Photo Preparing for Glass Dash

In preparation for getting my dash converted to Glass Dash, I have taken out my existing dash, with the help of Steve (thanks, Steve) and a friend who is an auto mechanic and sent it to SilverLeaf Electronics.  They will remake a dash that the Glass Dash will fit in. Originally, I was planning on having one of SL Techs fly over to my house and do the install, but my mechanic friend thinks he can do it. So, I called SL and talked to Art. He said there was no reason why we wouldn't be able to do it ourselves. I'm posting a few pictures of what the mechanical dash looks like. Hopefully, I'll post some additional pictures when I have it done and report on how it is working.  Meanwhile, if anyone has any suggestions I would love to hear them.
Regards to All!

  Sharp R9H76 Convection Microwave

I was cooking in convection mode and it shut down completely. The breaker is on and the TV works so the circuit seems to be working. Nothing lights up on the face.
Is there a fusible link or fuse? How do I remove it?

Thanks,

  Right leaning...

Yes, we DO lean right politically and our coach seems to follow suit... Lol 
When we either air up all the way (full UP position) or in travel mode the coach leans to the passenger side a little.  How is this adjusted please?  I would guess ride height valves but not sure...  
We are on fairly level ground but I don't think that should matter.  This is only a big deal when it rains hard and we are away and cannot lean the coach left - I would like the coach to lean toward the driver side if not level...

  Fighting air

Been working on Cannons 07, problem with 110 air. 
When we run engine to fill all supply tanks. Then shut down, the 110 compressors don't run for nearly 20 minutes. 
After that, they start every 3 minutes . 
No obvious leak, yes we have repaired 12-15 small leaks.
We have closed all regulators found, including slides and toilet, also the genny air bags!
It doesn't matter what we select in the leveling system, it will hold position for 12-18 hrs.
Possible check valve allowing aux. tank to bleed into main tanks?
We are at stand still. 
Not finding obvious leak??? 
Any ideas please!

  Overweight!

I have a 95 non slide and just got it weighed today. Steer 15260 lbs, drive 20500 lbs, tag 8740.
My axle limits are 14000 steer, 23000 drive, and 10000 tag.  I have a normal 265 gal tank fwd the rear wheels, and 175 gal. water tank fwd of that. Running about 200 gals in rear tank and full water, empty sewage, and normal gear for traveling. I believe my problem is the front [behind the front wheels] 85 gal generator tank, which has about 70 gals in it. My aqua-hot is in the compartment behind it.
I know I could run the generator tank empty, and drop about 500 lbs, but it appears my gen and aqua-hot suction and return lines only go into fwd tank.  My tag is not adjustable, but even if I lower the pressure on those bags, do not think it will make enough difference and may overload the drive axle. Just bought new 24.5 11r h range for the front. [7100 lbs a 120 psi] so axle, and tires, are overloaded.
Any suggestions?

my bedroom slide pins wouldnt engage when slide was in.  mine has magnets on the top of the slide near the pin hole and one had come off.  cleaned it up and super glued it back on.  works fine.  i had never used the slides without the engine running, but they went in and out just fine.  

it was the first real work i had done in the new shop.  

having the genie lift made it easy

and of course i had to play a little pinball too

  generator smells?

Dear Gurus, When staying at the races, we are getting way too many smells of the generator in the coach. Ours has the 17KW Yanmar in the front bay with the sliding exhaust tube feeding the mufflers and vertical exhaust pipe that is about mid-coach on the driver's side. When we use the coach exhaust fan, that seems to make the smells worse. I can't say fumes because neither CO detector alarms and both are new.

Has anyone changed the generator exhaust seal that allows the generator to slide in and out? Also, how important is that wall covering at the rear of the generator compartment?

Thanks!

Dear Gurus,

Just curious what service 8V92s usually provide? How many miles before overhaul?
