  1. To accomplish that task, you need to have a set of electrical diagrams which you can download from the Monacoers site. Then start tracing where your power is correct and where it has failed.
  2. When discussing any Aqua-Hot issues it is mandatory to post what model we are working with as there are major differences between the models.
  3. A photo of your shore power outlet and how it is wired would help out. Does your coach have an EMS wired in prior to your Transfer Switch such as the Progressive Industries EMS-HW-50C? If not you need to get one!
  4. Godspeed my RV friend! Enjoy your forever travels with our Father.
  5. If anyone has just a used Pressure Pro Pulse Monitor they would like to sell, I am in the market for one. Don't need sensors!
  6. Possibly your crank arm has striped somewhat and needs to be replaced. I got my crank arm from Rome Truck Parts. http://rometruckparts.com/
  7. Try Happy Campers tank treatment.
  8. I would contact Josam's in Orlando to see if they would do a chassis inspection. They will not do anything with the power train. You would have to use a place like Cummins or someone else that is familiar with a Cummins engine and Allison transmission. Otherwise, you can try the NRVIA for certified inspectors.
  9. @Bruce S If your control board fails, a very valued member here has designed and built a new style control board for the Magnum Opus. His name is Paul Whittle. There are a few parts still available like seals, etc. but they are getting less every day. The best part is that these high quality toilets seldom fail. I put one in my previous Windsor and it is still working today. I never had to replace any part from the day I installed it in 2010 until the day I sold the coach. The new owner had to replace the control board this past year and he purchased it from Paul.
  10. Repositioning the tires is too costly and could possibly damage the tires more than the benefit. A short 50 mile drive is far better as it exercises many other components in addition to the tires.
  11. I have the same identical faucets in our 06 Countess III which we are very happy with so no plans to switch. However, thank you for the advice and warning in case there comes a time in the future where I need to remove them for whatever reason.
  12. Did you look in the classifieds for an ad? Personally, the side view cameras are a waist of money and time unless you have a DVR device that records the video while underway in case there was an accident. I installed a very expensive set of new Ramco In-Vue Mirrors on my previous Windsor that I got off of eBay really cheap. I found that looking at the camera monitor was distracting and reduced my ability to keep my eyes on the road in front of me. It was far more useful to glance over and use the mirrors to see what was at my sides versus the camera monitor. However, my Windsor did have a DVR recording device so it wasn't a complete waist of time and money for me. I was towing a 30 foot cargo trailer at the time which had four video cameras that allowed me to see each side of the trailer, the rear of the trailer and monitor the cargo inside of the trailer.
  13. @Joint Venture The Block Heater Switch on your dash is a 12 VDC switch. Therefore it is NOT wired directly. There is a relay hidden somewhere, most likely in your bedroom that controls the 120 VAC going to the outlet in your engine compartment. The Windsor has it hidden behind the Intellitec EMS Control Board and the case for the circuit breakers. I haven't had the need to go looking for the relay in my Dynasty as I really don't use that outlet in the engine compartment.
  14. The Block Heater Duplex is located in the engine compartment. It can ONLY be located there. Search that area throughly.
  15. Great tip but with a word of caution for those that have a MSW Inverter. Electric mattress pads and blankets don't play well with MSW Inverters. In those cases, one can only use them while on adequate shore or generator power. Then make sure to disconnect them from the outlets BEFORE switching power sources or shutting down 50 amp service from shore or generator.
  16. Hard to help someone with the limited information that has been provided. That's why photos really help in situations like this one.
  17. Re-read his very FIRST sentence in his initial post. That explains it all. Basically, hot air (aka heat) blowing fine from the heat ex-changers followed by cold air blowing. Simple explanation, boiler fluid too cold. If you don't have the diesel burner on so that the primary heat source can maintain the boiler fluid at temperature, you are going to end up with cold air and cold water. The secondary heat source simply cannot keep up with the demand by itself.
  18. Robert, Scotty posted a few posts back that he prefers the Southwire 40100 over the ESCO LPTBRD Transfer Switch due to a possible mechanical mishap with the neutral switching correctly when going from shore to generator and back to shore power. My previous Windsor has the ESCO Lyght LPTBRD and it will be 23 years old this fall. It is still going strong. However, I was always careful when transferring power sources. My Dynasty has the Southwire transfer switch model 40260 which was installed just prior to my purchase of the coach.
  19. Tom, is the set that you have a Bluetooth version? You weren't able to find anyone to install it for you?
  20. ESCO Lyght LPTBRD Transfer Switch is the one most recommend for the lower end coaches.
  21. JD, I totally agree! In fact the lighter the paint scheme the less Thermal Checking it will have. My 02 Windsor was terrible for Thermal Checking but my 06 Dynasty has very little only because of the paint scheme.

    Faucets

    Never heard of that brand of faucet. I stick to either Moen or Delta faucets.

    Faucets

    There are plenty of YouTube videos showing how to change out a Moen Cartridge. I had to change a cartridge in both the kitchen and one of the vanity faucets this winter in our Dynasty.

    Nothing special about these faucets. Choose a replacement that you like that will fit the holes in your Corian Vanity Top.
