looking for owners of 2004-2005 Pace Arrows

[Jim_Bakker]

I'd like to make contact with others who own one of the new (2004, 2005) Pace Arrows so we can share experiences, problems, good things, etc.

Water leak in bedroom. I can't figure out how or where it's getting in. It drips off the ledge in the picture into the pan. We only have this happen when the slide is in. Anybody else have this happen?

So far so good. I will see later this year in Kentucky when it gets cold and I run both furnaces.

I'll bet you never notice the difference. I went 10 amps less in the one I bought last year, can't remember exact size, but something like you did, and I have not noticed any difference.

It will take your batts a bit longer to charge.
Other than that, you may notice your lights a bit more dim when running multiple 12VDC loads, although I can't think of that many beyond the lights themselves.

OK, getting lazy and not looking for my glasses to read the number on my old converter might have cost me. I thought the old converter said 55 amps and that is what I bought and I opened the box to read the paperwork (now they will not take it back). When I pulled the old one out it had 65 amps. ooooops. I had to put the new one in, I am on the road. My question is, what problems will or could I have with a 10 amps smaller converter?

WIND SHIELD WIPERS Problem
I have an 05 Pace on a W24. Replaced the Windshield motor a couple of years ago. Since then I had the problem of wipers not turning off. Now however the wipers only work on High and the sprayer works but does not turn on the wipers. Have to time it right to turn the wipers off when they are not in the middle of windshield. I tried a new motor, and that is not the problem. I traced the wires all the way back to the motor and the only plug in the line is fine. The ground is clean and looks good. Any suggestions, I know others have had this problem, my bother in law has the exact same issue on his 04 Southwind. Would love to hear what has been done to correct this issue.

Isn't this the problem where the wiper connection inside the fuse(?) box had corrosion on it, it was posted awhile back. May be slightly different in that I have had them, like the original poster, where they just won't shut off.

Should have said connection box not fuse box, where the wires from the wiper connected.

Remember, Greg, some large RVs use relays along with fuses to light long strings of lights. Check for a relay not inserted fully in a socket, or for a corroded or broken wire near a relay.

No tail lights and then some...
I have;
No tail lights
No clearance lights on the right side
No backup lights on the right side
There are 2 fuses for the tail lites, L&R, in a box in the engine comp. The fuses are good.

I do have brake and turn sig. lites and all red lites at the top in the back work.

When I take the round plug apart there are 2 contacts that are hot from the front, when the lites are turned on, but there are no wires coming from those locations in the mating half going to the rear.

The flat plug on the left has a white with black wire that is hot when the lights are turned on. It goes back and up the the left side.

Anybody got any hints?

Picture of plug is here- copy and paste into address bar.

I am looking for a kids football shape porch light (amber) lens that came factory on the 2004 pace arrow. I called fleetwood owner services and the replacement light that they have is a different style. All i really need is the lens.

For my 2005 the OEM PN was 395194 complete light asy. Fleetwood now only stocks the amber lens for it, PN 538295. $5.95. I think it is same light as on 2004.

I replaced mine with an LED light from Starbright (I think?) that I got off Amazon. LED and motion sensor. Base is larger than the original, so covered it up just fine. 2 screws and 3 wires.

Easy Peasy

Thanks, I didn't realize that box was there...The fuses are good! There are left and right tail light fuses, both good. The bulbs are good too.
