Ron: The six pack is the group of solenoid valves that control the flow of air to the air bags. On my 08 dynasty the rear ones are located on driver's side basically near the drive axle. Now I have the Valid system and parts are easily available from Valid

Thanks; I don't need a new light just the gasket so I guess I will have to make one. Thanks for the infol Bob L, 08 dynasty

I have an 08 dynasty. i need to replace the gaskets on my tail lights--they are cracking badly. The parts list my taillights as TYC 11-5008 and 5007. Not sure if that is a chevy, ford or whatever. Anyone know what gaskets to get and where I might find them. Thanks Bob L, 08 dynasty

We spent a week in Egg Harbour in Door county; lots to do and plenty of good eats from Sturgeon Bay all the way up to Bailey's Harbor. Very relaxing. Beautiful scenery Bob L, 08 dynasty

Steve: Where did you get the control module?? Bob Lobrano,08 dynasty

I had to replace two ride height valves on my 08 dynasty; one went out while travelling and the passenger side rear dropped like a rock. I also had to change a 6-pack becase of a bad solenoid valve that controls the levelling; coach kept dropping on one side over night. Based on your observation about good operation in manual mode i feel pretty sure that the solenoid that controls the air flow to ride height valve is bad. It is an easy fix. Bob L, 08 dynasty

Do you have a part number for that plastic sensor?? I am getting ready to install a metal atank and never really thought about the grounding problem Thanks, Bob L, 08 dynasty

I am unclear about the location of your jack stands; did you do all four corners at one time or just the front, then the rear; I understand the procedure with the 3 ton jack just unclear about the jack stands. Thanks, Bob L, 08 dynasty

Mike: Can you provide a link to your you tube video??? Thanks, bob L, 08 dynasty

Thanks Tom for the info and great story. Guess I forgot to put my finger over the "weep hole" and continue greasing. Bob L, 08 dynasty

Tom: Just curious: how did you "goof" greasing the slip shaft. I may be doing something wrong all these years. I have a hard time getting the grease to " slip" out of the end but I know it is going through the grease fitting. Sometimes I put in a lot of grease but never see it come out of the end of the joint like all other grease joints. Bob L., 08 dynasty

You are correct; I forgot the problem of new data cables and how to route them. And not interested in blue tooth . Thanks again Bob L, 08 dynasty

Thanks Tom. Appreciate the info. Sometimes I think having each unit with independent thermostat like here at home would be the better option. I will cross that bridge when I get to it; hopefully in the not near future. Bob L, 08 dynasty

Tom: Here is the question I have: When I replaced my units and put in the conversion board I kept the boards that came with the new unit. Of course those were geared to the CCII thermostat/controller. Now if my five button goes out and I have to replace it with the new CCII thermostat I assumed all I had to do was take out the conversion boards and replace with the original boards that came with the unit (which were set up for the CCII). The units are daisy chained and I assume the communication cables would be the same. Am I correct or out in left field? I respect your opinion as much as I respect the guru Frank. I know the day is coming when I will face the Five button failure. Changing the boards themselves is no big deal; have done all three already. Thanks again for your insight. Bob L, 08 dynasty

Tom: I replaced a Penguin on my 08 dynasty last summer. I have the 5 button CC. I was able to replace the control board in the new unit with a conversion board that I located at at a Camper world in LaFayette, La. If one can find that conversion board, the 5 button CC will still work. I did the same thing on the bedroom a/c about 3 years ago. However I understand those conversion boards are hard to find. I know at some point (if I live long enough) I will have to "bite the bullet" and change over to the CC2.

Thanks Daryl. The only thing I would have different is I have no shelf above the toilet. Is the switch plug and play with existing wires or did you have to run new wiring?? Looks like you did a good job and congrats. Bob L, 08 dynasty

Daryl: Let me know how the Dometic fits; I assume it is a macerator type. Also I found a controller(p/n36387) on E-Bay but they wanted $420.00 for it. No thanks. Every other place I tried same thing--out of stock. Mine ain't broke yet been using it for almost 15 years. But I like to think ahead; know what t do if it fails. Thanks. Bob L, 08 dynasty

My 08 Dynasty has the Thetford Tecma; the build sheet says it is a model 36500. Daryl is that the same model as yours?? Fortunately I have never had a problem but you now have me worried as we are getting ready for a trip. If the switch malfunctions I got problems cause there is no way to manually flush. At least that I know of unless someone on here has a suggestion I just am amazed that Thetford can't give you some guidance. If you find a solutoin please keep us posted. Bob L, 08 dynasty

I had the same problem and it was a wad of paper stuck in the macerator blades. Had to take toliet out, remove the macerator and unclog it. My symptoms were the same as yours--push the button and nothing. bob L, 08 dynasty

Mike: Beautiful job. What brand of pressure pump?? Bob L. 08 dynasty

Thanks will give it a try Bob L, 08 dynasty

THanks Frank. That is it. I saw "yellow markings on mine but everything was painted over. Now, quick question: My air intake filter bracket was broken off and the air intake hole was blocked with dirt (mud daubers I suspect). I took the pump apart, cleaned it and ran it. It seemed ok so I put it back on and connected the air hoses. I have a new pressure switch. However, the pump runs continuously without shutting off and I am wondering if maybe it just isn't putting out the pressure it should. And I started the bus and filled all the tanks before I tried it. I assume the aux tank fills also when the main engine compressors runs. Any thoughts before I spend the $$$ to get a new pump. Thanks again, and Merry Christmas to you and Family. Bob L, 08 dynasty

Tom: I have the same setup as Frank. I have a drain valve at the rear of the coach for the aux tank; and, of course a drain valve for the rear tank. They are right next to one another on the drivers side. To make a long story short, I pulled the pump; tried to get the paint off with acetone but that did not work because the info was printed on a label and the label was messed up with the paint and everything dissolved with the acetone. The motor runs but no air; so I took the pump (not the motor) apart and lo and behold the intake hole was blocked solid. Looked like dirt dauber dirt. I cleaned it, put it back togetner and now working fine. Only problem is the extension where a filter would go is broken so I have no filter. The pump was loose and I think vibration caused thatt damage. Going to try and figure a way to put a screen of some sort over the intake to prevent this from happening again. Any suggestions would be welcomed. Bob L, 08 dynasty Also, I agree with you. I leave the thing off most of time for the reasons you stated I just pull the fuse.. I just hate when things don't work. Bob L

Thanks for all the input. Unfortunately my build sheet does not have the aux compressor listed and, as I said, the info on the pump was totally painted over with the coach was undercoated. I have the Valid Air Leveling System. I was just looking to get the same pump that would fit on the welded platform without having to do any modifications. All I need is the pump; I have an in line pressure switch that is new and all the airline connections. Tom explained the reason for the aux pump. Mine ddid not come on that often. However, its location under the front of the coach made it a prime target for road grime and vibrations. I will check out the Via Air that was recommended by John. And I agree Monaco could have found a better place to mount the pump. Bob L, 08 dynasty

I have an 08 dynasty. My auxiliary air compressor is shot. Unfortunately I cannot read the make and part number cause it has been obliterated with undercoating paint. Anyone have that info; would save me a lot of searching. Thanks, Bob L, 08 dynasty
