  1. SeeLevel is not your solution as it uses your existing gauge sensor to display the results on the SeeLevel panel. The only people I would trust are ones that deliver propane to residential and commercial customers. They are the most knowledgeable about propane systems, etc.
  2. Greg, Good decision! I am guessing that the rear slide did not close tightly enough especially with the red pool noodle still attached and sticking out. Not good when it is raining as it rains a lot in Washington as you already know.
  3. Yes, the solution is in the download section of this web site.
  4. There have been recommendations made already in various threads on this site. One place for sure is Source Engineering in Oregon. They know all about our Monaco coaches inside and out.
  5. SilverLeaf is a good monitoring system for the engine and transmission while driving. There are other systems that are good for monitoring the power, battery and charging systems when stationary. Do your research and due diligence on all of the systems to learn as much ad you can.
  6. Once the battery voltage gets too low your engine and transmission ECM's will start shutting down. One of the main reasons I use the SilverLeaf VMSpc system so I can keep track of vital engine and transmission data.
  7. Both Jim J. and I are not impressed with the quality of the radiators that they built for our 2002 Monaco Windsor's. If at all possible, I would try to use a more reputable shop. However, if you do decide to use CG&J then just be aware of what Jim & I have experienced with our radiators we got from them.
  8. Adam, I drove another 5000 miles from northern British Columbia to Gadsden AL without losing another drop of coolant. The CG&J service techs were skeptical about reusing the new coolant I had installed but after it was removed and inspected, they agreed to use it over again. I am a FIRM believer in using Irontite Coolant Stop Leak versus other brands.
  9. If you can't find a replacement, possibly have one 3D printed.
  10. Aren't the ones discussed above in this thread the same fixtures? I guess no one has these in stock. Not surprised. You may have to wait until they have resupplied their stock shelves.
  11. When I had a new windshield replaced in my previous Windsor, the folks at RV Glass Solutions in Lakeland FL stated that the gasket did not need to be replaced. However, they did install a new rain drip cap that had cracked and deteriorated over the years. That was installed over the top of the gasket.
  12. Put in two bottles of Irontite Stop Leak then drive to heat it up and circulate the solution. I have used it twice when I had my Windsor. I always carry two bottles just in case.
  13. Thanks, Dan. I have taken that route in the past and your right it is a nice alternative to the hills in VA.
  14. Thanks, Dan. We will be over on I-81 taking that to I-77 then down to I-95 in South Carolina.
  15. Well, after attempting a temporary repair, no joy! I have the area stuffed with Bounty "picker uppers" and will monitor the towels after each day's drive. I have enough Bounty to drive across the country, LOL. Plus, I always carry a supply of TranSynd fluid for topping off. Luckily the fill tube is accessible from the rear of the engine compartment. We will be leaving for Florida on the 12th of October.
  16. Possibly you are confusing their Power Watchdog with their Voltage Boosters. The Hughes Voltage Booster which this thread is discussing has no ability to shut down power to the coach when the neutral is missing. Here is the link to their voltage booster. 50 Amp Voltage Booster with Surge Protection - Hughes Autoformers They sell other devices called Power Watchdogs which will monitor the quality of the shore power. Power Watchdog - The World's First Smart RV Surge Protector - Hughes Autoformers
  17. If you happen to be in the Orlando FL area, call Barry at Josam's where you will find the very best price in the entire country.
  18. Chuck, I thought those were auto-resetting circuit breakers and not fuses as such. Photo attached.
  19. That space in the 02 Windsor is in the driver's side engine compartment where the Glendinning Cablemaster is located.
  20. I did that with my Windsor back in 2010. It was an easy task as the shore power cord came into the coach at the drivers rear corner. There was a junction box located back there where I separated the shore power to install a receptacle on the incoming side and a plug on the outgoing side. Also, there was space on a frame member where I installed a SS plate for the large plastic battery box which my Voltage Booster sat in. I made up a marine vinyl cover to keep it somewhat clean. I also installed the EMS-HW-50C in a hidden compartment under the shoe storage bin in the rear closet routing the cables out the rear where everything else was located. I installed 50 amp ends to the cables. I was now ready to plug everything together in proper order. Shore power going first to my VC-50 Voltage Booster, then to the EMS-HW-50C and finally to the junction box connection.
  21. It looks more like a bulb replacement versus a whole new fixture.
  22. Jim, I came to the same conclusion as you regarding the transmission cooler in the CG&J radiator. The temps with the original radiator were always lower then after the new radiator was installed in 2015. Not impressed with CG&J at all. Their reputation is overblown in my opinion.
  23. Hard to solve a problem with misinformation or lack of accurate information. It may come down to condensation, corrosion a bad relay or something else being that they ARE electrical slides. For those that have very limited knowledge of their coach's systems I would highly recommend finding a really good shop or mobile TV tech that can come directly to your site for troubleshooting and repair.
