Problem: I put a hole in the ac condenser coil which is aluminum… bright it to a local welder and they say the hole is too close to the end to fix :-( 
Where can I source a new condenser please? 
I hope I am calling it the right thing - it’s the big radiator looking thing on the outside of the ac unit…
TIA!!!

Just purchased #1268. If anyone has info on her please pass it along
Thank you Nando Garbarino

Hello to the group. I have decided to sell our 1990 Newell coach with a Detroit Diesel Silver 8V92TA and an Allison automatic transmission. This was originally built for Golden State Foods to serve as a corporate hospitality coach for NASCAR and other events. It was designed with front and rear lounge areas and a full bathroom / kitchen in the middle. I gutted the rear lounge area intending to make a bedroom in the back and rearrange the bathroom. In the process I have upgraded many items including a new Magnum Energy true sine wave inverter, a hardwired Surge Guard surge protector with automatic transfer switch and remote monitor, a porcelain Tecna macerating toilet with wall mounted controls, three new Coleman Mach Roughneck roof a/c's with heating elements and a central thermostat (three zones). The coach is equipped with a 12kw generator run by a 4 cylinder Kubota diesel engine. I have just replaced the steel main fuel tank with an aluminum unit, cleaned the fuel separators, and changed the filters. I also just had the engine ECM repaired and it has never ran better than it does now. It starts eagerly and has awesome power. Coolant and transmission fluid have been recently changed, Tires are older, but in excellent condition. As you see in the pictures I never got the rear area finished and my wife is tired of waiting. We just bought an Airstream travel trailer and this is now in the way. It is a project for sure. It has good bones, but needs a lot of TLC. All the worthy pieces I removed from the interior are stored in one of the lower compartments along with extra things I had purchased but not installed like LED light fixtures etc. I have all the original books/owners manuals and a set of blueprints for the coach. I just took this on a 350 mile round trip to North Central Wisconsin for some fine tuning of the ECM at Leid Diesel Service of Wisconsin and it ran/drove excellent. $13,000.00 OBO I am in Lake Mills, Wisconsin 53551. My cell phone is (920) 728-7942, but allow some time for me to respond as I am retired and finally untethered from my personal electronics.            

Does anyone know of a reliable 7-way round (not the flat version) tow light connection converter?  I have a converter from the flat/blade type of round connection but it doesn't fit in the hole, so there has to be a different kind of connector.  I found a few 6 pin ones, but I need a 7 pin version to a flat connector to light my tow kit.

Any suggestions?

Steadily working through my list of projects to make this coach as perfect as possible. Next on the list is the two shades I have that only seem to go down about 10 inches and stop. They appear to be working fine they go up and down, but it’s like the stop has somehow been set to 10 inches instead of the entire window height.  Are these blinds programmable or is there some kind of a mechanical stop in there that I need to adjust???? I had MSC blinds in my Tiffin and they were programmable, but I can’t seem to find any way to do the same with these. 
Like always, thanks in advance for all the help!!!

Can anyone tell me what this air solenoid controls. My coach is 375 and this solenoid is mounted on the wall of the bay that holds slide out cooler/freezer.

Thank you,

For all of the Victron system owners.....cut and pasted from another forum:

"The operating system for Victron Cerbo GX and the Ekrano GX is called Venus OS and it has been in the wild for nearly a decade and has constantly received upgrades and tweaks. It has just received a major overhaul and upgrade and version 3.60 was deployed today. Here is a blogpost that describes the major improvements: Venus OS 3.60. This update is not just tweaking, it adds a significant number of new, and long waited for, features".

I'm currently working through some AC issues.  My ultimate plan is to install a mini split in the front and keep the rear working for as long as I can.  I have a trip, coming up however and I'm trying to cobble somnething together usind the high current relays as others have done.  My problem is my thermostat and/or board are doing strange things when it comes to HI/Low.  I can work around that as well by wiring up only high, but I am trying to understand exactly how the system is suppose to work (in referance to the HI / low fans and one vs. two compressors).  In low is only one compressor supposed to work?  Is the wiring on the cond/evap fans high /low windings or additionaly fans?  If it is higher speed windings are both the high and low windings energized on high or only the high????  

Thanks in advance for any information.

I returned to my coach after being absent for 2 1/2 months on a medical emergency and found I had no power from my house batteries. Normally the lights above the microwave that indicate water level, holding tanks, and temperature were off, and I had no 12 volt compressor. I went out and checked the house batteries with a battery tester and all checked okay. I checked the inverter and it seems normal. Does anyone have a suggestion on what's the problem?

Thank you,

Jeff 
Coach #375

Stapleton42 has posted a utube video of changing out an air bag. It’s too hot to be outside right now, so I watched it. And I laughed in understanding of his misery. For those of you who have changed your own, you too will smile while watching the struggle. 


For those of you who have not changed one or more, you will no longer wonder why the shop charges so much to change one.
