I picked up my 2018 Newell about 4 weeks ago and I absolutely LOVE it!!!!  This is my first Newell, and also my first motor coach :Smile!

I'm learning all of the systems and doing pretty good but, I tried to fill one of the tires on the tag axle today using the air hose from the engine compartment.  There wasn't enough air pressure even though I had the engine running and I pumped the brakes to make sure the compressors were running.  I looked for a valve to turn on but couldn't find anything.

Can anyone shed some light on how to use this?

Thanks,

Gregory Miller

hi all,

my coach is a 2002 and has the tag and drive wheel brakes activated when the emergency air brake is applied.  bill johnson and i were talking and figure they did that from late 90's till 2004 sometime.  

what it causes on mine is a lot of rear axle groaning, popping and when i leveling the coach i have to take the e brake on and off several times.  when i release the e brake the coach will lurch and change level.  in talking to newell, it is a known problem.

it is most annoying.  so my question is this.....is there any reason i couldnt disconnect the air e brake from the tag wheels and just have it on the drives like i believe alot of the coaches have done?

any thoughts?

tom

    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.

Brad

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.

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.
