They are normally called 6-Pack Air Manifold. Both HWH and Valid uses them but they are not interchangeable between brands. Each company should be able to provide them. I purchased a used one from Visone RV to rebuild over next winter. I recently saw a new one for sale on Northwest RV Supply in OR. https://www.nwrvsupply.com/product/hwh-6-solenoid-valve-air-leveling-manifold-rap32798ap32798/

In your research on this site, did you happen to run across the wiring diagram which includes the water pump controller? If, not then I would look for it in the files section and download it to review the wiring schematic.

Back to Josam's today. After getting home last Thursday after all of the above work was completed, I ran the slides out then tweaked the coach for level ever so slightly in the front and turned everything off. Went upstairs and got ready for work. Within one hour or so the drivers side had lost all of its air and was completely flat on the air bags. Not a Happy Camper at all. Called Josam's on Friday but Barry was off until Monday. Called Barry on Monday and made the appointment for today to see what the hell happened. I will post what they find and the outcome of my third visit to Josam's. Barry did mentioned that he believes that my coach has two Ping Tanks in the front and they may be the problem or the hoses going to the Ping Tanks. I didn't even know that it had ping tanks and frankly I don't remember any one here having posted about problems with their Ping Tanks or air lines involving them. More to come on this problem.

The two main types of connectors found on our Monaco circuit boards and other places are either Molex or Mate N Lok.

On shore power & dead cassis batteries/no start w/ boost

I am removing the HOT Big Boy and installing the Blue Seas ML-ACR in its place. No longer have to deal with having something that hot in my Rear Run Bay (aka RRB) or not working requiring to R&R it every so often. -
Brake signal for trailer brake controller
Dr4Film replied to Pudgy Camper's topic in Electrical Systems
I installed a 6-Way Trailer Tow on the rear of my Previous Windsor in addition to the 7-Way that was already there. My Saturn Vue has separate Turn and Brake Lights and I wanted to keep them separate. I simply tapped into the Factory 6-Way to accomplish that task. I also added a 12 VDC Charge wire to the 6-Way on the back of the coach. The existing 7-Way had a convertor to combine the Turn and Stop lights. The only thing I added to the existing 7-Way was a Blue Electric Brake wire as I wanted to tow a 30 foot trailer or just my car. -

Dang varmints! Hope that it ends up to be something simple. -
Allison 3000 acts up

Is it possible to shrink-wrap the connector? -
FYI.... I am here at Josam's today having the balance of the required work done on the remaining air bags that needed to be installed, Leaking HWH 6-Pack Valves replaced with new o-rings, new front Ride Height Valve and the HWH Air Compressor Platform removed so I can rebuild it this summer and install it in a more accessible location. They will combine the air lines that would go to the compressor platform together so the leveling system will only work with the tank air. I should be good to go for many years to come with a fully operational HWH Air Leveling System that will actually hold air.

Have you read through the NotSoCold Service Manual Ice Maker Section to review the Troubleshooting steps?

The scissor arm on our 06 Dynasty is just loose enough to allow me to lock the door open by sliding that little tit under the top arm so the arm is perfectly straight. The door will stay open unless it is very blustery outside and the wind catches the front of the door. I am happy with the way my scissor arm operates. I must be one of the lucky ones.

Shouldn't have to remove any upper panel if it is installed like all of the other older Sharp microwaves. Remove the two grease screens. You should now have access to the head of a very long bolt that secures the microwave to the rear mounting plate. You may also have two hidden screws that need to be removed, one on each side of the microwave . You need to look up into the same opening where the screens were removed. Look closely on each side to see if there are any sheet metal screws holding the sides of the microwave to the adjacent cabinets. Have another person ready when everything has been removed as that microwave is very heavy. Slowly lower the front to a padded cover on your counter. The lift the back edge off of the back plate, plus unplug the unit before lowering to the counter.

Screen door latch replacement
Dr4Film replied to Freedomring's topic in Interior & Exterior Care & Renovations
It would have been helpful if you had included a photo of your current screen door latch. However, this is the one that is in my previous Windsor and current Dynasty. https://tinyurl.com/29394kpm -
strange "clunk" below floor
Dr4Film replied to Jim McGarvie's topic in Chassis, Handling, Tires & Brakes
If you happen to be anywhere near Orlando FL sometime in the future and no one can pin down the source of your 'clunk", I am positive that Barry (shop manager) from Josam's will know exactly where it is emanated from if it has anything to do with any chassis component. They have a special machine where they can get below the chassis in a pit while the coach sits on special shaker pads to observe and identify any loose components. -
I use this 12 VDC splitter for powering my devices. Purchased at Amazon. https://tinyurl.com/2wvkjvaf

I would do whatever you recommend to your coach. We all have to make our own choices and decisions, then live with the consequences. However, what you are recommending is fundamentally incorrect for an RV. I had a RV shop in Scott LA install the Samsung RF-197 in my previous Windsor back in 2012. They closed off the roof and side vents completely as they are sources where road dirt and dust can enter the fridge compartment. That fridge is still working to this day 12 years later. The Samsung residential fridge receives its cooling air from the bottom of the fridge to cool the compressor and evaporate any water in the collection tray from defrosting. It then escapes around the top and sides, hence the reason for clearance in those areas. Those two vents are needed for any RV Absorption type fridge but are NOT needed for any residential. In fact, if left open to ambient air you risk dirt and dust entering the fridge compartment which will be impossible to clean plus the fridge will stop functioning when the outside air temp drops too low. Another effect that will occur when the outside air temp in very high is your rooftop AC's will have to function more to offset the hot outside air entering the coach. I guess we will have to respectfully agree to disagree.

Engine Monitoring - Aladdin, ScanGaugeD, BlueFire, & VMSpec
Dr4Film replied to Rick A's topic in Audio, Video, & Electronics
@Scotty Hutto That is an awesome glass dash display you have created. If I didn't already have the SilverLeaf VMSpc, I would definitely be looking at installing the same system you have. -
Based on what I know NOW, I will be shopping every time my policy comes up for renewal no matter what it is for. I am so fed up with these companies gouging the pubic unnecessarily. Especially the ones that never submit any claims or have accidents or moving violations. The ones that should be paying are those that seem to go scot-free which then increases every ones rates. I can only imagine the number of people here in the state of Florida that drive their vehicles with out insurance when it is MANDATORY to have insurance in order to register their vehicle. There is no follow-up to remove vehicles from the road when people cancel their insurance. I guess the DMV doesn't talk to the local law enforcement in order to enforce the laws.

You most likely won't find one at a salvage yard unless you purchase the entire seat. Have you tried Veurinks RV and Northwest RV Supply? Also there are various RV furniture places located in and around the Indiana and California areas.

Muffler 2003 Monaco Dynasty with 400 ISL
Dr4Film replied to Lionel's topic in General Motorhome Discussion
Our founder, Bill Duckwitz, always preferred the Areo mufflers and had one on his coach. https://aeroexhaust.com/c-1389194-mufflers.html
