that show the process but it is just a matter of unplugging the wiring harnesses, remove the board, put new board in and reattach the harnesses in the correct spot.Sat, 16 May 2026 14:25:59 +0000You should test the continuity of the cable, like Myron says the ends can be replaced. If the cable is bad the best way to replace it is through the duct work. The cable ends are flipped from end to end, attached is a description right out of my manual. Get the correct ends and tool to install the ends. Dometic-Air-Conditioner-Installation-WM cable description.pdfSat, 16 May 2026 14:32:52 +0000
