2002 Newell 45 Center entry 3 slide 2 bath For Sale 
Tap Out Special. Does anyone want to take the baton? I'm ready.
This coach has been in the bay for a embarrassing amount of time. It was a bank repo that we have been bringing the systems slowly online. 
The slide system has been a sticking point for longer then a year. The entire slide system has been removed 2 times and sent to HWH. both times there where faults established in the control boards. Currently rear slides work living room slide does not but this can change as we work thru it. If slides get to a operational  point price will reflect . 
This coach is not perfect and will require someone with expertise. The interior is rough with a couple of areas of water intrusion and upholstery has excessive wear from a misbehaved feline or 2
Mechanically sound 180k miles on the series 60 Detroit pre def. Runs and drives down the road as it should. 
Tires are 2007 Michelins. Stored inside a long distance run should be had with new tires. 
Exterior is clean. No dents . stored indoors. she's a looker on the outside of the coach. Paint looks very good.
What has been
Passenger slide entirely rebuilt with new floor and new micro switches installed. walls of slide rebuilt as well. 
New 120v Compressor installed
New Slide topper awnings installed
air bulb seals repaired
new Inverter with lithium ion capable
new slide components 
Needs list
Interior could use a refresh is worn with pictures on there way
slides all function if run directly  from solenoids however getting everything on line with the slides will need work
appliances and plumbing are unknown condition
generator is unknown condition
no service records are available. 
Sold with clear title and keys
Endless questions promoting your wealth of knowledge and mistaking this for the Bring a trailer auction question and answer, .....will be ignored. 
$50,000.00 tap out price wired funds can take up to 5 days to process into our account. Do not expect to pick up until funds are fully transferred. 
                           

2002 45 3 slide Coach # 628
I have sent my box into HWH 2 times. 1st HWH send in was to have a complete inspection and rebuild what was necessary due to multiple faults and preventative maintenance. Installed box from returning from HWH I went from everything working except living room floor and living room slide would come out and not come back in. No power or light on for living room board. Out goes the entire box again because just removing the board is not enough. Spend more money and reinstalled box and now living room slide is completely non op light still does not come on and now drivers bed slide is non op as well. Back on the horn with HWH and they indicated that Newell changes some of the components in the box from there preset control board settings. I have heard of a strawberry that could delete all the old control boards and would solve my problems. Could someone lead me in that direction please.

Rear curb slide will extend about halfway and then throws error message (room motor over current) and hard stops.  How do I tell if it’s an obstruction or a bearing that is causing the issue?

Good afternoon all,  My wife and I bought coach 210 in late August, it's a 1989 and in great shape, both mechanically and the living quarters. 

WITH one exception!!  It pulls to the right.  Not so bad it wants to make a right had turn but it's bad enough that if you don't keep pressure on the steering wheel to the left the entire bus will be on the shoulder in a 1/8th of a mile at 65 MPH.  We have had the suspension, brakes, and alignment checked all good.  Actually great according to one tech.  We have jacked up the front end to see if the steering gear want to pull one way or the other and it doesn't.  The pull is worse under braking BUT all brakes are good and nothing is dragging.  We have driven it about 700 miles this way so if it was a dragging brake we would know for sure!

At this point any suggestion would be great!  We live in SE NE and it's 40 years old I really don't want to take it all the way to OK and quite frankly spend what I can guess is quite the premium to have Newell work on it.  

Any help is appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

I've been in quite a few discussions regarding the water system in the modern coaches; referring to the 201x on.

Does anyone know of a schematic/diagram/layout that details the flow of water, the checkvalves, Headhunter, City supply, etc?

The big "mystery" is the interaction with city water, pressure differential, and how the water is taken from the tank vs. the city supply. Some would argue that, if you reduce the pressure of the city supply, through a regulator, that you force the supply to be taken from the TANK. Whereas, conversely, if you feed the coach with higher pressure, the system will draw its supply only from the CITY.

From what others have gathered, even if you ask 10 guys at Newell, you'll get 10 different answers!
   
So, I've taken a stab at it by labeling my system. The secret lies in this magic silver manifold!

Let's solve the mystery!

We just came back from a awesome 4200 mile, 2 month trip out northwest/west.  As usual few issues arose while out on the road. I started to notice that generator will crank and try to start but wont, unless the coach engine is running. fuel filters appear to have no air in them and shut down solenoid working as should.. Yanmar engine/kohler gen 20k. soon as I start the coach the gen will start right up and run perfectly. Is the a lift pump somewhere on the unit for the generator ?  any other ideas ??

We stayed at some pretty cool places along our journey and will share some the the campgrounds/casinoes we stayed at that will hold the big newell coach.

I had the front brakes replaced on my coach this week. 1998 #485 with Dana IFS and HWH leveling. 
Just got to the shop to pick it up and can not get the front suspension to travel mode. 
The coach airs up to 120 psi and the rear axles are at the correct travel mode height; however, the front axle is bottomed out. 
I can take it out of travel mode and raise the front suspension using level mode. In level mode, it will go to the full up position with no apparent leaks. 
I can see the the HCV is still attached to the front sway bar but I do not have jack stands with me so I can not crawl under to take a closer look. 
Any ideas on where to start? 
Picture for reference of the HCV in the full up position. When I select travel mode from this position, the front drops all the way down and the rear goes to the correct travel height.

I generally use Grok and GrokBot for any AI-related info but you can use any AI you like if you have even the $20/month subscription. I created a new GrokBot assistant named ‘Newell Coach’. I have been spending the morning uploading ALL documents, images, Newell Guru listings for my coach and any other related information in my Apple Notes to the GrokBot. I can click on any image of receipts or parts I have taken with my phone and then use the ‘export’ or ‘upload’ feature in Apple images (probably similar in Android) and send them to GrokBot and into the ‘Newell Coach’ folder easily.  It also offered to create a complete list of all repairs/maintenance performed based on the receipts and any I add later!  After it finishes I will have a local and cloud store of everything I have done and documented for the coach! This is just an awesome use of AI if I do say so myself :-) Have a happy day!

Doing a preflight on my 99 (#526) before a trip. Decided to check the HWH fluid level. Without looking at the cap I unscrewed it and checked the dipstick. Nothing on it. This is with slides in, power off. 

Screwed the cap back on till tight. Looked at it and it still had some threads showing. Threaded on easily, so I don’t think it’s cross threaded. Tried several times with the same result. 

Just wondering with folks out there with the same vintage coach. Is this normal. Wondering if it not going all the way in was giving me a low fluid indication. Scared to overfill it. 

Appreciate the help.

Is this orange cylinder (leaking) part of the old steering assist? Rebuildable? Removable?  Appreciate it.
