I just picked up my Lance 1988 LC 780 Saturday the 25th. And It needs lots of work. Started by pulling all the stuff out ( seat cushions, the little widow unit they left in it. They had it on a frame and placed the window unit in the pass-through window. They made a home-made mattress to go in the cab over it was 3 inches thick and made with soft foam, The stove didn't work so its gone. They dropped the vent hood, and it was trashed its gone ) started cleaning and checking it out. The vent covers they are all cracked, ( new vents on the way ) ordered a new stove it will be here the 1st. I cleaned some more emptied all the old spices and canned goods left in it. I had to fix one drawer that was broken.
THE CAB OVER AREA IS NOW CLEAN.
Lights now I learned something when I removed the vent hood, I cut the wires then later I noticed that all the lights on the right side where dead ( they were working ) So after about three hours of troubleshooting I found out they are in series cut one wire, and the rest get no power. I FIXED THAT at the moment the right-side lights are working. I have to work on the florescent lights I have to figure out are they 12 v or 110. They were working when I looked at it ( I am hooked up to an extension cord from the side of the house maybe not enough power? )
This weekend I plan to install the stove and clean the Kitchen area re weather strip the door.
