I ran across this DVM in Lowes the other day for 120 bucks. I know it's not a Fluke, but it does have AC and DC current sensing which is unusual for a meter of this price. It also has a temp sensor probe. And the ability to measure capacitors (i.e. motor start caps), and diodes.

Although I have (wait I ain't tellin the actual number) of voltmeters, I didn't have one with DC current. So, of course it made it's way into the buggy.  I thought this was a really neat tool to keep on the Newell.

Born and raised in South Louisiana, fixing things from a young age till it blossomed into an actual career, still at it- found the site in my quest to find a good mid 90's Newell to replace my current motorhome. Hopefully it will be my last ! Should finalize a sale on my other unit soon then if the good lord helps me to locate the right newell i will be on here often i am sure.

Thanks,

I started the coach the other day after sitting since october , it  cranked a little more than usual and when it started the yellow check engine and the red stop engine lights were on. It ran for about 30 seconds then quit ,the only way it would keep running was by hitting the override switch ? The oil presure was fine on the gauge , maybe there is a reset switch or something ? Could be hard to track down !

I took the cover off above the drivers seat where the two speaker are located and this is what was behind the cover.  Looks like several relays and two black ADS boxes on the left.  What do these two boxes do?  I am planning on doing some updating on the sound system, like for one thing replacing the Yamaha AV receiver that probably came with the coach.

We need/want to replace the sofa bed cushions on our '87. The frame & structure are in very good shape - so don't see the need in replacing the whole unit, unless that was the only option. 

Any advice?

Marc

Since we parked yesterday, the step would open and close each time I would open and close the door. I know there is a switch on the entrance console, but it did not matter which position the switch was in. 

Well that was just plain weird. 

I just noticed that the DD Prodriver was still on. Hmmmmmm. If the step thought the ignition was still on it would act like it was acting. I put the key in and out several times, switched to on and off several times but the Prodriver was still on. Hmmmmmm, some more. Just for grins I turned the wheel until the lock caught it. Voila, Prodriver turns off, step behaves normally. 

So, something about the way this coach is wired, the steering wheel lock has to pop before it thinks you are really off. 

Go figure.
