Welcome aboard.

Rhonda and I are up the road in Inverness, HWY 44 off I-75.

If the engine is DDEC controlled, I strongly recommend that you fit the coach with VMSPc, from Silverleaf. The gauges are notoriously inaccurate.

Thank you!

You are pretty close, I wish I had space and a hook up! (now I know what they are for!  ) I work closer to were you guys are (North Tampa Area)

I have all the component and designed a circuit board to read the DDEC but it turns out that it is not DDEC, I was told that the engine is probably a year older and it is entirely mechanical so I'm researching on how to add sensors and get some digital readings instead of analog ones. Every 10-15 minutes, for the first 1000 miles, I will scan all the gauges looking of ANY change in them, on top of that the dashboard is not designed to be user friendly and the "backlights" are not helping read them at night (the needles are white and the marks are also white so it is difficult to read them unless you really pay attention to each one and the are inclined facing upwards to make it more difficult. I have plans to fix that and make it mostly digital.

Some of those sensors are going to be really easy to do, like reading cooling temps, but other ones I have NO clue how to read, like RPM, torque, turbo pressure, temp, etc. I'll eventually find out how it works because I don't want to miss a read on the temp gauge, for example, and ride with a hot engine for 1 more second than needed.

Anyway, I'll keep the group posted of this changes as I do them.
