  1. I was doing some maintenance today and never saw this before next to my hitch. Looks like an air line maybe for a brake system? If it is an air line I think I’m going to try and trace it back and disconnect it. I already have slow air leaks and want to eliminate potential problems.
  2. It was after I got home and the temperature was 60-65 outside and everything with the Aqua hot was off and the zone pump was running.
  3. Just got back from a trip and my Aquahot diesel wouldn’t fire for the first time. I had the same scenario as Venturer where it started the blower but wouldn’t lite and after a minute or two the diesel light would go out. When I arrived home I started to check into it and found one of the zone pumps was running with all the Aqua hot switches off. I tried pressing the reset button on the control board but it didn’t seem to do anything so disconnected from AC and turned my house and chassis mains off. After a few minutes I turned everything back on and the diesel burner fired up and went through a full cycle and shut off. I think my board might be going bad not sure. One thing I was amazed with was one night it got down to 30 degrees. I put the rear and bathroom zones on and left the front off on the Aqua hot furnace. With just the electric it kept us warm and was cycling on and off during the night set at 70. I didn’t think it would keep up but it did just fine.
  4. If anyone is looking for a direct replacement halogen bulb for the Docking lights this one fits perfectly. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07M9ZZMC8?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details
  5. Are you sure it’s the window seal? The roof clearance lights are known for leaking. If it’s the window seal you can use clear Pro Flex for a temporary fix but your going to have to get the seal replaced at some point. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001FC98X2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1
  6. When I first bought my Dynasty the front driver side leaned after 15 min. I went to Josams and they replaced a hose and an air bag. Then the passenger side started leaking down slowly….probably was always leaking but slower so I never noticed it. A year later went back to Josams and had 3 air bags replaced and everything seemed ok for a short time. Passenger side started leaking slowly again so this year I went back and they found another problem up front and fixed it. We camped for a week and all was good then I came home two weeks ago and parked it at our lot. I went over yesterday and guess what passenger side was down again. I have been under there so many times spraying for leaks and have replaced many fittings myself as well as Josams fixing it and still this persistent leak. They have checked the 6 packs and not found a problem. The rear has all the original air bags and never leaks only the front passenger where all the bags have been changed as well as hoses and many fittings. I guess I’m just destined to put my blocks of wood between the frame as I have been doing since I have owned it.
  7. When you say nothing works I assume your blower motor doesn’t come on either? The control panel works off of a vacuum and has a vacuum pump in the generator compartment. If your pump isn’t working none of the controls will work. If your dash blower isn’t coming on then it could be the control panel. The panel on my 06 Dynasty is an early 2000’s Ford. There are many different versions so you have to take yours out and find one that matches the connectors on the back. Here is a few pictures of the vacuum pump and a control I found on eBay.
  8. I was just at Josams this Thursday and Friday. I had an air leak fixed and the all the wheel bearings and chassis lubed. I always tell Barry to have his mechanics inspect the chassis for frame cracks and so far hasn’t found any. He ended up replacing the front wheel bearings. I have a ring camera mounted on the outside by the door and saw quite a few other Monacos there getting worked on. I told Barry about this site and that he was well known and a lot of good things were said about the shop. Lost of free advertising
  9. Wish they had the outside vent in chrome like my dryer vent instead of black or white.
  10. Thanks for all the information from everyone. I’m going to change to ATF when I get back because we do and have traveled in some areas where I started up in the morning in the 20’s and I’m also not worried about mixing the two anymore.
  11. Ivan, yes my tank is just like yours it huge so changing fluid is going to be expensive. Frank, yes I believe you are correct in that I have the AW46 fluid. When I pulled a sample and compared it to ATF it’s a lot lighter in color. I think ATF has been added over the years to top off. Glad to know it’s ok to mix the two. As others have suggested I’m just going to wait and change the fluid when I get back from my trip. Thanks for all the replies.
  12. Thanks, I have read a lot of information on the site about the topic and I definitely would like to drain and refill but I’m getting ready to go on a trip and just wanted to change the filter right now and was just wondering if I could mix the fluids. It says in the manual this hydraulic tank holds 35 quarts…almost 9 gallons gezzz that’s a lot. I would like to put Transynd in but going to be pricey and even putting regular transmission fluid won’t be cheap either.
  13. I am in the midst of changing my hydraulic filter. Above the hydraulic tank there is a sticker that says Use Texaco Ursa 15w40. When I pull a sample it’s definitely not super red like atf but I think atf has been added. The reason I why I think that is because when I purchased it two years ago there was a gallon jug half full of Dexron three in rear bay and being since I have Transynd in the transmission I don’t know why else it would be on board. I like to prefill my filters so is it ok to mix atf with this oil. At this point I’m not sure if it’s oil or aw46 in there.
