    So my rocker switch went out last winter and i have replaced it many times since with i think cheap switches that just don't hold up.
First replacement worked then the light went out then another switch light popped right away then switch froze up. Currently just bought a new switch and light popped but switch works. I have gone through probably 10 switches since last winter. is now at the point that I am second guessing my wiring but I have pics of what I believe are the original.

Seems to me the switches made now are on the junkie side. Called parts at newell, there is a new person there now. He said he would have to look into it and have never called back, that was last week. i am attaching a picture, the switch in question is second in from the right with a white wire in front.

Any help is appreciated.

Syd Horn    [email protected] New list was posted and price was dropped to $900.00 but you have to purchase it all.

Here is a rear suspension air system diagram that Richard Entrekin & I put together so we could understand the air flow in the rear suspension. This schematic applies to coaches that have one rear six pack and covers years from the 90s into the 2000s. An important fact that is not clear in the schematic is that the tag axle air tank is actually two tanks that are separated on the inside. We hope this will help others troubleshoot their systems.

does anyone know the history of the 04 that M.O.T. has for sale ??

I have just traded my 505 Newell for a smaller coach at Motor Homes of Texas.  As I have said before at my age it is less stressful driving a smaller coach.  Also we do like State Parks. What I traded for was a 36 foot 04 Foretravel.  36 foot is sorta rare.  The coach has been taken very good care of and has one slide.  Has a ISL 400 horse Cummins with 74,000 miles.
I have debated a long time in doing something like this because I really loved my Newell.  This Foretravel came along and looked like it was for us.  I have enjoyed the Forum and all my great friends I have made.   I do not plan to drop my membership and will keep reading the great topics often.  I would not have been able to solve many of my coaches problem if it had not been for so many knowledgeable members.
MOT will be selling this coach and if anyone is interested in it, it will make someone a very good coach.  I have owned it going on 5 years and it has served me well.  It has been in storage most of its life when not on the road.  Front tires are one year old, drive two years old and tags are 5 years old in Dec.  Coach batteries one year old and engine batteries are two.  All service and filter changes are up to date.

Need some thoughts from you all...I have 2 marker lights up front, one under the passenger side window, and one under the driver side window at floor level that aren't working.  All the rest of the markers are on.  When I took one marker light off, put clips on it and attached to a battery, the light is working. However, the wires (one brown and one red) are not hot and go up inside somewhere. I believe the brown wire is ground and goes to a terminal behind the kick plate in front of the passenger seat. I'm only seeing one terminal that is marked, "marker lights"  and there are 6 white wires at that terminal.

There is a white wire going to the Marker Light fuse. I believe there are 16 marker lights, but these two are the only ones not hot.  I assume there is some kind of junction box somewhere that those Marker Light wire go to...

Tom...have you had a situation like this?

Ed

I'm in a dry camping scenario where I'd like to leave my marker lights on during the night.  I'm concerned that they may draw down the chassis batteries too far.  I know I can use my "emergency start" switch to temporarily merge the house bank with the chassis in that case, but, meanwhile...  if I'm running my generator, will the coach charge the chassis batteries at some point?

I know on my Newmar there was a bidirectional relay with some logic that would cross-bus the batteries whenever there was a charge source on one side and the other side got low.

Alternatively, would there be any downside to leaving the "emergency start" merge on for a whole week?  If this is not a constant-duty solenoid I imagine that would be bad.  

Thanks guys!

Ben

New to Newell but have been RVing for 25years
We found a really nice clean all original 1989 Coach, lucky ?

spent some time on the roof of our coach. I replaced the OTA with the new style (that Newell puts on new units). I had to plate over 
the hole left by old antenna. I should have been an easy fix, BUT it required many trips up-down the ladder. due to poor planning
Got to replace power switch tomorrow

I am not sure if this applies to HWH slides but on Valid's when the slide comes in a rod about 1-2 inches in diameter moves downward into the bays it may be from the floor I'm not sure. But the number 3 slide pin descends into the wheel well ,inside the tag axle.. there is a cover that covers the one in the wheel well. This keeps the pin clean and also keeps exhaust and road grime from getting in when the pin is down. The cover is made of plastic and is foamed in the wheel well which seals it. When my tire blew it destroyed the cover. The challenge was getting the foam to stick since I was spraying  the foam upward, the foam kept wanting to drip  down before it set. So I took those blue disposable shop towels and used those to help hold it up,till it set. The towel is irretrievably mixed in with the foam because it is soo sticky but I figured the paper towel wear off..
