So, I used the search, but everything on entry doors were about replacement parts, power, etc. I just need to know how to set our own code as we just picked up #1234 a couple months ago. Everything lights up and works. The previous 2 owners did not know the answer or where the manual maybe. Miami doesn’t seem to have the answer either. 

I’m sure it’s super easy to set a new code with instructions. Thanks. We are slowly getting acclamated to our latest RV and all of its systems.

Good morning Gurus. I have coach 1490, my toad is a 21 Denali hd. All turn signals, brake lights and running lights work separately on perspective vehicles. When I plug toad into coach, I only get turn signals and brake lights———no running lights on toad. I plugged my toad into one of my other vehicles and have blinkers, brake lights, and running lights. The umbilical cord is brand new. I read a previous post by Steve Vance stating that some lights don’t work until you release park brake, could this be the issue? I have checked the fuse box in passenger side engine bay and it seems all ok…..Regards, Mike

Maybe I can get recommendations  or insight on my issue before I do unnecessary testing  and removal.
I left Austin tx and drove 5 hours on my way to Scottsdale Az and everything was running great. 
Pulled over for the night in Sonora Tx. The next morning we were continuing on our journey for about 30 min on I-10 aprox 75 mph and noticed the dash amp meter was really jumping to 100 amps and back and forth to 0 amps  . First thought was the gauge but then I saw the volt meter start jumping also from 12  to 16 volts and staying at 16 volt for a bit then jump back down . At this point I new something was serious . Rode another 5 miles for a safe place to pull over . Upon inspection saw or heard nothing odd.
I pulled one cable from the alternator circuit braker located in engine compartment taped it off and continued on the way for 12 hours with just power from house and engine battery power with no problem.
Sounds like the voltage regulator located on the alternator ? Was getting ready to pull the gear driven alt but thought I might ask for insight.
So seem like alt is working but putting out 2 much.
Should I look anywhere else beside regulator? 
Pull just Regulator on Alt or pull Alt as a unit?
Can I test Diode trio while Alt is installed or Just assume it is regulator the way gauges are jumping and pegging maximum .
Any recommendations on source for parts service, I'm still in Scottsdale for a little longer.

Alt info below  looks like original from1984  miles on coach under 100k 1986 dd8v92 40'

So I am currently on a 2 week trip over the Christmas and New Years holidays. The trip has been a bit of a challenge when it comes to Newell issues. This thread will focus on my generator dying on me. So you know the symptoms, it was running and it started sputtering and died. I assumed it was a plugged fuel filter, I had issues with some crud in the fuel for the main engine so I figured it got to the generator. I went ahead and changed both fuel filters on the generator and tried starting again. No joy, I am not getting any fuel. I try the primer switch on the generator which runs the fuel pump, I hear the fuel pump running, now puzzled, still no fuel. I figure maybe just lost prime, so I pressurize the fuel tank with my vacuum blowing air into the fuel tank, pulled the line off the output of the generator fuel pump and its just trickling out. So I go ahead and pull the fuel pump, fuel pump is running but when I open it up the actual pumping part spins slowly and if you put your finger on it, it stops all together and barely spins. So I start hunting the fuel pump. The only thing on the pump are a few numbers, at least it had those as a starting spot, turns out the original is a Carter fuel pump #4070BD. I google this and I am only getting this part available to be ordered online. While searching a Delphi pump came up at Napa, the Delphi pump I got and used was part #FE0553. The only small hurdle was that the 12v plugs from the old pump were too large to stay on the terminals of the Delphi pump, but the Delphi pump came with new plugs so I cut the wires and spliced on the new plugs and then I was still having no luck getting any fuel. I had to pressurize the fuel tank again to get fuel to the pump, once I got fuel in the pump it started pumping good.

All of this was not so easy as I was doing this in Tennessee and the temps here were hovering in the 30's during the day and teens and 20s at night. I ran out of light the first day and we pulled up stakes and ran over to a local campground for the night so we could charge up and have power. That was another bit of a debacle, I stopped at the campground to check in and shut off the coach. Came back out and went to start the coach and click click, no start. Seems I merged the house batteries with my house batteries and I think my house bank pulled my start bank down. Not sure what to do at this point, my trailer with all my tools etc was at our property about 10 min away but was not sure what I had that I could do, the generator was not working so I could not charge the batteries. I called AAA and luckily they were there in about 20 minutes, the guy pulled out a tiny little jump pack and I was skeptical but we both decided to give it a try. Well it did the trick, it was enough and it rolled over and fired right up. The booster he used was a NOCO GB70, he mentioned there is one that is a bit larger than that one he recommend really should be used for a heavy vehicle, I think its the GB150, it has 3000 cranking amps. Anyways, that was just a small part of our trip saga. This was just one of the hurdles we were fighting. 

So a synopsis of part numbers:
Original Fuel Pump
Carter #4070BD
Napa Pump
Delphi #FE0553

Anyone know where to find a low coolant level sensor. Isx15. 3 pin. I got the number off of the sensor, but when I look it up, it reads, not enough numbers. I ordered a couple off of the internet that look like mine, but they didn’t work. 361111 was the number on my sensor. Ty

Probably only the old timers will remember Tuga. He passed away a few days ago. Cindy and I met him when he offered to show us his Newell.
