We saw you eastbound on I64 just out of Lex KY, Thursday afternoon May 1.

Here is an ad I saw on another site & thought some one might be interested.

Cleaning out some of my spare stuff. I used the Silverleaf system to monitor engine information and diagnostics. I connected it to a cheap Dell Inspiron duo (laptop with a flip screen) and it worked great. I monitored complete set of engine data and diagnostics running down the road.

VMSpc Kit

VMSpc JIB (JS501)

6 ft USB cable

5 ft engine diagnostic harness and 6 pin connector
CD with software

Owner's Manual

Retails for around $400. For sale for $200.

More information on on the Silverleaf website:

Could make you a deal on a Dell computer if interested.

There is a unit with two fans mounted on it under my coach in front of the drive axle. Is this part of my basement rear ac system?

Does anyone know of a good place in the above areas? I know we could stay at that park in Pacifica but would rather not. Also, as far as Pleasanton, we've did the fairgrounds about ten years ago and were not too pleased. This last time we were there we stayed at Del Valle state park, about 5 miles from Livermore and loved it, but no cell service. And since Gary is still working we need it. Any suggestions would be most appreciated! We've got kids in Oakland, San Francisco and Pleasanton. And a good friend in Napa. Susie

OK so while heading to a TT Park I noticed that the Jake Brake wasn't working-----No Sound when letting off of the throttle.
I have already checked the DC Voltage at the Forward Terminal Strip and Fuse Block as well as the After Terminal Strip----Purple Wire in our case. Checked with the Engine Running and the Switch Off--No Voltage, then the Switch On Voltage (nominal 12 Volts).
Having not had to look into this before I could use some direction on a 6V92 Jacobs Brake.
thanks in advance!

Hey guys, Gary and I are in Santa Fe at Trailer Ranch in town. Come on by if you're in the area! Susie and Gary

PS. Has anyone heard from Carol Brooks? She wrote a long msg about learning to drive the Newell from Glenn at Newell. I just did the same thing and would like to connect with her. I sent her a pm a few months ago but haven't heard from her and she doesn't appear to be posting.

Recently, a question was posed by a Guru as to the shortest Newell with a slide. Realizing that there are about 15 Newells made since 1989 that I do not have a valid VIN for and therefore don't know the exact length, the shortest Newell with a slide that I am aware of (unless I have a VIN error) is 39' 6". That is a 2015, coach #1505. After that, there are five that I am aware of that are 40' 6":

#616, a 2002 double slide
#652, a 2003 (# of slides unknown)
#724, a 2005 (# of slides unknown)
#748, a 2005 triple slide with a STEERABLE TAG
and #1471, a 2013 (double slide with a STEERABLE TAG)

We would like to install a TV in one of the bays. The bay next to the midentry door has two holes where it looks like a TV swivel had been. Also, electrical plug next to it and cable wires on the other side of the bay. We also have a Norcold freezer in that bay. Wondering if they put the freezer in and took the tv out.

However, IF we install a TV with a swivel it appears that we would have to have the door closed. No problem, unless someone needs to exit or enter the coach. Then close the bay door with the TV, and then open the midentry door.

Also, as my husband says, "I am the driver, not the mechanic." So, what would it entail to attach a Tv, which we already have. And how would it be possible to connect it to our satellite? Please excuse our ignorance! Thanks, Susie

i was driving from mesa to wittmann saturday about lunch time and saw a beautiful late model newell with brown sirls and alot of stainless going towards mesa on the 202E.

I took the coach out of storage about two weeks ago. This week I have had it parked in a campground that Clark is staying at for the week. The weather didn't exactly cooperate with us but we did manage to get a couple projects done. Yesterday when I went out there are intention was to take the coach to have two new batteries installed and then do some other repairs. However after we took the coach off level and started it and never came up to ride height. We put it on the leveling system and brought it manually up. After turning off the leveling switch the driver side sunk to the ground. The passenger-side did stay aired up. We did this several more times the driver-side kept collapsing. So we left it on air level and air it up and drove it over to the garage that usually does repairs on it for me.

When we first got the coach two years ago we redo all of the air valves in the back engine compartment. There is a forward babe by the front tire on the passenger side that has another six pack of air valves that are actually different looking visual see in the pics that I will post. I need to figure out what type of these are and buy new ones to replace them since they're obviously original I'm probably going to go bad eventually. Wondering though if anybody has any ideas of the symptoms Of this issue and what might've caused it. Still not exactly clear in my head how the solenoids work with the air leveling valves and who commands who to do what etc.
