- pianotunaNomad IIIHi toomoxy,
On my water heater the light only comes on to let you know there is a failure on the gas heating side. Yours may be the same.toomoxy wrote:
I also notice that my hot water heater light is not glowing when I push that.... hmmm what next...no hot water ??? - sundancer268ExplorerChecked out back A/C unit. The Condenser/Evaporator Fan is failing. Smells burnt and only runs for a few minutes. Will have to decide over the winter if I replace the motor and shroud or buy a new unit. Will have to think about it long and hard.
- sundancer268ExplorerReturned home from Platte River campground in Sleeping Bear National Lake Shore. Wish I was still there. While there I cleaned a Mud Dobber Nest out of my Air Suspension Dump Valves. I hate those Bugs. They will plug up any hole they can find and cause all sorts of problems.
- FIRE_UPExplorerWell boys and girls,
I posted this on another part but, it's all part of "what did you do..."
Long story short,
I have three issues with my 7.5 Quiet Diesel generator,
1. Code 33... indicating an over heat condition
2. No glow plug warming prior to cranking issue
3. An exploded magnet off the rotor
I'm in the middle of repairing all three right now. Fun stuff huh?

I think you will be happy with AGMs. I use them in a couple of applications, but have not yet put them in the motorhome. Maybe next time.
Not too be picky, but AGM and Gel cells are very different animals. They require different charging parameters. Gels will be damaged using the normally higher voltages used (ie 14.4 +/-) in the bulk charge for AGM and flooded wet cells.
Here is a link that explains the difference if you are interested: http://www.batterystuff.com/kb/articles/battery-articles/battery-basics.html#3 - DiplomatRogExplorerWent and got 4 new AGM (gel type) 6V batteries.

- Poodle_PowerExplorerTook our 2012 Monaco LApalma to the dealer to have a couple of things taken care of. Power to the microwave comes and goes and the on demand water heater is so hot we can't shower without turning the water on and off. They are going to put a retrofit on it. what ever that does. Sure hope it works.
- HudsonerExplorerReplaced two sections of rusted out brake line!
Would like to recommend that everybody with an older F53 chassis inspect their brake lines near the front axles (at the point where the are running behind a heat shield) - RaymonExplorerI washed the roof. Found a small hole at the rear seam between the roof and rear end cap. will be getting some Eternabond to use for repairing. Otherwise, the roof was in excellent condition.
