Shamu,
"The nest is at the far end of the cone shaped air intake tube screen, my intake starts on the right rear side of the coach." Then you can remove the inlet cover on the coach body and vacuum it out or disassemble, clean & inspect and replace the air filter and start new.
Any weather checked hosing I would replace. When you get time, spend some time looking for hosing that is chafing against any thing. Time spent will save you an inopportune breakdown.
Not a big lover of pressure washing engines, but every time I go to the factory I see them doing it.
Not sure what water purifier system you have. I have three filters and they are always on.
Provide a picture of what lights you are referring to. While you are checking lights, don't forget to check the warning lights that illuminate from behind the dash covering. Lights like the check engine & stop engine lights. There is about 10-12 of them. Bulbs are available at Wal*Mart. Have to remove top of dash to replace the lights.
"My basement central lock system locks all but three doors, is that an actuator issue?" Applying 12 volts to the actuators that don't work will tell you whether you have an electrical or actuator issue. Or check first are the actuators getting 12V.
"I don't have a 50 amp service set up yet (hopefully next week) until then, what is the best way to keep up the batteries?" Do you have any power? If not run your genset occasionally to keep the batteries charged. If you do plug into it and select the amps on your electric inverter panel.
"will the tire pressures drop after setting for over a week or so? Is there a way to inflate them from the coach?" Shouldn't. BUT tire pressure does change with temperature changes. Increase with heat & decrease with cold. You should have an air chuck fitting in the right side engine access compartment at the RR of your coach. It is located by the SS electrical box. With the engine running you can inflate up to coach pressure. A air multiplier or booster is needed to go over about 120 psi.
If you are coming to the rally in June we can give you a hands on introduction to your coach & its systems. Hope to see you there!
Hope I answered your questions..........................
