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?

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!

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..

hope any of you that are near the hurricane are ready for it.  let us know how it goes

        Was able to do them this eve my self took about 15 mins a side.. thank you Tom for the part number.. hardest part was taking the wheel off and on brakes themselves took maybe 5 mins..

Gurus,

(please forgive my pride)

I just wanted to share a picture of my coach.  As I turned the corner at the Bella Terra RV Resort, I caught sight of my coach.  I stood there and just marveled at how well these coaches hold up.  For a 15 year old coach with almost a quarter million miles....it still looks pretty good.  I wouldn't trade my coach for any other coach here.  

I'll leave here tomorrow and head towards Texas and then north to the mother ship.

Cheers,
bill

It hit me today that in june 2007 i bought my 90 newell.  in november 2010 i bought my 2002.  it is hard to believe it has been over 10 years i have had newells.  

darlene and i have loved the time we have spent in our newells.  more than that, the dear friends we have made and have.  a day hardly goes by without talking or communicating with one or more of you.  

thank you to all of you who have taken the time to become our friends.  

happy tuesday

tom

Just a heads up.

The THM filters from Everpure have been discontinued, with the H-1200 filters cited as a "direct replacement". The H-1200's provide additional filtration over the THM's.

However -- the H-1200's are longer and at least in my coach, cannot be installed in the current configuration. I didn't measure when I was down there but I would guess they were maybe about 5-6" longer.

You can still find some places with the THM filters. I've reordered them with the expectation that I'll need to do some reconfiguration in the water bay next year to get H-1200's to fit.
