Try "Goo Gone" it works good on removing marks. You can get it at WalMart or any hardware stores.
Good Luck
Thanks Paul ~ I'll give that a try ~ :h
I just hope that I haven't dyed the dash - hope I find a solution! - Paul_TurpinExplorerTry "Goo Gone" it works good on removing marks. You can get it at WalMart or any hardware stores.
Good Luck - dkingdoeExplorerHey guys ... I need some suggestions ==
Our dash is leather or something similar to the ultraleather like the rest of the furniture. I bought a black metal mesh tray that has little black rubber feet, and the other day I noticed that everywhere that tray has been on the dash there are little round marks on the dash.
:h I have tried everything I know of - even clorox/water mixture - to remove the stains with no results.
Anyone have any suggestions?? - Paul_TurpinExplorerSorry you are having problems with your Pace Arrow. If you reviewed the 100 some pages on this post some of your problems had been addressed so you can pass the fix onto the Service Center. I know that I went through the slideout leaking and it was a quick fix if it is leaking like mine. Fleetwood has been very good to me on getting things fixed if you work with them and have a good attitude. If you go in there with a chip on your shoulder you will turn the employees off and they will put you on the "I don't care if your rig gets fixed or not list".
Good luck and I hope everything gets fixed to your liking. If you need help read this post and ask questions, there are a lot of good info on this post. - kormiadminExplorerHave had nothing but problems!! 2006 36D 8000 miles.
Trans went out at 3500 miles on HWY1,CA.
Slide outs (both leak and continue to leak).
Backup camera never has worked correctly.
Cabinets replaced from water damage (slide out leaks).
Cabinets replaced from water damage from skylights leaking (both).
I opened up the battery box and saw corrosion, when under the battery box and found duct tape holding up a metal bar, I cut the duct tape and the bar fell on the ground.
The passenger side dash vibrates so bad it cracked the trim molding.
The parking brake stays on unless you tap the dash or adjust the steering column.
Running lights shorting out.
Fleetwood has a list of 38 items that need to be repaired or replaced.
Just to name a few items...so I'm wondering if anyone out there is having the same problems?? Check under your battery boxes!!
email me if you have the same issues please.
Thank you.

TESTING PARK POWER...I need your advice on 50amp VoltMeters to check park power and/or Surge Proctectors?
Do you use them?
What kind?
Where to buy?
Do you think they're necessary?
and ALL comments? ...THANKS!!
Yep, I use an EMS unit made by Progressive Industries. You have a choice of a unit that plugs into the power pole or one you can integrate into your coach. Protected me from several low power and power spike conditions at parks. - Paul_TurpinExplorerUPDATE and BIG thanks to waOmqe!!!!!!!!!!

I finally was able to get the moho in to a Michelin Dealer and get the tires inspected for the cracking. The Dealer looked at them and said, "no problem, Michelin will Warranty them." He also stated he'd seen a few tires come in with my same problem. Repeating the description of my problem, this is apparently not normal weather/ozone cracking. The cracking is right along the lettering that is close to the rim.
The quote I got was Michelin will warranty $318 per tire. This is based on the amount of tread left. The new price for this tire is $365 at this particular dealer, so my payout will be $47 per tire plus I have to pay for the mounting and balancing. Dealer said he thought balancing was a waste. On large truck and moho type tires it supposedly doesn't do any good. At a minimum he said only balance the fronts.
In any case it's going to cost a little under $500 to replace all six tires including the tax and labor. Needless to say, I told him to order the tires.
Just got back from the tire shop with 6 new Michelin tires. Like waOmge stated, that was not normal weather cracking and Michelin took care of it. I only had to pay $67 a tire. Again, thanks to this forum, it save me a LOT of money. - Jim_BakkerExplorer

I use a device that I bought at the Indio FMCA rally several years ago--from Progressive Electronics, I believe. I do know the company is from Cary, NC. It's mounted in my utility bay; between the shore power cord and the existing coach electrical system. Protects against high and low voltage, open ground, reverse polarity, and surge. Wouldn't be without it! - Fyr_guyExplorer

dkingdoe, based on the lack of responses I'd guess 50 amp Voltmeters are not used by the group. I personally do not use them, maybe I should but everytime I look at the price tag on the Autoformer's out there, I get cold feet.

Surge Protector, you bet, I use it every time and you have to completely believe in it. I have been at a few parks where the Surge Protector kept turning off the power to my unit. When I contacted the park manager they would say it was my Surge Protector and not their power post. I never believe the park people, I never turn it off (they will tell you to turn it off), I move to a different site and then no problems with the electric. One time, I moved to several sites and all where setting off the surge protector, I left the park to one down the road and no problems there. For some reasons a lot of the park managers don't like them and will always blame the protector. Also, get the Surge Protector that protects you from low voltage, that is going on more at the RV parks. You can search the forum on all of the posts on low voltage damage that can be done over time. I had some RV Parks that get full on a holiday that went down to only 90 volts.
I also test the power post with a voltmeter for low voltage, wires cross, bad ground, open neutral, etc and you can buy one at Home Depot or any hardware store. They are easy to use and come with directions. It only take a few minutes and I keep it with the rig power cord sitting on top so I don't forget.
