Mike in Va

I have a 2001 HR Ambassador with 2 slides. They are on the drivers side and the larger slide includes the living room and kitchen. The small slide in the bedroom is for closet and a few drawers. Both of the slides are raised. One side under the smaller slide has come loose, so I'm going to install guardian plates before it gets worse. I can see that there are rollers because of the small marks on the floor and marks under the slides. I was looking for help from someone that can tell me how I can get access to the rollers so I can check their condition ? They are installed under a 3 inch platform that holds furniture etc and I was hoping not to have to tear it apart to get to them. I'm thinking of installing the roller plates that mount under the slides as well. Any pictures or advice would be great. Thanks for the help.

Close to Richmond or Williamsburg Virginia

My frend just removed an Dometic refrigerator model RM 2820 from an air stream he is restoring. He said it worked great when he removed it. I was wonder if anyone could use it as is or for parts? Its in very good shape and I would like to give it away instead of throwing it away. I live close to Richmond Va. Its taking up room in my garage and I need to move it soon. Could text a few pictures if needed. Thanks for the help.

Thanks Tom. I'm away from home for a few days but soon as I get back I'm give this a try.

Tom I did unplug the compressor because I was afraid it might blow a fuse if it tries to come on because it's locked up. The 20 amp fuse label hvac in the front left side compartment is good. There is no current going to the control knob on the dash panel. I took the vacuum generator off and cleaned it good. Noticed had plenty of air coming from my air tank to the generator. I think it's a matter of finding why I'm not gettting power to the control switch. Still looking for a fuse or switch I can't find. Thanks

Thanks for the pictures. I checked the 20 p fuse and it was good. I'm going to buy me a wire tracer and see if that will help. Like I said my air conditioner isn't working. The pump is seized up and was.like that when I bought the mh. Could that stop the heater and vents from working?

Robert, I took the vacuum generator off and cleaned it good. There was a little bit of stuff inside it and the electric solenoid worked well also. I checked the air pressure before I took it off and had plenty of air pressure. I do have a problem with 12 volts going to the heater switch. It's never worked since I've owned the mh. The fan wouldn't come on and the meter shows no voltage getting to the heater control switches. I have checked every fuse and switch labeled air cond or heater and haven't had any luck finding the bad one. The air compressor is locked up so I up plugged it. I'm not interested in getting the air conditioner to work just the heater to work. Any help would be appreciated.

Your picture show what mine looks like. I had a picture and wanted to post it but not sure how to attach it. Thanks for every one"s help.

I was able to find my manual and it show a red tube coming off to a vacuum generator. I've been looking for a pump. Thanks so much. I' m going to try and clean it out. Do you still have this system on your mh? Don't want to change the whole system unless I really have to.

Ray the red hose going down and towards the back of the coach is wrapped in black plastic and is included in a 6 in ball of wires. My question is where does the red tube go? Is it hooked to my front air tank?

Thanks, I'll try to take it apart and clean it.

Hey Ray I can't seem to locate the pump that is included in your response. I do have a small black metal box above the vacuum bulb. The rubber tube came out of the bulb into the box and there is a 3/8 red rubber hose that comes out and go back towards the rear of the coach. Could this little box contain the venturi vacuum generator you spoke of?

I have a 2001 HR Ambassador with the 5.9 cummins. I think the vacuum pump has stopped working. I was hoping someone could give me an idea where the pump is located and the fuse that its connected to. I see the vacuum storage bulb is in the front compartment . It has one black hose coming out of the bottom of the bulb and going down under the coach towards the passenger side of the generator. It's raining today but I was want to get out tomorrow and start looking for it. Thanks for the help.

Thanks for the info and picture. I'm going to try and get a better look at the pump in the morning. I was thinking it was the original gasket for the pump. I know they has a history of problems, but I've never worked on one. I'm hoping a little tightening will stop the leak.

I by passed the original lift pump on my 2001 HR Ambassador with a 5.9 cummins about a year ago with the air dog unit. I am heading to florida and stopped for the night and noticed the old lift pump is leaking diesel fuel. When I installed the air dog I by passed the old unit and left it in place and just capped it off. Not sure how fuel is getting into the unit unless the electric pump is causing the fuel going back to the fuel tank to back feed to it. I just had a hip replacement 2 weeks ago and not sure if I can get down inside the engine bay and try to tighten the bolts to the pump a little. Now the leak is just a few drops ever now and then, I like to know how bad can this leak get and does anyone have a picture of the pump to help me locate where the bolts that hold the pump on is located. I looked in the engine bay and can see the pump but now much else. Thanks for any help.
