I’ve had success ordering replacement male & female Molex connectors to solder onto the CB & re-pin onto the cables. https://a.co/d/dhA1AwP tool: https://a.co/d/bTZ1lop

Does anyone know the amp draw of that rear-mounted inverter cabinet fan with the 100°/90° snap disc? John ’06 Knight 40DFD ’06 Honda Pilot EX-L

Frank, I can’t seem to find the “defroster fans” up by the windshield. They are two-speed fans with three wires, controlled by two “on-off-on” switches on the dash in front of the passenger seat. Searches only reveal engine cooling fans. Sorry my signature didn’t go through: John Van Doren ’06 Monaco Knight 40 DFD

I found that Monaco “hid” three or more fuses in different places. One on the 12v panel below the main 120v CB panel in the rear bath, one in the front run bay beneath the driver’s seat, and one on the Norcold circuit board. There was also a 120V tube-type fuse on that board for the electric heater elements, in addition to one CB labeled “Refrigerator” on that main 120V CB panel. Good luck!

Is your fridge in a slide-out? Mine was, and I found a loose molex connection where the fixed wiring goes to the flex wiring to the slideout. It was under the false bottom of the cabinets under the dinette table. Under the subwoofer, if I recall correctly. So not a fuse, but rather just a bad connection.

No apology necessary. Mine does not have an inside view & I wish it did. Is your inside camera in the dash? I’d like to see it, & add one, possibly using the A/V input, for whenever DW is out of her seat. To respond to your original post, let me suggest you check the 6-pin cable, where it attaches to the monitor cable (as camera one or two, depending on your setup); or at the rear camera itself. Those original cables have been prone to failure. A new 60’ 6-pin cable runs $52 @ RV Cams. Unless you find the rear camera is faulty, you may not need to upgrade. They no longer make or sell the 8464M. You may be able to order the 10” 1044M, but be aware it lacks the motorized camera controls. good luck!

I don’t understand your post. What do you mean by “inside” and “back-up part”?

On my 06 Knight 40DFD I upgraded to the 8” Color monitor 8464 quad view, allowing connection of my Garmin GVN53 (remote) GPS as camera 2. I use the Cameras 1 & 2 Split View with GPS on the right and rear camera view on the left. BTW: you may not need a new camera. My intermittent “blue screen of death” was traced to bad power and/or ground connections. The original Weldex cables have also had issues with lost signals wherein the image would grey out— rather than turn blue—and flicker. I may replace the 60’ cable if I can figure out the best path from rear camera to the dash.

What are the dimensions of the access panels on the 08 Dynasty?

I’m sure you’re aware that Cutler-Hammer is part of Eaton; so perhaps they—Eaton—can answer your question? i will following in hopes a useful answer appears.😊

Can you not just replace same contactors, rather than another brand?

Wonder if contactors from another Southwire ATS (not necessarily a combo surge protection ATS like your 40250) might be an option.

I dont have the answer, but the OP was asking not about a replacement ATS, but rather if one could replace the OEM contactors with another brand. Has anyone done that who can provide an answer? Meantime, I’ve had some success giving my 40250 a good thump to get the contactors to work.

I found a rare Pioneer AV receiver Model VSX-S520. The “S” is for slim (wide, but not tall). Although physical media is old school, I paired it with a slim, wide Samsung 4K BluRay player that we haven’t used in years. Model # not shown; again that’s an option, not required. Note I widened the cabinet opening.

I use ScanGauge D on my ‘06 Knight, but cannot find transmission temp gauge. Someone @ ScanGauge suggested finding another diagnostic port where the trans temp may reside. Anybody know where that may be?

I may have that one! Will check when I can find it.😜

Rick, thanks. I’m told that the “charge only” setting is a misnomer, in that it will allow the inverter to provide any power the batteries can’t. I’m not sure about that. There is a device that serves as a timing relay which allows either the inverter/charger or the alternator to charge one bank and then the other. The alt light/alarm only comes on if I am already running the inverter, and turn on the generator to power the AC, and then only after both have been on a while. Enjoy Gillette. See you in Indio in January.

Thanks Rick, Glad to know that it’s the second source charging issue if I turn on the generator for roof AC while the inverter is on for the fridge & basement ice maker while on the road. Does that mean I should turn off the inverter while the generator is on?

What is the controller style and part number you need? I replaced one of my two controllers from the original one-button style to a newer two-button style. I was told to jumper the two sensor leads to yield a green light. I have purchased a second two-button controller but have not yet installed it. So I have one & maybe two) of the controllers you need. Again—style and part numbers would help. I have seen new Tecma Silence Plus toilets online for $1200-1400, but replacing the controller(s) would be so much more cost-effective.:

Yes, I have used them—better than crimps on our rolling earthquakes!

Had the same problem in my ‘06 Knight, except that I also had no 120VAC when on shore power! Checking the clicking, I removed the dead front panel from the main breaker panel, removed the 4-pin molex connector from the board and found burnt connection. Burnished the connectors, put it back on the board and viola! all lights working on EMS and full power in coach.

Ours is a 2006 Knight. The rear closet has stair-step ledges at the rear and the floor is factory carpeted. Not sure there’s enough space for a second hatch.

OK. Understood. TY

You said upgrading 7710. Upgrading to what?

I’ll check out shipping & get back to you. what’s the zip code?
