Non-operating step well cover resolved. I had left one of the switch module cables unplugged in the module grouping near the step cover switch. According to Frank McElroy these module switches are like Christmas tree lights if one goes out the rest of the modules in the chain won't work. Since plugging the cable in other switched functions are now working. Thanks Frank

The step cover on my 2009 Dynasty quit working. Where should I start to resolve issue?

Debbie, great news! Congratulations on a full recovery. Hope you go out for a really nice celebration dinner. Ray and Tam Murley

We have decided that the time has come for us to stop motor homing and are looking for some selling advice. How do we establish the value of the coach and thus, a selling price? What are the best ways to sell/advertise the coach? Thank you, Ray and Tam Murley 2009 Dynasty

Tom and Frank, thank you for your responses. I have contacted Coach Net and they are working on finding a mobile mechanic. The concern for safety while driving has me concerned. Hopefully, a mechanic can fix the leak and/or give me OK to drive.

Tom, thank you for your response. The issue started a couple nights ago when we heard a loud air pressure release coming from the engine compartment. Since then the coach looses air and droops down on the driver’s side. The auxiliary air compressor for the air leveling appears not to be working. I have attached a photo from the generator compartment. Is the the yellow arrow the aux air compressor and the part with the red arrow the pressure switch?

I am experiencing a slow air leak in my 2009 Dynasty that results in the driver's side dropping down. The air compressor that normally keeps the coach level does not appear to be working. The engine air compressor will air up the system and the Power Gear system will level out the coach. However, the air system looses pressure resulting n the driver's side lowering. When I restart the engine the air gauges are registering empty and the engine has to air up the system. I am traveling in the Birmingham, AL area. What resources are near me to diagnose and fix system? Thanks, Ray Murley 2009 Dynast7y

We replaced the shower sweep seal on our 2009 Dynasty from Shower Enclosures of America in California. phone: 909-605-1571 ext 3110 Ray Murley 2009 Dynasty

I had Dazzling Detail removed the ugly diamond shield from the front of my 2009 Dynasty. What a difference!!! They washed and waxed the coach and the coach looks fabulous. Thank you to those that put us onto Dazzling Detail. They did all the work at our storage lot. The shield removal was $1200.

I have had two occurrences of no start condition on my 2009 Dynasty 500ISM engine. 1st occurrence was a blown fuse in the rrb. Replaced fuse with a slow blow fuse. 2nd occurrence, several years later, turned out to be the starter which Cummins diagnosed and replaced. The engine now starts the best it ever has. Good luck, Ray Murley

Gunnyclark, thank you for the information. I passed in on to my friend.

My neighbor at my RV storage lot is having a starting problem with his 5.9L Cummins engine and the issue has been traced to the engine ECU. Any thoughts on where he can buy a rebuilt ECU or have his rebuilt? Thanks, Ray Murley

My check valve was/is brass. Since I am second owner—not sure if was OEM

I had the same problem on our 2009 Dynasty and found a replacement check valve on Amazon. With Amazon Prime I had valve in two days. I also found the Pex fitting to the check valve inlet was protruding into the check valve housing keeping the check valve open. Installed a coupling (from Lowe’s) between the Pex fitting and the check valve that solved the problem.

The cockpit seats on my 2009 Dynasty are: Kustom Fit, phone 323-564-4481 and web site www.kustomfit.com Hopefully, they can help if still in business.

The kitchen faucet on our 2009 Dynasty is made by Danze. I have two numbers for them: 888-328-2383 and 877-530-3344. They replaced our handle because the hose pulled out and they replaced the cartridge. They also replaced the bathroom shower head (the paint had worn off). There was no charge for any of the parts. We did pay shipping. Hope this helps. Ray Murley 2009 Dynasty

Hi Bill, The blow out happened on the Indiana turnpike. I took the coach to Elkhart Collision for the repairs. Yes, the tires were Goodyear G670 295 and I replaced them with Michelin 295/80R22.5 XZA two weeks later. Yes, I just had the Tyron bands installed three months earlier at Alliance in Wildwood, FL. and was very grateful for having them. Ray

DavidL, Cummins has not been able to start the engine yet. The coach was towed into their shop with a no start condition. They checked the batteries under load and found the voltage dropped to 7 volts during cranking. They put new batteries in and found the engine turned over too slow to start. They surmised the starter was bad and have ordered a new starter. Hopefully, a new starter will resolve the issue. Thank you David

Jim Bob, thank you for your reply. There is no electricity where the coach is stored. However, the solar panel on the roof keeps the batteries charged. Whenever I go out to the coach I check the battery voltages with a volt meter and there always up. Ray

Scotty, thank you for your reply. I will try the Star Tron Enzyme. Sure a lot easier than draining the tank and having it cleaned. Ray

My coach (2009 Dynasty, ISM engine) is at Cummins for a no start condition. Cummins addressed a hard starting condition in February 2020 and found the fuel filter was plugged up. They cut the filter apart and found it was black. Replaced filter and engine started. I have since used a fuel biocide to prevent algae buildup. If they find that the filters are again plugged, what are my options? Can a shock treatment of the biocide get rid of the algae? At what point does the fuel have to be drained and the tank cleaned? Cummins has found the chassis batteries and the starter are bad and are being replaced. Hopefully, those actions will resolve the no start problem. Thank you, Ray Murley 2009 Dynasty

My coach (2009 Dynasty ISM engine) is at Cummins because of a no start condition. Cummins found the batteries under load would drop to 7 volts not enough to start the engine. Under no load conditions the batteries show full charge 13 volts. What causes batteries to lose capacity under load. In the 8 years we have owned the coach we have replaced the chassis batteries five times, normal life is 20 months with longest being 27 months.. Cummins has determined the starter is bad and is in the process of changing it. What may be causing the short battery life? Thank You, Ray Murley 2009 Dynasty

My coach (2009 Dynasty, ISM engine) is at Cummins for repairs. The tech found a bracket in the engine compartment that failed the weld to the chassis. Cummins wants to reweld the bracket to the chassis. What precautions need to be taken to prevent damage to the electrical/electronic systems? Thank You, Ray Murley 2009 Dynasty
