  1. My link above in a previous post depicts a special control board which no one has mentioned or whether it even exists. I think that PC control board is the "Missing Link" to getting his heater to work. The 12 VDC needed to fire up the furnace comes from THAT PC control board, NOT from the thermostat wires. I have attached a PDF file of the wiring diagram for the thermostat he has and the control board that is located somewhere in his coach. 3107904.025_DometicDuoTherm3107541.009-3107541.017-3107546.008AnalogTermostatControlKits_SPL_AMER(en)_2000_01.pdf
  2. I would look for a Dinosaur Control Board. They are built better than the OEM ones.
  3. RV type absorption fridges are great for "campers" who only use their RV a few times a year. As a previous Full-Time RV'er now Part-Time I couldn't get rid of the NotSoCold fast enough. Our Windsor has the Samsung RF-197 which has been working great ever since it was installed in 2012. The new owners love the coach. Our 2006 Dynasty came with the Samsung RF-197 already installed so we didn't have to go through updating to a residential fridge again and by the way, we will NEVER go back.
  4. Would they carry the normal size that fits most of our coaches, 295/80R22.5?
  5. Maybe this link will help! 3107904.025_DometicDuoTherm3107541.009-3107541.017-3107546.008AnalogTermostatControlKits_SPL_AMER(en)_2000_01.pdf
  6. That is the "baby" model with a 5-gallon boiler tank. The controls for that model are different than the larger boiler tank models. Download your operator's manual and read through it thoroughly to completely understand how it operates. Download the parts and service manual also while you are there.
  7. The diesel Webasto SHOULD not come on with the diesel switch set to OFF. Someone has messed with your Aqua-Hot. Depending on your model, there maybe four thermostats, two for the diesel and two for the electric assist. OR you may only have one set that controls both the diesel and the electric simultaneously if you have one of the "Baby" Aqua-Hot models.
  8. I had the same experience with a NOCO charger that was on the Dynasty chassis batteries. For whatever reasons, it would shut down after so much time, never did figure out how long it would stay active. Recently replaced it with the Smart Charger posted above in a previous post. Someday I will spend some time to figure out why they installed the charger in the first place. Most likely there is a problem with the chassis charging system somewhere.
  9. If you have given ANY thought to purchasing a set of Rettrobands versus Tyron bands, you had better read this thread over on iRV2.com. https://tinyurl.com/4eehjhv3 It doesn't matter HOW many versions that they come out with, they will never be on one of my vehicles.
  10. If all else fails, you may have to remove one, measure it thoroughly, then talk to Koni to see what they have that matches your dimensions.
  11. I guess since there is a fan then it makes more sense that it would push air out instead of pulling air in. That's how the twin cooling fan works on my 2006 Saturn Vue.
  12. The fan should pull cooler air from the outside through the condenser pack versus pulling hot engine air from the engine compartment through the stack. The latter is not a logical solution for cooling off a condenser pack. Just my opinion.
  13. I have this one which I really like using as it is a 3-stage charger that will not overcharge your battery. Amazon - https://tinyurl.com/3e5edzbr
  14. He stated that his turn signals do work so he has two Flashers, one for the turn signals and one for the 4-ways.
  15. The very first thing to check is a failed Flasher which should be located under the front dash somewhere.
  16. When I placed my order there were 22 in stock. I ordered 12 which left 10. I guess he realized his mistake by then and simply took the easy way out for the vendor and cancelled.
  17. Ivan, The eBay vendor cancelled my order for nebulous reasons and refunded my money. No Water Miser Caps.
  18. Congratulations! You are getting a great coach at a very reasonable price. A few years back I had looked at a 2005 Exec with a DD engine on consignment, but it had been abused and the owner was not willing to compromise so I walked away. It was a Blessing in disguise as I ended up with exactly what I wanted last year when I purchased the 06 Dynasty Countess III. Congratulations!

  19. I wonder if Van will chime in here with his expertise and opinion as he did a post some time ago about shocks. Here is one post by Van. Here is a link to the entire Koni thread. Koni Shocks - Chassis, Handling, Tires & Brakes - Bill D’s Monacoers
  20. I could not justify spending almost $70 for shipping two packages of RV Dyna Beads for my steer tires (which only last for one time) to Florida from Nevada versus spending $220 for a set of Balance Masters at Josam's that will last forever and can easily be transferred to another coach. Try transferring those beads after the tire tech has manhandled the tire when removing it. Plus, I believe the Balance Masters do a much better job of balancing than the Dyna Beads especially not having to mess around with the valve core, etc. when using Dyna Beads. Simply, my opinion.
  21. The switch needs to be wired in the NO position. The Linemaster switch allows you to choose which way you want the switch to work, NO or NC. No need to fret over switch parameters as this switch will handle exactly what your dash switch is accomplishing.
  22. My Engine Brake has a short delay before it kicks in. Are you saying that some owner prior to me possibly had the ECM flashed to cause this delay? If so, where would I go to have the delay removed from the ECM?
  23. This switch at Amazon should work fine for your purpose. I purchased one to use with the Blue-Ox TruCenter and wired it NO. Then when I stepped on the switch it would be in the closed position. https://tinyurl.com/3j5xyhyk
  24. OMG! My mistake! I should get my readers replaced or have my head examined. I totally misread your post. My apologies! 😇
