Re: Norcold 1210 - replace with AC only compressor
About 4 yrs ago I installed the JC refrigeration HVAC unit on my Norcold 1200 series Works like a residential fridge. Install is not bad. Took two of us around 5 hrs. No regrets. He has a great conversion kit. I have a 2000 watt inverter with 4-6volt batteries. No problems over nighting or boondocking1.3KViews0likes0CommentsRe: A/c unit
I have done the conversion…..replacing the control board. Not difficult. Mine was to upgrade from 4 button to 5 button thermostat. Since then, I believe there is another upgrade from the five button. It may be easier to check with a RV salvage company and replace with a similar older unit.633Views0likes0CommentsRe: Won’t start
Agree with you Wolfe….but I’m old school… when we stop at a rest area so the wife can walk the dog and I can stretch my legs , I like to do a walk around my idling engine to make sure everything sounds okay and there are no leaks, same goes for a fuel stop. I’ve run/operated/owned large diesel engines all my life. Shutting them off for a short stop just doesn’t sit well668Views0likes0CommentsRe: Won’t start
Leave it idle while fueling…leave it idle at rest stops unless you’re going to be there for more than 15 minutes. Shutting down diesels without a 5-10 minute idle is not good. HOWEVER…I do not think this is your issue. You have something else going on. Check on a forum like Cummins engines on IRV2.667Views0likes0CommentsRe: Which BIG RIG TRUCK atlas do you use?
Haven’t looked at an atlas in yrs. I used a Garmin gps most of the time, but lately found them to not be that accurate or precise on their directions. Google maps works for me. Overhead clearances are always marked. Know your limitations and enjoy.631Views0likes0Comments
