Went to storage today to check on a couple of things.  Opened the Aquahot cabinet and noticed something running.  Of the 3 in a row on the attached picture the left one was on,  is this normal?
Thanks

Would be the lowest one.,... picture not rotated correctly.

Purchasing a 2022 Newell. Does anyone know if these coaches can be retrofitted with dynamic cruise either by factory or third party?  Our last Class A had it and I am a slave to it

Coach 1482 dash air uses M8 on low side and M10 on the high side.  I have been getting parts from Air Components for 35 years.  They also have a SCUBA shop there.
M10 Valve Core and M8 Valve Core   

Hi Tech Testing:            

Well, I recently took my rig to have an oil leak fixed.  When I went to lift the engine hatch, the left side would not release.  Pulled the taillight to manipulate the latch and still could not get it to release.  The Tech cut the striker and the hatch went up.  He has been unlucky finding a striker.  

Has anyone replaced these strikers before and have a source/part number?  They tried one from O'Reilly's, but was unsuccessful.

Thanks and Happy New Year!!

Here is the brand new unit that I have.

50 Amp Bluetooth Surge Protector with Auto Shutoff - Portable - Hughes Autoformers

I received the new unit as a warranty claim.  I also have a brand new replacement module, like this.

Replacement Surge Module for PWD50-EPO unit - Hughes Autoformers

I'm selling both for $215 which includes free shipping.

Its raining all day today and I am proud to say we have no water leaks inside or in the bays other than the normal water when you open the doors. While check I noticed a lot of cold air coming from the front of the coach not only windows but under the dash as you can see on this flir picture the darker the area is the coldest, this area is right above the six packs on the floor and front cap. Has anyone had a fix for this?

We developed an air leak in the upfront compartment. I removed the panel located in front of the brake pedal, sounds like it is coming from this area. I can't locate the source amongst all the lines. Depressing the brake seems to make it slow down a little. Any suggestions where to look? We are traveling down the coast of Oregon to Napa, CA, currently at an awesome park in Winchester Bay. Don't know where we would go to get it evaluated.

So like many others I am working on some merge solenoid issues. My chassis batteries have been draining and I need to track down what is dragging them down. After some reading on here I have some things to check including the cables and the fuse on the negative cable. I ended up not able to charge up the chassis battery with the merge solenoid. I did some testing and confirmed the solenoid was no longer passing current as it should. I replaced it but am not very happy with this design, and I may be replacing things with a permanent charger on the chassis battery and the merge solenoid will only be used as a backup. I am not sure but I do not think it’s a good idea that the merge solenoid be used during starting the engine, that could put too much current through that 85 amp rated solenoid. Perhaps 2 of them in parallel or a much larger solenoid would be better. 
Well I do have a question, while I was troubleshooting I created a problem. I was using my power probe to put power to the solenoid to activate it, well I accidentally hit the button on the power probe that goes to ground and I must have popped a fuse. I believe it’s on the house side but not sure. Where would I find the fuse that feeds this? I checked all the fuses next to my AC panel in the walk-in closet, and I checked all the fuses near the inverter in the bay. Where else would I find fuses to check? The battery merge does work when I push the switch to the up position, not sure which system that is connecting to. Appreciate any help. 
I will try to do a write up if I end up installing the battery charger on my chassis batteries.

Entry door will not open. There is no air in the lines, so I cannot release the air to open the door. The door seems to be sealed shut by the pressure inside the coach. Started the compressor from outside thinking it would build some air up in the lines, but that didn't work. Any suggestions? It's a 2008 Newell #1230.

Thank you

This is a guide for truck owners that I believe is relevant to us motorhome owners. This was written in 2012 by a truck owner-operator that has a Cummins ISX, but his website, rawze.com, also contains information about Detroits and CATs. Much of the information on his site requires that you own a device to program the engine ECM, the rest is just common sense.
