Thank you in advance.Clicking sound when engine startingHello I have a 1996 Monaco Dynasty Class A RV. When I start the RV I can hear a clicking sound prior to engine starting. Engine does not start up right away due to clicking sound. I am thinking the RV needs the starting solenoid to be replaced. Am I right? If so can someone please inform me where is the starting solenoid so I can locate it and replace it. Thank you in advance.Re: Water pump off/on switch inside RVSorry for the confusion. I have a water pump. I am looking for the on/off switch for the water pump inside the RV. So if I am using the fresh water tanks I believe I would use a switch to turn on the water pump which would then allow water to come out of the sink. I know the water pump runs on 12 volt but there must be a turn on/off switch inside the RV to use the water pump. Thank you in advance.Water pump off/on switch inside RVHello. I have a 1996 Monaco Dynasty and would like to locate the water pump on/off switch(es) inside RV. I have used city water for water and have not used fresh water tanks although I want to use fresh tanks which will require water pump. Thank you in advance.Re: Water leaking from overflow valve on city waterIf I am using city water, why is the pump mentioned as a possibility of the reason the overflows are leaking water when on city water as I thought the pump is only used with fresh water tanks. Am I wrong? Also, how does one shut the valves please as this has been suggested? I have a shut off valve that stops water going into the fresh water tanks but have never closed the overflow valves.Re: Water leaking from overflow valve on city waterAre you suggesting that I close the valve to the fresh water tanks? My mistake but the water appears to be coming out if the overflow valves under the RV. I have two of them.Water leaking from overflow valve on city waterI have a 1996 Monaco Dynasty and when I am using city water, there is water coming out of the valve under the RV. There is no water in the fresh tanks as I leave the drain valve open on the fresh tanks to make sure but water is still coming out of the valves. Please assist. Thank you in advance.White smoke from exhaustHello. I have a 1986 Monaco Dynasty. I was 3 hours into a trip when I noticed while smoke coming from exhaust. This smoke only occurs when accelerating. The coolant is full, the transmission fluid is topped off and the oil is at a good level. I changed the oil 2 months ago and had the oil analyzed with out issue. I changed the fuel filters in September of last year prior to storage. Once I diagnosed the issue, I continued to drive and about 5 minutes into driving the white smoke from exhaust ceased. However when I arrived at my destination and used brake white smoke appeared again from exhaust and stopped again when driving to my spot at the park I was staying at. I would appreciate any thoughts, ideas, suggestions etc. Thank you in advance.Re: RPM rises to 3500 to shift from 4th to 5thAll other instruments were just fine. A friend at a RV shop in FL told her that you can’t blow the engine as the governor in the fuel pump will not allow the engine to blow. So now it appears that it is the tachometer and could be the sensor which is a line attached to the alternator. I was told by freightliner that most new RV do not have a tach but people rely on the other instruments for issues. I am going to ignore the tach, crawl home, put the RV into storage for the season and deal with it when the RV comes out in the spring. There is always something but having fun learning.Re: RPM rises to 3500 to shift from 4th to 5thI got - -. No codes
