    Passenger Slide Halfway

    in Body, Awning, Roof, Slides, & Steps

    Posted

    Ron P.  2004 Monaco Executive 

    My passenger side slide only goes out halfway and stop.  

    I had slide toppers put on and it worked fine.   I bought it home from the shop and it worked fine.  Preparing to get my carpet cleaned tomorrow by opening all slides.   Now slide only opens halfway. 

    Full charged batteries and connected to 110-120v power. 

    Any ideas/suggestions?

    We have the same problem except neither of our headlights work.  Our coach had been at Lazydays (Tampa) for two months now to get this problem resolved and fixed.  Must be a really hard job, huh?

    I had a similar problem withmylights.  Don't remember which low beam or high beam but i couldn't get pass inspection.   Replaced the controller, , etc..  I took it to a heavy truck repair shop. .

    The repair shop rigged up something that causes me to now have daylight running lights for my low beam and high beam work as normal. 

    We it turn the key or turn the coach on the lights come on.

    Per JD's request here is what I have so far.  

    Yes, as you can tell by the pictures so far we got a little on the fancy side, but if you ever see us on the road you will know we're part of the group.  😊

    So let me start here, we choose to completely take everything out. Easier to look though the coach at inspection time. Taking guns and or ammo is strictly forbidden. (We didn't want to accidentally leave a bullet laying around) don't think that you can talk your way out of it!

    Right after we crossed over into Mexico we were pulled over to the curb.  We had 4 federales checking the cargo bays & 3 going through the inside looking in every cupboards. After a few minutes they invited the dog in to sniff out any contraband. You would think that we were smuggling some of illegals & drugs back into there country, and they would not  want that to happen.  Then they try to have a nice conversation with you & they can't speak English & we don't speak Spanish. That was fun. 

    Next was the drive to the shop. Wires all over the place. We're 12ft tall. Wires were scraping the ac & vents. We made a stick to lift Wires if we needed it.  I  had my wife walking in front just incase. Only had 1 wire snag for a moment. That one shook me a little but all in all we made it to the shop with out any major mishap. 

    We spent 4 hours picking out colors & some repairs that needed to be done.  Then they drove us back over the border to get our jeep to go home.  You park your get back home car on the American side. $6 for the day. 

    Word of warning don't for get your passports & drivers licenses. Also get some Mexico insurance for driving in Mexico. Even though it's only about a mile to the shop, get it. We paid $27 for the day. If something were to happen regardless of fault you will glad you had it. 

    Not only the paint job they are also going to replace our headliner. 

    You have to remember your dealing with a different culture. You send an email to see how things are going you probably won't get a reply until they actually have something to show you. These pictures are the first reply we got so just be patient and rest assured they are working on it & doing a great job.  I'm more worried about the headliner than I am the paint. 

    Before going down we tracked 4 people down who had there coaches done there. Any were from 4 weeks to 5 years ago. Every one said that it was an adventure but would not hesitate to do it again. 

    4 colors white was done first. Black was the 2ed color. Each time the whole coach has to be re-mask just for that paint. Then 3 coats of clear. We belive that we are pushing the limits for graphics with our job. 

    OK with that said here are the pictures so far. 

    PS. They work on a cash basis. So just get used to the idea, if you choose to do it call me and I will explain how to do it so you won't get into trouble with there government.

    It's starting to get very exciting!  I talked to the guy who did the taping for the Eagle. He said,  the eagle.     Aye Aye Aye lot of work.

    I changed my account from Bob Schmeck to Bob Schmeckpeper  to fix the problem that I was having.  Probably that's why I didn't get it. 

    Thanks for the information.   I am planning to be in San Diego 28 May-5 Jun.  I was going to visit their shop and make arrangements for September-October time-frame. 

    I wasn’t planning to take coach(2004 Monaco Executive) into Mexico in June but drive over.  Good idea or not?

    I sent them pictures and he quoted $14-15k.

    I am located in Wilmington Delaware.   Where are you located?

    I have other questions but I'll wait until closer to getting the job done.

    No power to coach

    Serious help. 

    I went to start my coach this morning and nothing.   I called roadside assistance,  they tried to Jumpstart and nothing. 

    Tech indicated that the batteries have plenty of juice.  No headlights. 

    When I parked,   I just switched off, which was yesterday. 

    Shore power hooked and all that is working. 

    What am I overlooking.   on..

    WaterTank Full - No water in coach

    Ron P.  2004 Monaco Executive 

    Hello.

    Picked up my RV from the shop on Thursday after having a refrigerator installed.   I had it dewinterized.

    Today, I am prepping for a trip to leave in the morning. 

    I cannot get water to flow.  Fresh water tank is full. The green light comes on for the water but the water pump is not cycling or pumping.

    Any ideas/suggestions would be appreciated. 

     

    Thanks

    Dash Fan Motor Replacement

    Ron P.  2004 Monaco Executive 

    I am checking to see if anyone has had the opportunity to change/replace the dash fan motor for the dash air conditioning and heater.

    I turn it on and no response until it gets to high.  Make load squeaking, whining noise.

     

    Any helpful tips would be appreciated.

    Repair or Replace Refrigerator

    in Appliances

    Ron P., 2004 Monaco Executive 

    My refrigerator in my 2004 Monaco Executive is worn out.  I am told that the cooling unit needs to be replaced.   My question is should I replace cooling unit or replace the entire refrigerator. 

    If anyone has had any experience with this,  please share.  If you replaced your refrigerator and it was a good fit, works fine, please provide,  model,  price,  etc. 

    I saw that someone replaced their refrigerator with a Samsung RF18A5101SG. 

     

    I have not used my refrigerator on LP.

    Re-clocking steering wheel

    I need to reposition my steering wheel. As I drive down a straight road my wheel Points to 10 O’clock. 
    The coach does not pull to either side, and just had it aligned when I had the rear trailing arms replaced. I just forgot to ask them to look at the steering wheel location.

    can this be done without adjusting my steering box, like perhaps on the steering column? Has anyone had this issue, and found this can be done?

    I have the same issue.   Answer would be helpful.

    What reservoir tank did you install, do you have a part number or link.   A picture would help.

    What radiator cap did you put back on, the same as what you had or a new one, if so what pressure.

    You say it is leaking from a hose, what hose.  On my surge tank there were 4 connections of hoses, two at the top on the back that were small, one on the top that attached to the fill port where the cap attaches, and one at the bottom that is a larger hose.  Is yours the same, if so what hose is leaking.

    Personally I would not be driving this if it was leaking, if it were to loose more coolant you could be stranded on the side of the road if the engine derates or stand a chance damaging your engine if it didn't derate.

    It appears to be the drain hose.   I will be checking in more this morning.
