Was thinking about replacing the propane gas cooktop with induction type.  Has anyone done this upgrade?  Rich

I would like to see it also.  Rich

I disassembled the sun visor end caps and found a broken plastic part from the housing.  Glued the broken piece and the visor works great.  It probably broke when the unit fell from the mounting above the windshield.

Internal filters.

It's time to change fluid and filters in the reservoir.  I believe the fluid should be Dexron 3 ATF and filters Fleetguard 87610A.  I have never done this service before and any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I wanted to replace the bedroom slide seals since I get a small water leak on one side of the slide out.  What type of seals should be used since the lounge slide out seals are "P" shaped along the slide walls and the bedroom are flat?  Also, any recommendation of supplier of these seals?

Thanks - Richard 

I wanted to get a few ideas how to re-mount a flat screen TV in the front lounge area.  I would like to reduce the size of the original mounting box so it is almost even with the cabinets above the windshield.  Thanks for your ideas.  Richard

I have the Powervisor Maxi  windshield sun visors and the drivers side will not come down.  It sounds like it is jammed and will have to remove it and troubleshoot.  Has anyone torn one of these units apart to repair?  When the time comes to replace what other options would you suggest for a sun visor?  Thanks  Richard

Tom,  Is the ECM the electronic control module for the Cummins engine?  What I was thinking about the Intellitec disconnect was to install it just to isolate the chassis battery from drains like the  ECM.  Where you suggesting the Blue Seas ACR for the same application?

Thanks Tom for responding to my post.  For me to charge my chassis battery when the genset is running I disconnect the generator wire from the BIRD and that closes the relay.  I was looking at the Intellitec BDX Battery Disconnect System as a possible solution.  The relay would isolate the battery by pushing a switch and would eliminate the manual disconnect switch in the electrical compartment.

I found out that my chassis battery was dead after trying to start my coach.  We have a 2002 Monaco 40 PST and the 8D battery is only about a year old.  Unfortunately we store our coach without power and have to start the genset to charge batteries couple times a month.  I do have solar panel for the house batteries charge but found out the line going to the chassis battery didn't have a fuse installed.  Any ideas to reduce the parasitic draw of the battery?  Rich Cole

Somewhere in Iowa I lost the left front hubcap for my 2002 Monaco Windsor.  Where can I find a replacement?  Rich
