Forum: Air Operated Systems and Leaks
- Replies (6)

        In the front bay, passenger side of my coach, is where the switch to activate the 120v air compressor resides. There is a pressure switch that feeds 120v to a relay that feeds the air compressor. There is a loose white wire that was on the other side of this relay which is now not connected. It may look like it's connected in the photo, but it's loose. The set screws are rusted so I can't tell where it was connected. I bought a new base to re-wire this. Where does the loose wire connect. Please excuse me if I have component terms wrong. Smile

I have a large paint chip on the front of the coach (generator panel cover) that I would like to keep from falling off. It is starting to curl up a little at the edges. I know nothing about paint and am asking for any advice on what I can use to glue or otherwise adhere this chip in place. Any miracle adhesive or technique to share?

Forum: Discussion regarding selling your Newell
- Replies (3)

When I made the decision to sell mine, I took it to Motorhomes of Texas. 
We had discussed pricing in advance and confirmed the condition of my coach on my arrival. 
I left it there and was on my way in 30 minutes. They told me it would be approximately three weeks before they 
had it detailed and photographed for advertising. 
Six days later they called with an offer. I countered and we made a deal. 
I was very happy with the whole process and would highly recommend them.

I’m sure that I’ll miss having it but wouldn’t be using it for the next 18 months. 
As you all know, a Newell or any modern R.V. doesn’t do well sitting unused.
I’m hopeful the new owners enjoy it as much as I did.

In the midst of brake service , beginning at the front , I find that there is one shock absorber per side even though there are mounts for a second shock . On the left there is a radius in the undercoating that seems to indicate there was a shock there at one time . I was wondering if other classics in the group have one or two shocks per side in the front ?
 I will post findings as to the brakes in the appropriate area . 
Thanks,
Chris

Saw a beautiful 2000’s maybe or newer Newell last night on the Eisenhower bridge going into Maryland from DC/Virginia.  Of course it was raining and bad weather - I like driving in that kind of weather but not many folks do... at least they had good headlights!
