Charlie 02 Windsor

You got that right ...they take a lot of oil and trans fluid .. but when you think about the cost of replacement, the fluids and filters are the cheap part of it !! If and when you get down to pushing the button to buy ...try to spend at least part of a day in it with everything running to make sure it all works before driving off !!

One thing that I didn't look at when I got this one was the radiator ...look for any corrosion or leaks on it, that was a big one right off, all the other stuff replaced was needed house water pump, basement heater, tires, shocks, brakes and batteries other than that it has been the best rig ! For sure !!

I am aware of the practices of the business, I sold used cars for awhile and know you need to make money .. I had done a lot of business with them ... but more than likely will drop them now You had time to read this and answer it ... congratulations on finding the time to burn !

I know that they are supposed to buy low and resell high ..but that is ridiculous !

Wow ... we all know how the business goes !

lol lol ...I have an account with them and they sent me the message, so I thought I would see what they had to offer !

Has anybody fallen for : Get your fast appraisal from Camping World sales ? I filled out the question parts and got a reply from a salesman who wanted more info on my rig ! So I sent him a more detailed reply on it So on my 02 Winsor with 350 Cummins around 65000 miles on it with new brakes, shocks, tires all new awnings and a long list of other stuff.. He comes back with a high appraisal of 24,000 but more than likely less than that because of the economy ... I told him I had more than that in the upgrades to it and that I would be giving him the coach ... he replied with welcome to the new world !!

Not sure where to post this but just before New years day I lost my daily discussions notices ! How can I start to receive them again ?

Thanks for the reply !! My son is an electrician I will have him check it out and see What kind of a job it would be if I go this route .. again thanks !! Thank you for the info on the Magnums ...I will do some research on them ! I was kinda hoping that I wouldn't need to change things up ... But sounds like either way there will be some changes if I can't find the right one to put back in ! And again Thanks for the reply !!

Well I think my inverter took a dump last week while on a hunting trip! I have a 2002 Windsor with a Trace RV 2012 and while watching a movie one night the monitor board lights started going out, then the lights for holding tanks and propane all stopped working ... the generator was running and keeping batteries charged and the furnace fan was on but nothing else was ..I am just assuming it was it's time to go after 18 years ! ?? Checked the basement and you could smell the burnt electrical from the inverter area ...the light was blinking on it and I flipped it off and that was the last of it !! The tv remained running at the time of all this ...but it quit soon ...now none of the plug ins are hot except one in the basement that works while the generator is running ... and the monitor for the charging system on the panel works . I have found a replacement Inverter (RV3012) is this an ok choice for replacement for what I have or should I keep looking ?

I am not sure if this is what you are looking for ...hopefully it helps ..? I tore my whole water system apart looking for the check valve and found it as I tore the last of it apart !! This is where mine was ...in the water bay where you hook your fresh water hose ... and it had a piece of charcoal from an inline filter stuck in there ...for some reason it didn't have a screen in it at the time but it does now !

You are right ...I bought my replacement from my local napa store ..Hooked it all up and it didn't work,tested all the output wires and nothing ! Took it back and got another, what are the odds of getting two in a row bad ? The third one worked !

So I finally got back to working on mt water feedback issue !! I did find the backflow valve after tearing the water fill compartment apart ..the back flow valve is the hose hook up where you fill the tank ...! Looks like the inline filter on the hose passed a few pieces of charcoal that ended up in the spring of the valve and kept it open, for the money the quality of the filters should be better !!! .....Seems it is always something simple when it just happens ....??

Thanks for the reply ..... Where did you install the valve in your line ? That is another great idea ... Is the pressure regulator on the tee with the blue hose ?

I am hooked up in my drive way at this time .. and I am on my own well and the well pressure is greater than the pump in the coach so it isn't feeding back into my well ! The only way I knew it was have a back pressure problem was due to a bad washer on the hose connection to my outside faucet !
