Hey Folks,

Hope this is the right place for this.  I'm not stranded or anything but it's a little urgent, because tomorrow is my last day up here in Winston-Salem, NC with the coach (I live about 4 hours away) and there is just one more thing I need to fix to get it ready to move back home.  Brake lights.

I have checked the tail lights and the turn signals and all of them work fine, so I think all the bulbs and relays at the back of the bus are okay.  My next suspicion was the brake switch, but I can't seem to locate one to save my life.  I've heard they were under the dash but I could not find anything under there that has air going to it that also had wires coming out of it.

From what I can tell, this thing has had a lot of years of people who don't know what they are doing, messing with the wiring.  There are wire nuts on the 12V stuff, taped up wires, bare wires, melted wires that have been re-run - you name it.  It's a little scary to be honest, but I need to get it home so trying to sort out as much as I can.

Does anyone happen to know where the brake light switch is located on this thing or have a general theory of operation on the wiring?  I really wish I had a wiring diagram but that is probably wishful thinking. 

Thanks all,


Wil

Hey all, Just saw where some some guy in the Newell Facebook Group is selling #638. I cant seem to cop the link but but he does have 3 pics of the exterior. Its in south Florida. His name is Charles Thomas.

Anyone interested in a 2002 #629  45ft with tag 4 slides 1 queen 1 bath Newell?  Slides need hydralics fixed.  89,000miles. Runs great brand new Toyo tires all the way around. Located in swfl. Due to death priced to sell $99,950. PM if interested.

Its pretty nice looking

Hi there!
  I have, in my 1996 a master unit for the intercom in a back closet. It has a small plastic door over one side. And I have located the jacks for the handset units.

Can anyone tell me WHICH Aiphone TD units I need to put the system back in working order. TD-?? 3 channel, 6 Channel a combination?

Help!

Thanks!

My number 1 a/c started pulling VERY high amps on start up.  Enough so my Hughes PowerWatch would shut down.  Looked quickly and it went to 62 amps on one leg and shut off completely.  Any ideas?  I’m not an a/c specialist but am reasonably handy and will go up when weather clears and remove the cover to look for any obvious issue.
Any and all thoughts appreciated.  Happy 4th to all.

Thanks,
Terry

Since I do not have the Dana IFS, and ordered 2 new Airbags for it, I have 2 brand new in the box Firestone Riderite W01-358-9200 airbags. These are the exact same ones that Newell is selling.

They replace the W01-358-8087 airbags that are no longer available. I have been told the air inlet may require an small adapter depending upon the particular installation in your coach.

I paid 261.76 for each.

Take them both for 500.00 plus shipping. or pick them up in New York at your leisure.

Elsewhere on this forum is a list of stuff I am looking for, would be happy to trade.

Thanks,

Helping a fellow Newell owner & Guru with an air leak.  The 110V air compressor spitter valve was leaking air through when the air compressor was running--valve is supposed to close when the air compressor runs and then open when the compressor stops.

Valve is manufactured by HWH
Part #RAP 6354 (AP19508)

The valve is attached to the bottom of the small air dryer with two wires coming from it.


   

Hello,  

I'm thankful to have found this group and wealth of knowledge/ information/ experience. I was already able to get the correct ignition solenoid part number by searching thru the forum. I purchased this coach about a month ago. They didn't have the owners manual anymore and I'm not sure where they came up with the model number but?  I'd say it was meant to be since it was within budget and only 20 minutes away ! The previous owners bought it in 82/83? from the original owner who was a friend and apparently always regretted selling it. They took great care of it over the years and hated to sell it, but they just couldn't safely operate it any longer because of some health issues. So far seems to run great with just over 140k miles. Tires are new along with all the batteries. Given the current price of diesel I don't have any plans to take any long trips anytime soon. It's going to be my primary residence for the next few years at least. I don't have a project list yet but plan on going over all the systems and update/ fix any issues I find. At least the built in toaster works ! What more could I need, lol . 

Cheers

                   

Anybody else altering their summer plans based on weather? Lytton, B.C., has broken the record for the hottest temperature ever recorded in Canada for a third straight day, hitting a scorching 49.6 C on Tuesday.
The latest record was broken as a historic heat wave continues to scorch Western Canada, leading to a spike in sudden deaths in B.C. and dangerous wildfire conditions.
Lytton, a village in the Fraser Canyon located about 260 kilometres northeast of Vancouver, also saw record-breaking highs of 47.9 C on Monday and 46. 6 C on Sunday. Before this week, the highest temperature ever recorded in Canada was 45 C in Saskatchewan in 1937.
"It is so incredibly intense," said Bernie Fandrich, a Lytton resident and president of the local chamber of commerce. "It's a perpetual oven door open, and it's just too hot."
The community pool is closed due to technical issues and people have only a few air-conditioned coffee shops where they can seek refuge. Fandrich said the streets of the small village, which at last census count had under 250 residents, are virtually deserted.
"People are indoors and mind you, Lytton is usually not the centre of the universe anyway. But that's even less so now," he said, speaking to CBC Radio on Wednesday.

My plan is to visit the Oregon coast. I'm sure there will be a lot of people inland that will also be heading to the Oregon coast, but I have a friend of over 50 years that has RV parking at his house.

Over the past week, I had water dripping down my windshield of our 2015.
I checked the roof and even under the A/C cover, but didn't know what I was looking for.  

soooo...online I go...

Ok, now that I've been "educated" via research, I'm now aware that our Coleman Mach A/C units have a little Condensate Pump that pumps the water out a tube.  But, something's not doing its job; either it's:

1. Plugged line
2. Bad float
3. Bad pump

Anyone find that this lines just need to be blow out from the bottom up on occasion?  I'm afraid to be very aggressive...who knows what would happen these days. LOL

Maybe it's safe and many have done it, so thanks in advance.

hey All,
  I t seems that I have no workable sewer host at the moment. I am looking for a 90 deg adapter that will attache to the powered dump valve then turn 90 deg allow for a valterra connector to exit the bottom of the coach.

I've seen and read a few threads, but most of the links are dead. I see a 45 deg one on Dupree's site. And what's the difference between the adapter and the HOSE adapter on their site?

Any hint?

Thanks!
