Seems a s though our coach is moving more then I would expect. We have an HWH air leveling system.
Once the coach is level how much movement in the coach should be expected during just normal activities such as rolling over on the coach or in bed, walking going down the steps and out the door, or even just walking through the coach.

  ABS sensor for Dana axle (2000ish vintage coach)

Gang,

I am at Newell and have figured out that one of my ABS sensors is bad.  Actually a wrong one got installed a while ago, but that is another story.

I am looking for a source for an ABS sensor for my tag axle.

Newell is able to source the ABS sensors that fit the ZF axle, but cannot find sensors for the Dana axle.  Both sensors are very closely related and the only difference is a collar at the top of the sensor on the ZF that will not allow it to get close to the tone ring.  (See photo).  The top one is for the ZF axle  and the bottom one is for a Dana axle.

The WABCO part number is 441 032 922 0

The Dana kit which includes the entire ABS system is SM483/16K.

Dana does not thru-sell the WABCO part...and apparently WABCO is in India.

Has anyone sourced one of these sensors? 

Cheers,
bill

  Leak source found

Gang,

I am at Newell having them fix several rain water leaks on my coach.  They ended up taking the number 1 slide completely apart looking for one of the leaks.  As a result, we found a nasty leak that I wanted to share with you guys....

The attached picture shows the Girard awning that runs the entire length of my number 1 (drivers front) slide.  The power to the awning enters the coach behind the awning, so it is really hard to see if the caulk / sealant has failed.  In my case it failed a long time ago causing a lot of hidden damage behind the phantom wall.  

If you have electric awnings, it might be a good idea to climb up and take a look.

Cheers,
bill

  Left side of coach leaning??

I have a 2003 45'Quad with Valid slides and Trueline leveling system.  After several months of sitting in storage i went to coach to drive this weekend and when in travel mode, the coach was leaning to the left both front and rear.  The right side appeared to be riding fine and level in normal travel position.  We ended up driving around 80-90 miles and it still never came to level (to the same height as) on the left side.  After parking a coach for several months, do you need to turn the leveling system off and restart the system in either the level or travel modes?  Or is this a solenoid problem?  If so, where might i purchase the solenoids and can I replace and install or do i need to hire someone like Newell or a mechanic to do the work?

When i returned the coach to the storage facility, I parked the coach and leveled it, the leveling system appeared to be working fine.  The coach leveled correctly with both the left and right sides leveled and appearing to be maintaining the same height.

Thanks for in advance for your comments or suggestions.

  How many propane furnaces

How many heaters do I have? Actually a good problem to have since know  I have  5 120 volt and 1 propane. There are  120 volt heaters in the bath area( toilet side)  Bedroom, Salon ( Dinette area), and between the driver and passenger, (console) an 1 more in the water bay. I have yet to find the thermostat for the water bay.It's got to be in there somewhere ! 

The one propane I am aware of is under the jackknife sofa. Previous owner of the coach Todd , had the sofa recovered  and all new ducting put in at that time. My question is are there more propane furnaces on board? I only see external vents for one. 

I have furnace envy with Clarke, as he has at least two propane furnaces .  Smile Actually 1 is fine with me, if I ever require two, it would be time to move further south.
