I’m thinking about this park for spring break in March, looks like a decent park, several long and pull through sites; any feedback from anyone who’s stayed here?

My awning will not extend.  Unhooked wires at the switch and still no action.  Threw the awning breaker, waited 30 seconds and no change.  A while later the awning was fully extended.   So, motor works!  I had to hand crank it back in.  I suspect there is something going on with the wind sensor.  Does anyone have any ideas in this??
My coach is #646, an 03.  Thanks for any help!!

Anyone know who made the motorized sunscreens for the windsheild and front driver and passenger windows?
How do you change the set points?

hi all,  forest is here and we are working on his coach.  then i walked to the drivers side of mine and saw both slides had creeped out.  the bedroom one about an inch because the pins were down.  the salon slide about 3 inches because the pins were not engaged and the slide seal has rolled completely out in places.  

and the 2 inch trim piece below the slide on one piece has slid up and needs moved down and riveted.  

the seal is the original and has the paint from original done so it is about 18 years old.  so am thinking i probably should just put a new one in.  

newell says you can get it back in with some work but it will not be glued in anymore.  i would rather fix it right in the comforts of my shop than on the road somewhere.  

looks like it is time to make some slide support mechanisms to take the slide out.  

always something.

tom

Georgia and I would like to wish all of our Newell friends a wonderful 4th of July. We are truly blessed to live in a country where we are able to travel and enjoy the many wonders the United States has to offer.

Our liberties and freedom came at a stiff price to those forward thinking men and women who decided that we could thrive under a new form of government and were willing to bet their lives on it back in 1776.

I couldn't find any info on the headlights so wanted to share what other member's have helped me learn and give others the opportunity to add to this list based on their coach age.

This is the replacement parts for my 03 but may be helpful to start the search.

  • Low Beam - Hella 90mm Xenon part #68139 
  • High Beam - Hella 90mm Halogen part #68136
In addition to the parts listed above I was able to find a much better price at partshubdirect.com

Mine is a 1981 38' with 6V92TA and five-speed allison. It's not rough, but at 37 years old, it's no spring chicken either. I've grown quite fond of it over the years. Before this I had a '78 GMC Palm Beach, which I should have kept...my wife wasn't afraid to drive it and she loved to take trips in it. There was room for both; in fact, I had both for a couple of years before I foolishly sold the GMC. There was a Pace Arrow and a couple of class c's before that.

I've had my Newell for 11 years; it's a work in progress---doing a bit of a remodel at this time to reconfigure it for our full time final residence for my wife and I when I retire. Coincidentally, today is our 40th anniversary.

It was originally configured more as a party coach/family vacation type. I'm not making major changes really, but going all electric, with a full sized refrigerator, oven, drawer dishwasher, induction cooktop. Took out the couch that was behind the driver's chair and blocked and insulated that window; put a 55" plasma over it. Intend to build cabinetry around it and blend all that in with the galley...if I live long enough. It runs and drives great and I've taken it a few places, but these days it's mostly been my "man cave."

All,
How difficult is it to keep a Newell interior comfortable in Phoenix in August? My definition of comfortable would be 75 degrees. Thank you for any and all replies.
