Hi Frank. My coach is just a house multiplex. Intellitec.

We have been busy for the last week and I could not work on the Dynasty. It has been in my shop all this time. We were gone for 4 days so I used the saleman switch and for the first time. and also turned off the battery disconnects. Returned today and turned all the switches back on. Everything around the dash lights up . But none of the light switches in the rest of the coach work. No slides and no lights. I immediately thought of Tom's comments on the salesman solenoid. I think all of this is related to my blinking lights(As Tom stated!!). I will open up the RRB tomorrow and see what I can find. Where is that solenoid.? It cannot be the 2 on either side of the Big Boy. While I am in there will make sure all terminals are tight

Lately I am getting frequent regens. . This happened once before. Cummins discovered that somehow the software was not letting the regen to continue. They corrected the issue with the ECM and did 2 forced regens. After this all was good. However that was about 7 years ago. I thought that with these code reader devices I could check for a hidden code and try cleaning the DPF. The alternative would be to take the MH to Cummins ar a good shop and see what they can find.

Has anyone here tried one of the many scan tools that will work on an ISL. I see units that will do a forced regen for just over $200. I need that capability. Thanks

I will be 80 this late spring. I still do some work on the rig. Nothing that involves heavy lifting. The minute you say "I am too old" will lead to the end. Sitting around doing nothing is a bad idea. .

The recently released tst 770 comes with a repeater. I thought the repeater had to be mounted closer to the rear. Not so. This system allows you to mount it anywhere out of the elements. I had one of the original pressure pro units Same as the Doran. It was a bad desig. Lots of false alarms. Then bought the old style TST. It was no better. I saw the new TST at Q. Rechargable battery. Huge color screen. Takes normal batteries. But expensive. I am wating to hear from new users.

Does it have a salvage title? I wonder why they are selling it without further info? Somone could pay big bucks and be in for a big surprise.

Thanks Tom. Where are those 2 solenoids? In the rrb? Ido have the electrical diagrams but if it is complicated my rain cannot handle a good diagnosis. I was going to do the common things first. Connections in the closet Maybe check all the grounds. The only lights in the closets are green. Don't have time to fool around for a few days. Will post any outcomes Thanks

I have had frb board problems. But that was when the coach was 2 years old. Tweaked the hinges and adjusted the latch and have not had problems since. When I get to Mexico will do a hydrometer and load test on the batteries. I noticed that one of the4/0 ground cables was hard like a rock at the battery end. Could be full of blue corrosion. I have all the components to make new cables. Will be back in Mexico Thursday and will check everything. The lights have been on for 3 hours and no flickering but the Tecma struggles and then the lights dim. Thanks for the tips. Glad my system is Intellitic.

Batteries are 3.5 years old. I have a load tester in my shop and will check that out.

Thanks Frank and Tom. This problem began when we were in Q. First one leg went out on the pedestal then the power went out. I realize that is the 110 side Happened 3 days in a row. do not like fixing things on the road. We are at the KOA in Tucson for 2 days and then back to Mrxico where I am more comfortable doing repairs. I did find that one of the heavy ground cables os really stiff at one end. O am going to cut the outer rubber to see if the cable is corroded. I have lots of cables and ends so will eventually replace all of them. I will check the battery cells with a hydrometer and load test the batteries. Even my Tecma toilet caused the lights to flicker and al.ost turn off. As long as nothing gets worse I will tackle this in a few weeks. I might even check to see which module has the toilet and check the static voltage on the buss bars. I

2008 Dynasty. Recently the ceiling lights are blinking. I thought it was interference from the flourescents but turning those off did not help. I tried shutting off some of the lights. Still no change. Sometimes they will be OK for a few minutes and sometimes they actually turn off for a split second. Very fast blink. Even the fantastic fans will slow down. When this coach was new we started to have a oroblem with the bathroom lights. The flourescents would turn off at random. We were in Indiana and went across to Michigan where 2 former Monaco techs had opened a shop. Monaco had a problem with some wires that were a small gauge. They fixed that and all was good. I really do not know where to start. I checked all the bus bars in the closet with the Multiplex and wiggled all the molex connectors. I am worried it could be the inverter or the Multiplex system. I know that this park has problems with the AC power. I have a digital readout on one of the receptacles and it is fairly steady. Jumps up or down 2 volts. I checked my battery voltage and it is fine. Any help appreciated.

Tom 48. Which dealer in Q is the multi line shop? Thanks

Both the 210 and 211 are now available. But call the mfr. first for a price as the online price for the 210 is very high. Just 2 months ago it was around $350. Now $100 higher.

I do not know the exact difference but they cannot be substituted. You can call the mfr. of these systems. They no longer provide tech support but can answer simple questions.

I think the op needs to find a better shop. $15,000 for the listed work seems very high.

If your smart wheel needs a new controller the sm210 is available. If you have the 211 they have been on BO for well over a year.

Some of the filter mfrs. have kits to remote mount a filter. But in this case you probably need to build the kit. You may need longer hoses and some angle fittings to get the lines to the hatch. On our 08 both fuel filters are mounted in the hatch. No need to get underneath. Just reach in and your done.

There are 2 types of check valves. The swing valve uses a flapper. The other valve is a one way check valve that has a spring and plunger inside.

Thank you Chuck.

Chuck. I appreciate your help but Sony has been out of the rv bu systems for many years. Although one could use a different monitor Sony uses a special connector. Rvcams sells a Voyager monitor that with minor filing will fit in my dash. They provide all the cables to adapt. But I do not understand how the Alladin data gets to the monitor.

Chuck. There are no Sony monitors. Somehow I remember someone posting on this subject. I have a new voyager from rvcams that others have installed.

It is a vcb-62mh. Thanks

I have my new replacement for the Sony bu camera monitor. There is no aux. Input. How does the data from my Alladin get to the new monitor? Thanks

I received my new monitor and cables today. I amin q and will not start on this job until late Feb. But I noticed that RVcams states that the new monitor does not have an aux. input. How does the signal from the Alladin get to the monitor? The power wires from the new monitor are different colors. Thanks
