  1. Thnx. I found the two fuses and actually got the stereo to work properly n play dvd’s. Problem now is, it keeps making a noise when shut off. It’s the memory portion. So I started wiring in the new stereo, should be done tomorrow.
  2. So I decided the buy the jvc, it was on sale for 469. While Procrastinating on looking further into the switch issue it went on a further mark down to 299. So I bought it. Install will need to wait just little while, I have a few other things going on. At least for now someone will know how to repair a stuck CD.
  3. You can call crutch field, give them the measurements of your opening and of the new stereo n they will probably have the insert u need Also you can just use the hot wire behind the dash if u already have another stereo, I’m just waiting to see if the switch affects the stereo play, probably not but mine plays the movies as well. Otherwise it’s a DVD player with a sound bar a new stereo, new speakers n probably an amp. Crutchfield has a pretty nice JVC on deal right now, wireless everything. I definitely need ceiling speakers though. Happy wife n u know the rest..
  4. Good morning all, I have the Magnadyne stereo I will be replacing I think. I have read all the earlier posts, I have a Question regarding the radio power switch AND a fix if you have a stuck cd. First stuck cd, had the stereo apart 4 times hoping to fix, didn’t have Anything to lose but to try n fix it. Problem: it would not eject the cd. First inside the stereo is the CD holder mechanism, below that is a rod from one side to the others, this rod has a rubber grip on it that grabs the cd and rolls it in n out. The steel eventually spins inside the rubber roller, fix remove the rod, pull off the rubber, add super glue n let it set. Put it back together and it worked just as it should. new problem, stereo switch on the dash it not lighting up, I replaced the switch and still nothing. Problem: not getting power to stereo now and the stereo itself is making a clicking noise, so it’s seems it’s getting power from somewhere . I removed the fuse to cut power. Question is, is there a relay somewhere that controls the dash power switch? 07 HR Endeavor. The old switch light was out as well so I figured I’d replace it. The stereo was working even with the light out on the old switch. Just odd the new switch light isn’t working as well. having issues with photo downloads, will as soon as I can
  5. Thank you I’ll just take it easy n let the knuckleheads pass me.
  6. Isn't Julian west of Ocotillo? i'm coming from AZ, which shows the 87 south form Blythe goes through Bawley I think,
  7. Has anyone driven Hwy 78 from Blythe to Ocotillo wells? Meeting the kids there. If you have driven it how is the road? I'd had to go all the way to the 86 and then south. Looks like the 78 is much quicker for me.
  8. Gen-turi much quieter and no fumes if your windows are open. how many hours on the gen
  9. Permatex stretch tape, repair any oil/water leak to get you home, set of A's , I have a 3" circular saw, permatex gasket maker, air line and fittings, tire plug and sealant, and WHISKEY just in case...
  10. Thank you guys for the replies. I’m going to replace everything. I don’t know, but I’ll find out if I can do away with the switch box as well. The dash radio plays movies through the surround system but that needs to go as well. we’ve had dish for years, I’ll call winegard as well. I’ll Get all my ducks in a row n go from there. I’ll search through a bunch of threads as well. thanks again and happy new year 🎉🎉🎉
  11. I just have a question. I have the same satellite on my 07, I have dish as well and I was getting it in the rig until a couple years ago. I’m was having it installed in my new home and got another box for the rig. I wasn’t getting any reception. I was told dish changed ( don’t remember) something and I was told if you system is older than 2014 the signal wouldn’t work any longer. anyone know anything about that? Was I dooped? We are looking to replace it now, but I have read some streaming comments. Do you stream on your phone to your tv ? Or do you have an internet in your rig that streams. Don’t want to waste the money and discover I could have done something much simpler. Just wondering what the options are. Thnx, Guido HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!
  12. My isl400 has the filter. Sits on top of rocker cover black box.
  13. My ugly stick works awesome, I pull it out from the bay put on some bait n catch fish. Merry Christmas n good luck
  14. Thnx, no noise on the inverter and I have not r tried to swap the speaker. I can try this when we return, out of state for a few days without the rig where would an EMI filter be placed? I use a small Honda 2200 outside. But I had this several months ago plugged into shore power
  15. Good morning, wondering if anyone has experienced this or have an idea of what the problem may be. Several months ago I heard a small buzzing sound coming from one ceiling speaker. We never watch tv one because I need to replace the satellite and normally we may watch a movie. Anyhow when we were boon-docked I had the portable generator running and then I turned on the coach genny to transition. The buzzing from the speaker became noticeably louder until I turned off the portable genny. Any ideas on what could cause this? No tv or stereo turned on. Thnx
  16. Look for an old school parts house, some of them will have a flatbed belt sander. They use this to surface cylinder heads and exhaust manifolds for the local automotive repair shops. Or ask around some local shops to see if they have the equipment or if they know of another shop. You may have to drive a little bit. I am a strong proponent of resurfacing and thinner gaskets, like I mentioned above mine was way out and it's been about 20k miles now. This thread makes me want to find used one and have have it surfaced to have on hand for the next time. Check to make certain of the torque specs when using a lubricant for any consideration. You're halfway there, all down hill from here.
  17. Always replace exhaust manifold bolts. My manifold was warped 10-thousands, I had it surfaced n reinstalled. Been 5 years now. Good luck to you!!!
  18. Follow up. Book calls for 3/4 inch of fluid from the top which is where it was. Took the float switch out and it checked good. So I added fluid to less than a 1/2 inch put it back together and it works. Short answer fluid was too low. Thanks again for all the responses! now off to replace the generator dash switch. Merry Christmas to all.
  19. I just went through this, mine kept tripping when switching from shore to inverter. With help from Tom Cherry and a few others, I put in a new GFI, and put the fridge outlet on the line not the load. This way I bypass the gfi to the fridge. Try unplugging the fridge and see what happens. GFI's get weak, replace with a reputable brand. my inverter is a magnum. If you haven't had the issue and it's new, probably just a weak GFI, hope this helps
  20. I located n pulled the fuse. Puts me on the road. Check further when we get there in seven hours. Thank you guys for the quick response!!!!
  21. I tried a recalibrate from u tube. Jack went down inch or so n I was able to retract Power gear It’s an 07 Manual won’t do anything
