There is a switch behind the passenger seat on the wall that says heater. Has a position for low or high. I presume that is for the floor aquahot heater registers ? If so mine always stays at the same speed when switched to either position. Is there a relay for this ? Or am I missing something.

            I have coach #145 and am getting around to fixing the starter circuit. Here's what I have. Previous owner said it would never start from the front since he had it. He always started it from the rear. It had quite a few other things that needed addressed first, so I am now ready to dive into this. It has since quit starting from the rear all together. It will start on the starter so no problem  there. I put up photos to show the rear. The red/ black wire that's disconnected from the terminal so far is the culprit. It goes to the solenoid, but has no continuity. My question is where does it go between terminal block and solenoid? That's where I'm losing power from rear start switch. I'm leaning towards the front start problem being in the neutral safety switch from some checking before it completely stopped.

Also what configuration does the rear switches need to be in for the front to work?

Thanks,
David Williams

I have a leak under my coach and turned off all four spigot valves in the engine bay to get the coach back home (thank you Newell After-Hours Service!). Luckily I was very close to home and had the SilverLeaf engine management running so saw the temps going up and only got up to 200f but shut down the engine when the dash lights came on… I removed the dash cover piece and I can see the hoses and heat exchanger under the dash - what controls the valve that connects the hoses to the heat exchanger under the dash?  How do I remove the dash to check the hoses?  It looks like the floor under the hoses is dry… Since I lost most of my coolant when the valves were open how can I test the system? I guess it’s a good time to put in new coolant (after the leaks are fixed). Do the coolant lines run under the coach?

Hello,

I am in search of a Newell coach with bath and a half.  Prefer mid entry but open to front entry.  Want wood tone cabinets, sleeper sofa, and a generous kitchen.

Anyone have anything not currently listed?

I saw this coach 1409 possibly for sale if anyone happens to have contact information for the owner.

Thanks so much!
Mark

We just purchased a '91 Newell 'project'. Going through everything trying to get it all working as it should.

I tried searching here and, in the manuals, and can't find the info I need.
I was tightening all the loose battery connections and the big fuse on the ground side crumbled in my hands.
Does anyone know the amperage rating on these? I will probably replace both and get a couple spares...

Next project will be the Primus system, lol! Wish me luck!

My sequencing came apart on the top thread, causing the water too keep running, the threads on both parts looked ok but the valve would not tighten  the top of the valve was 0.020 inches bigger than the bottom made a clamp out of some 18 gauge stainless and was able to compress the abs so the threads would not slip

2004 60 Series, 14 Liter, EGR delete, no waste gate, noticed transmission shifting different, full throttle to do 60 miles a hour, only getting 3 psi boost, made it to where I was going, fuel filter was ok, all hoses on and could not find any leaks, pulled hose off turbo, intake vanes looked ok, turbo spun smoothly, no vibrations, no play up or down or in and out, ends up the block off plate for the EGR had lost a nut and the other one was loose.
     
Replaced nut and double nutted jammed nuts together so hopefully will not happen again
Motor does not make boost in neutral, had to brake torque it in gear to check for boost
Drove back to Tampa after the 500 and every thing was back to normal

So zipdee awning appears to be trying to separate from the coach by tearing this fabric that's probably worn beyond its years considering the coach's 32 years old...
So I guess the question is is this a standard type of fabric the person can buy and just re-weave into the system or is their  more to the story to getting this replaced repaired..... appears to be separating tearing on both sides ..on the outside edges.

Pictures attached...

My other coach awning was metallically mounted directly to the coach without this fabric....
So this is a new configuration for me..
