I'm doing some research on interior layouts on Newell 45' coaches .I would like to see a schematic (with dimensions if possible) of typical floorplans. Can somebody point me in the right direction? Does anybody on the forum have a "blueprint" of your coach floorplan that you could share. My old '78 Newell came with several actual blueprints of the floor plan and wiring schematics!!! I have no such information for my '93.
Thx

Here is my AirSafe hitch installed. Now I can cover up the hole I had to cut in the bumper in order to use my previous hitch. Works like a charm...

My Stewart-Warner tachometer stopped working about 2.5 years ago. I would really like to get it working again, but really don't know where the sending unit is, or how to trouble shoot this properly. According to some this SW tach should be wired into the back of the gear driven alternator, but I cannot find any evidence it is connected there. Anyone here have a 6V92TA with a Stewart-Warner tach, besides Prarieschooner?

We spend alst 5 months in sunny and hot AZ & CA weather and i noticed one of the four fabric panels starting to fall apart , stiching got hammered by the sun and heat and just broke loose, so I had big long hole in the awning.

Trying to figure out some quick fix I bought 1" wide 3 M two side automotive tape and sticked both awning ends together, I know thsi amazing 3M tape can do the trick!!!
So far is holding very well!!

I alos used same tape in mounting bay's molding to the side of the coach , this stuff is super strong!!!

Hi All;
We have a 95 Newell coach 392, we are novices as fair as working on our unit...my poor husband, has a wife who is having a fit due to lack of hot water..if you get wet really fast in the shower and shut off the water, lather and shut it off, then turn it back on to rinse you can barely keep from freezing before you are done, that is without washing your hair!!!

This is on electric, with diesel it is immediately hot but does not last much longer...Washing a sink of dishes is not gonna happen no matter how conservative you are!!

I know this can not be right is it?? What are we doing wrong, is there something we have set wrong, not doing right?? We are camp hosting for 6 months and I know this will make me nuts if I have to take cold showers for 6 months!! Any help appreciated, as I said we are total novices to repairs etc, details please!!
best
Pat in the chilly Midwest!!

i called BODE and talked to their tech guy. the door is a BODE 3324.00
this parts list is posted with permission from Bode technical support.

the part number of the MAC valve is 45A-AA2-DDBJ-1JM 12v 5.4watts. i used my inspection camera to get in there and see the part number for the valve. the valve is the distinctive MAC Blue color with the white relay on it.

hi all,

i have been noticing my compressor coming on a lot more than it used to. i have looked for leaks till the cows come home and have not found any. used the fancy leak detector and all.

les posted about the air door can get stuck of the pin isnt lubricated.

so i thought i would go out and lube mine. i took the cover off and was sitting there with the door open on the steps inside. so i closed the door for some reason still sitting there. and i heard a hiss. i thought it was just finishing its close cycle so i sat a little longer. kept hissing. so...out comes the ultrasonic leak detector and i put earbuds in. it was leaking out the exhaust port of the MAC valve. only leaks when the door is closed. when open, nothing.

i called BODE and talked to their tech guy. the door is a BODE 3324.00

he talked to another tech and they both agreed that 95% of the time it is the mac valve that is bad or has something stuck in it.

the part number of the MAC valve is 45A-AA2-DDBJ-1JM 12v 5.4watts. i used my inspection camera to get in there and see the part number for the valve. the valve is the distinctive MAC Blue color with the white relay on it.

i found a new one on ebay for 25 bucks shipped (they wanted 35 and i offered 25 and they accepted).

i called and talked to Jim at Newell (their bode air door expert) and he confirmed that most of the time it is the valve. he asked if mine was a race coach and said that it could be the cylinder needs a rebuild kit if it had been opened and closed alot. the rebuild kit is 200 bucks so i will try the valve first.

both the valve and the cylinder can be done without taking the door off.

i will get the valve in the next week and try it. if not, i will get a rebuild kit.

les helped me to find the leak by getting me to go lube that pin.
