Larry 2006 Newell 45 #756. I am having an issue with my generator, it starts and runs great but dies as soon as I release the start switch. I’ve checked the oil pressure sender and it’s fine. The coach is new to me 2 weeks ago and is in very nice condition but I kind of need the generator to work. Any help would be appreciated.

I have minor damage to the Passenger Side Engine Compartment Door . Can it be removed ? Paint and fiberglass  needs repair on 6 inch by 6 inch section on trim on door .

How does one turn on the tile heat? I have gone to the Temp screen on the Silver Leaf and raised the setting all the way up to 10, but it does not seem to do anything. I attached pictures of my SilverLeaf screens. I have other heating systems running. Can the tile heat operate when other things are on? I've looked through all my manuals and could not find anything with any reference about the tile heat.

I just ordered some century heat transfer fluid to refill the overflow tank on the aquahot because the level has slowly been dropping. 

I thought it might have something to do with the heater running, but on closer inspection I noticed that there was a small puddle of fluid near the back of the unit.  Looking around some more i found that coolant had been running down the AH exhaust pipe and making a puddle on the ground.

I'm not seeing a leak around any of the external piping or pumps so I'm assuming that it's coming for inside of the unit itself. 

I haven't found much in the manual about a leak and or how to fix it.  I am assuming that it's going to be a major operation to fix the problem but I don't know.

Does anyone know or have an idea of what could be leaking on the inside of the aquahot? 

Thanks in advance,
Tyler

Hi guys, 
Have been trying to run down a leak thats showing up top of Driver window frame in heavy rain , have pretty much ruled out the window leaking however there is a cap seam over it on the roof. Anybody had that seam to leak? That i can tell mine has not been sealed or taped and not sure it needs to be. All the common area on the roof are sealed with dicor lap sealant. Have some water coming in shore power compartment and wondering if it’s coming from the cap seam as well? Anybody with similar issues or ideas? Thanks Robert 

There is a wealth of information available on Newell Gurus for the BODE Door. As I research the problem with my door I will compile what I find and post in this thread.

Looking to purchase a Newell. I like both Prevost and Newell’s, and have had both but, leaning towards the Newell again. Front or mid entry, Kingbed, Cummins or cat, but no ISX 650 unless it’s had the makeover. Budget $550.000 cash buyer.

I’m looking at a 2012 with ISX 650 Cummins. I’m hesitant because of the 650. Your thoughts?? Thank you

Hey All!

Can someone tell met exactly what size the pocket door 90 degree fittings to the cylinder are.. Looks like 1/8" OD tube, but what brass thread into the solenoid body?

And is there anyplace that would have them on a Sunday? I'm leaving for a Thanksgiving trip on Monday morning!

Thanks!!!

I have a strange phenomenon happen when I press the button to turn the auxiliary air compressors on or off on one of the control panels next to the microwave. When the auxiliary compressor switch is in the off position, the compressor button and three of the other six buttons on that panel turn on as if those buttons have been pressed and those items turned on (main water pump, diesel hot water, and electric hot water). Those extra items do not turn on, but their buttons show they are on. If I press one of those buttons, the item turns on and off normally, but the light stays on. Additionally, a panel above the front entry door has three buttons that also turn on (outside flood lights). Again, pressing those buttons toggle the items on and off, but the panel lights stay on regardless. The buttons in the water bay also show the main water pump as on all the time. When I press the auxiliary compressor to the on state, all other panel lights behave normally. Since I am chasing air leaks, I have been turning the compressors off so they don't run all the time, but it's driving me nuts to not know if my water pump and water heaters are really on or off. I've been turning the compressors on so my panel lights work correctly and have been physically unplugging the compressors to keep them from running. Is this one for the Newell factory to address and replace a faulty button panel? Or is there some other approach I can try. I did disconnect all power, including turning off all switches in the battery bay so there was no power to the coach and let it sit for a long while. I thought that may reset something, but it did not work.
