RV particulars: 1997 Gulfstream Scenic Cruiser
Driveline Cummins 8.3, Allison 6 speed
Miles: 42,000
Year: 1997
Break down Description: I stopped at a traffic light and noticed the high rpm at about 1100.
Symptoms: After shifting to neutral I could not shift to forward because of the high rpms.
Effect: Towed to a nearby Target parking lot, got the ok to park there from the store manager until Monday (it was Sunday late in the afternoon) to have it towed to an Allison service center. After a while and trying to look up the error message on the shift key pad, I hit the power button on the cruise control and the rpms dropped to idle range. I drove the rest of the way home and had to turn the cruise on and off every time I slowed or stopped at traffic light.
Cause: The ECO Cruise malfunctioned and intermittently would set the rpms to 1100.
The company is out of business so I am in the process of replacing it with a new one from Cruise King.
