Hi everyone, My name is Chris Hartmann. My wife and I own a 1984 Newell. We have owned it for a year now. The interesting thing about our Newell is that it was owned by my father Jack Hartmann before he passed away nearly 11 years ago.  He sold it to a family friend Ray Fauber. Ray kept it tucked safely away in a climate controlled building.  After minor maintenance and 6 new tires we took her on a 2 week trip south. She never missed a beat. We couldn't be happier to be part of the Newell family.  We live in SW Missouri and can't wait for our next trip and  hope to meet some fellow owners

Well we are on our way to our winter spot now in Ohio and the last few days I have noticed the tag tires chirping when coming to a stop.
I noticed the tag tires are much cooler than the drive so checked the pressure on the tag and it is where it has always been for the last almost 10 years. Also noticed the tire is not making as much a foot print on the ground. I added more pressure quite a bit more and no difference. So I guess it must be one of the solenoids. Anyone have any experience with this?
The pressure regulator comes off the bottom bunch of solenoids. I tried to measure voltage and couldn't get any reading from any of the solenoids including the top bunch to the drive axle bags but coach seems to sit ok. 
With the tag not bearing the load it used to now all the weight is on the drive axle. Got a few hundred miles to go today then will be stationary for a few days. Plan on stopping by Newell next monday for another situation and would like to fix this if possible.
Towing a trailer which seems to be helping in stopping.
I think I have extra solenoids, will check my stash.

Thanks 
Brad

Hey guys. I am some what in trouble. This morning I had my electric side of the aqua on as my generator was running anyways. When I turned off the electric the light stayed on above electric switch. Checked my amps and it shows 10amps as if the electric is not disengaging? any thoughts?  I then turned breaker off for the day and turned diesel side on for the day as I was leaving. Got home tonight and diesel blower motor packed it in. Temps in Canada now are in the 25 to 27 degrees overnight. Going to be a cool long evening. Going to have to cuddle tonight Idea
