RVSSNAKE

Our was in the fuel filter.

TSD Open Roads is what we use.

Circling back around to this topic l posted back in March. I was able to put a few minutes into troubleshooting and found it was an easy fix. I started with the source of control and removed the switch plate from the dash. It was readily apparent that the wires had been shaken loose from the terminals on the back of the switch. I reconnected them and guess what, it worked. All the suggestions were great, but I guess the best thing to do is the KISS method and check the switch at issue and make sure the wires are even connected first. Thanks everyone for the suggestions, problem solved.

On our 2000 Diplomat there is a filter on the passenger side of the engine and one in the drivers side bay with air conditioning coils and air dryer. That is a 8.3L engine though. Your 5.9 could be different.

We have the same on our 2000 Diplomat. I didn't find it till the second year of ownership. It too looked so dirty like it had never been changed. I would not think it to be the last filter in the line as there is another one on the passenger side of the engine that is likely the last filter in the line on ours. Yours may be different being a year newer.

If it was a Sharp R1870 these should be the dimensions. Outside Dimensions: 29 15/16” (W) x 16 11/32” (H) x 15 9/32” (D)

Unfortunately I don’t have a picture and won’t be to the coach till May now. There are a couple of other 2000 Diplomat owners on here maybe we’ll get lucky and one of the post a picture.

Thanks Bill, the step does extend and retract when the key is on and door is opened and closed. Is there a way to test the switch with a meter if I pull it out of the dash?

Thanks, I don't have one of those on our coach for the outside step. That switch on our controls the step cover inside the coach. I did not. Good idea, I will check that next time I am at the rig. Thanks.

I believe you are referring to the red step switch by the door. Yes I do know about that one and it no longer seems to matter which way that switch is positioned. Thanks,

We have developed a new issue with our 2000 Diplomat that has me baffled. The step will not retract unless the key is in the on position. Yes, I have flipped the red switch by the door it still will only retracted if the key is on. Any ideas as to where to start looking would be appreciated. Unfortunately I won't be able to try any troubleshooting until late May when I am back to the MH but if I could get direction from the vast knowledge base here that would help. Thanks,

Ours is a Tuft and Needle. We bought it right after purchasing the motor home and liked it so much we bought one for the house. It is a little long but I am 6' 2" and didn't want my feet hanging off the end so we haven't bothered to cut it down. Could be cut if we wanted too.

We use the 50A inline Power Watchdog also for about 2 years. It has so far never failed to let me know of an issue at the pedestal. Good luck,

Greg, Thanks for the update. Would love to see your pics when you get them taken. Let us know how it goes because I had looked at that system as well. Good luck.

I doubt you are going find access from the passenger side as all our plumbing is on the driver side. I believe to access the tanks and current wiring you would need to remove the wet bay panel. Maybe someone with a 2000 Diplomat will chime in. I am pretty sure our layout is different from Dynasty’s and Signatures.
