my number one slide had a seal go down. As I investigated it I realized this slide has 2 seals. One that runs on the bottom about 6-7 feet. And the other one runs the last 2 feet on the bottom up around the whole slide and the underneath another 2 feet. The one on the bottom side inflates the other one is where the leak is.. none of my other seals are doubles. Just this slide.. anyone have something similar? Why have 2 seals?

Forum: Big Rig Friendly places to go

We are making plans to head south for the winter (California and Arizona) and want to travel on to Florida to attend the 2018 Daytona 500 festivities for two weeks.  Does anyone have suggestions as to campgrounds or RV resorts in the Daytona area that are Newell friendly?  We have attended other Nascar races (Bristol, Charlotte, Texas, Phoenix) and would prefer to stay at close in campgrounds, even if a little more pricey.  Any suggestions or referrals?

We know its early and the 2017 season is not over, but want to make sure we see the 500 in February.  Thanks.

1981-1989 Lincoln Town Car Door Handle - Front Left - Driver Side - Action Crash FO1310109

Anyway, put this in your search engine to find suppliers. 

One of the legs broke on ours while traveling this summer. I took the interior panel off to remove the handle and jury rig a fix until we could get a replacement. 

You can tell if one of hinge legs breaks because the handle will be cocked. If both of them break, you might have a heck of time getting the door to open. Just sayin.......that I didn't think much about the cocked door handle, until I got the door apart and realized I was flirtin with a larger problem.

Ppmy coach (1995..385) has a relay that powers 2 wires 
Both are orange with white stripe. One wire powers AC compressor 
And I have no idea what the other wire powers... BUT it’s pulling about 28 amps
It doesn’t go the fan motors. With this wire unhooked everything seems to work
But with it on the relay something is pulling a lot of amps. Something is amiss

Anyone have any thoughts....

Hello Gurus,
I'm still looking for "my" coach, and I've been rather enamored with this coach that has been for sale in Montana all summer.
All of the ads are currently expired, but the seller tells me it's still available.
Originally listed at $65K, I believe it was last listed for $45K.
Is anyone here familiar with this unit? Any info would be appreciated.
The seller tells me they got it in Illinois if that helps.
All I have to show you is this attached      photo, 
and an old partial ad listing.

Thanks for any and all info.

While at newell # 390 was pulled in to alignment pit and the passenger side hcv was dumping air.When air dropped below 90 psi leaking or exhausting stopped.Replaced hcv with one I had on board that Richard suggested I carry with me.Same result.Newell folks are not fans of this hcv so a Newell plastic bodied one was installed.Same result.After much head scratching cussing and discussion Mike a service writer came to the rescue.He observed the problem for about 10 minutes and proclaimed the driver side rear up solenoid needed to be replaced.This was on a Thursday about 4:30 pm.I had a motorcycle race I was competing in the following day 2 hours away.Needless to say I am having visions of not making the race and staying in God's country 3 more days at minimum.My understanding of the air system told me that Mike's idea was not the answer.I was wrong( as usual).The solenoid fixed the problem.I still do not understand that.Big props to the staff at Newell for staying 45 minutes after 5:00 pm on payday to get me on my way.I meet Bill( Bikestuff) and Mike( LandYachts) while I was there.Nice guys.Enjoyed the wisdom you shared with me.

Kudos to Clint Johnson for this one.  He found an almost identical replacement at AutoZone.  They work and look just like the originals once they are installed.

Autozone Duralast part number 19812.

The only difference is the mounting holes are slightly closer together.   And there is only one #1 terminal.  Clint overcame the terminal difference by pig tailing his wires together.  I overcame this difference by using a terminal doubler like these.

Right now AutoZone is offering free shipping.  I had them shipped directly and received them in 5 days.
