Forum: Air Operated Systems and Leaks
- Replies (7)

Hello to all.  When I parked my coach last week (Wednesday 4/24) air compressor for the house systems was working fine.  


I came by today and the compressor is not working.  I have tried in both the 120v and 12v but it won't work in either one.  So obviously without air available systems like the toilet, doors, driver seat won't function.

I checked the breaker panel  and fuse panel in the back (bathroom) and didn't find one labeled for the compressor.

anyone ever run into this and have any insight on where to begin trouble shooting?

Gurus,

I left my dump valve open for a day or two and I just realized that my dump valve solenoid is leaking air.

I just happen to have ordered a spare solenoid and have it...but it is a lot different than the old one.

Here is the old.  (Leaking from the exhaust valve)
   

Here is the new
   

My question is what do I do with the wires?   I assume the center air port is the supply and the other two go to the dump valve.  Is the thing on top for an air muffler?  Will the old ones just screw on or do I need to order a muffler?

Has anyone tackled the replacement and have experiences to share?

Also, I tried to manually push down the plunger of the valve but could not budge it. If I pull the air lines, will I be able to move it. (I need to close it so that I can make my way to the rally).

Bill

I pulled in late and parked 3-4 spots down from a 500 to 600 series Newell. It may be one of you. I'll go introduce myself in the morning.

1st time here for Us, Great campground, on the Mississippi River. Large sites, a few nats.

howdy all,

the pocket door going into the bedroom has just started being flakey.  it closes ok, but takes quite a few times to get it to open.  you push the rocker switch to open and it makes the air swoosh, but door doesnt open.  eventually it will open.  it is not stuck physically.  

i think i can access the ram through a cover in the closet that is there in the hallway.  i assume the valve and solenoid is there as well?

any wisdom on what to look for?  there is enough air in the system.  

other pocket air door works fine.  

thanks

tom

Has anyone tried these washable air filters by Fleet Air  https://fleet-airfilters.com/pages/instructions  .  I am always looking to improve fuel mileage, and if I wait to replace my air filters when they have slowly gotten restricted, somewhere along the line a new one would be better than waiting till it hits the "red line" on the restriction gauge. But, at $180 to $200 for a new paper air filter, it doesn't make sense to replace them 2x's as often, or does it?

I'm just now replacing my filter and I should be getting new MPG results. But I'm not apples to apples in terrain so, i'm not sure I will have scientific MPG results.

But I would wash my "Washable" often and always be near optimum, I think.

I'll call for pricing tomorrow.

All,
My wife just came out of the coach after completing an inventory of everything on board.  We both had been sitting on the front porch perhaps a minute or two when we heard a load crash inside the coach.  Found a glass mirror from inside the bath had fell off the rear closet door crashing to the floor (she had been in that very closet).  These mirrors are not tempered glass, broken glass was everywhere. I shudder to think if one of us had been in the bathroom barefoot getting ready for bed or a shower. 

The mirror looked like it was original and bonded to the door with 3M 77 spray adhesive.  I have to ask, has anyone else seen their mirror(s) fall off? 

I will be inspecting the remaining mirrors for integrity....any ideas on a good bonding adhesive that is designed for glass mirrors?

Thanks,
Steve

Not sure the front dash is considered a ‘firewall’ but that’s all I know to call it.  I need to get a new wire from the inside of the coach to the outside for some LED light strips I’m running.  I know there are other 12-volt sources I could use but I need the new controller box to be inside and then run an extension wire (5 wires) to the underside of the coach to connect to the new light strip.
I searched and could not find anything here...
