I have a Monica Signature noble lll and it had all double Payne windows. A couple in front failed . Monaco wanted $750 plus shipping for one. The other was not available. I replaced them with laminated tented glass at a reasonable price. 
A lot of the new motor homes no longer use thermal windows account of the failure problem . Recommend  you don’t replace the windows with thermal glass. Because of the thickness of the thermal panels, there is not that much heat or AC loss.

Not sure what section this should even go in...lol

We picked up our current 09 Signature last Aug. After getting a few minor bugs worked out I started having issues that I have yet to be able to figure out, or even where to take the coach to have it looked at. This started last November after running from AZ to OK. Everything was fine when we shut down and sat for a couple weeks. When we started back up the trouble began and has not stopped.

When I drive the ATC, Check Engine, and Check Transmission lights come on, Sometimes they come on all at once, sometimes it will just be one of them, sometimes none. They will randomly blink in no specific order. Speed or RPM does not effect anything. Obviously when the ATC light is on I have no cruise control or engine brake. They just randomly blink on and off, stay on, stay off......who know what they will do. When they do this the transmission shift panel either goes blank (not showing gear or gear selection) or I get the two horizontal lines with the diagonal line through each. The couple times I have been able to pull the codes via the transmission selector it says low voltage.

I have checked every ground I can find, I have been under the coach and unplugged the trans ECM and checked it. I have checked everything I know to no avail.

I have the Chassis Multiplex system. Would this be an issue with that? Is it a possible ground that I can't find somewhere? Where do I take it to even start to troubleshoot, knowing the multiplex system is basically a dead horse in finding anyone that can do anything on to it or to diagnose it. I just need a starting point on trying to figure it out. When all of this is blinking and beeping nothing is effected other than the cruise and engine brake. No codes, no loss of power/speed. This tells me it is purely electrical/electronic in signaling and not true faults or issues.

Any help is vastly appreciated. We love the coach, but damn if this aint frustrating.

Does the speedometer stop working and does the trans act different shifting gears?

I wish!

Mine is a little more serious than that. Over the course of a couple of weeks, each of the buttons on the keypad started to not beep when pressed. Since then, the key FOB began doing strange things, until all it will do is lock / unlock the entry door.

I don’t know what to suggest. My fob has always worked. But when I pushed the buttons didn’t beep. Only the door bell worked. 
I only have one fob and would like to get another to match the original. However, I did buy another but it will not pare to the unit. Possibly a different fm frequency.

My entire TriMark system has failed over the last 4 weeks, up to and including all bay door actuators!

Tech support at Trimark blames it on the way Monaco mis-wired the boor bell!

I just reset mine. Get the manual and reset it to the original default setting. Then set your desired code, etc. Try it, it will not cost you anything.

Yeah, I'll need to make that modification when my new components arrive.

When I told Kevin at their tech support, that several years ago someone pressed the doorbell button and it kept ringing until I cut the wires to the bell, he said the damage was already done, and it was only a matter of time till that keypad failed. 

I got several years.

I want to thank everyone for their input on programming my door keypad.

first the module for my keypad is in the panel beside the passenger door.          
I printed the manual sent to me for TriMark and from the directions therein, programmed a new entrance code.

The Bill D’s site is the greatest way to aid in making repairs, etc.

thanks,

Do you have the part number?  I figure it may happen to me and I have the same drivetrain.

Part Koauto 29544139 output speed sensor for Allison trans. My MH has a ISX Cummings 600 hp.  $35.99 purchased thru Amazon. 
it solved a problem that a Cummings mechanic with 49 years experience could not determine was wrong with my MH. His computer indicated the problem was with the adaptive cruise control.

if you get a chance , call me and I will give you more details.

Dave, 904/616-2617

It’s a cheap fix— $35 thru Amazon. $118 from a parts store . I will send you the info later.

I have a 2007 Monaco signature noble lll and I want to know how to program the outside keypad handle. The last time The MH was in the shop they messed up the power to the radios (2) and the keypad access number. Typical experience, the fixed 2 items and messed up 3 or 4. 
Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,

It’s 45 feet with a ISX 600 hp engine.

I don’t know the manufacture of the keypad system

Yes

Installed anew speed sensor on the trans.

thanks to responses from 3 individuals regarding the speed sensors. One of those had the exact problem.

I am going to check it as soon as I get some blocking under the frame . Want to make sure that big outfit doesn’t decide to lose its air when I am under it.

thanks, Dave

Thanks

I have thought of that too, but haven’t checked it . Also wonder if the sencor could be bad.  I have checked to make sure the wires are all plugged into the speedometer.

The engine is a ISX with 600hp. The speedometer doesn’t work and the trans will not shift out of first. Engine diagnostics revealed problem with adaptive crude control. Took that off line but still wii not shift. Restored crude control. Has anybody experienced this situation. Apparently the speedometer communicates with the trans to shift at certain speeds. 
thanks, Dave H
