Well, here is what was the cause of all of this. The engine ECU failed. The Electronic Control Unit and the repair cost about $3300 parts/labor to get the rig going again. Dang computers.

Well, for that kind of money, I hope they gave you a big kiss ;).
If your primary issue was a failed ECU/VDU, that price seems high. I had the same coach for 2 years and had the cold solder joints referenced in this thread.

Takes about 15 minutes to R&R the gizmo on that coach.
Now maybe you had other things going on or it took the shop mucho labor hours to find the problem. Still, $3K sounds steep,
