  1. Do all of the above and touch grind to bare metal as near as possible to area to be welded for ground clamp. Watch for burning under-cote and plastic air lines if your doing it yourself!
  2. I only can find fuses and relays for high beam headlights in the front driver side run box. Is there another board that I am missing somewhere. Have pulled bulbs out and checked filaments in bulbs, both appear to be ok. Have not separated bulb from wire socket as yet because not sure how to disconnect from wiring harness. Any advice appreciated!
  3. I just recently had to replace pass side seal. There is no evidence of a seal leaking on the back side of your hubs that I can see. Mine was oil soaked all the way around back side of the brake and drum. If you ever wondered how much of a vacuum is created at back of coach, I had oil on top of roof on rt. rr. corner coach! Not to mention the toad. My neighbor who has a mobile OTR on site alignment and brake, suspension business repaired mine and wouldn't take any money for it. So can't help on the cost of repair. Don't over-fill the lube!!!
  4. I have towed a 2010 GC for over 40,000 miles and have never experienced the wobble that many have talked about with newer model Jeeps. That being said, does that mean newer model Jeeps have electric power steering. Maybe I need to re-think the urge to upgrade!
  5. Hi Bob! My name is Darwyn and I have a 06 Dynasty with on and off air problems so have some experiance enough to be dangerous to myself and those that might listen. I might have some advice for you on some aspects of your coach. I live in Brooklyn Park, MN. 612 309 7351
  6. What we have here is every acrylic solid surface fabricators worst nightmare! High heat cycling, thermal contraction and expansion of up to 1/8" when using in just the cook-top area. Then introduce vibration, flex and shock, the propensity for failure is very high. I am absolutly amazed of the durabilty and fabrication stands up to the riggers of RV use. I fabricated and innovated methods and techniques for most of the major brands of acrylic manufacturers and was certified in all of them. Look under the back of your countertop and should be able to see what brand it is or go and look at samples in cabinet, floor covering, home stores to determine the brand that you have by looking at patterns that match yours. I highly recomend using a qualified fabricator. Most major cities have someone who is the go to guy for the major manufactures for warranty repairs. Warranty on residential applications is like ten or twelve years depending on the brand. This is not a bad hair cut once you screw it up with the wrong repair, it doesn't grow out! I sold, fabricated, installed and yes occasionally repaired acrylic and laminate countertops for thirty five years. Good Luck with whatever you choose to do! Side note: Correct adhesive sets up in about an hour and has a open time of less then five minutes maximum!! Sorry about the length of comment.
  7. Exceptionally well written and spoken! Or as they say "nailed it" Thank You!
  8. Has anyone taken appart the camera mounted under the mirror on a Monaco Dynasty Coach (06). The small four fasteners what looks like cap screws are notscrews or bolts. Are they pop-off covers with screws underneath?

    Towable

    I too have this system. The EMS or break-away tank has to be mounted in or on the towed vehicle. I went a couple steps farther and added a air regulater to the air cylinder to avoid locking up the toads tires after installing brake pressure gauge in the coach and seeing 60 to 90# brake apply pressure in coach. I set the max pressure in toad to 40#. I also tapped into GC brake light switch wire to a small LED light mounted with vel-cro to wind shield to verify brakes are applying. Toggle switch under dash. Have about 40,000 towed miles on this application, it has worked flawless. I thought that I read where there are only 2 or 3 states that don"t require brakes with break-away feature including Canada on towed vehicle!

    Towable

    What are you using for a brake system?
  11. I believe the only thing 110 volts on that refer. are the electric heater coils (2), everything else is 12V.
  12. Do you have the high temperature cut off switch which cuts off 12 volt power to Norcold 1200 series. Also there is one for sure and maybe two fuses in black plastic box on rear lower left side of refer. which controls 12 volt power for control panel on front of refer. No lights on panel, refer does not run on LP or electric without 12 volt power. Go on to u-tube on how to reset high temp. switch with a magnet. That patch fix by Norcold is very susceptible to moisture especially when washing! Somewhere around here I have schematic for a jumper wire to bypass high temp. switch. I don't recommend using this patch. I believe that they only catch fire on LP when ammonia is leaking in gaseous state. Hope some of this helps!
