Hello everyone,
I just recently bought a used 1993 Class A Pace Arrow motorhome. It's got a few minor things that need fixing and I'm wondering if anyone out there can help me locate parts. The first thing that I need are several dashboard electrical switches. These are black rocker switches that are backlit with a two brightness level bulb. When the headlights are on the bulb is dimmly lit. When the switch is in the on position it is brightly lit. The switches in my coach all work but several of the backlights are shot. The backlight can, in fact, be removed but I don't have a clue where to find replacements. A second part I need is the multifunction control panel that is on the driver's door. This panel controls the side mirrors, the driver's window and the mirror heat. The third and last item that I'm looking for is the washer fluid reservoir. I can buy a generic one at J.C. Whitney but it would be nice to find a direct replacement. I'll probably call Fleetwood come Monday for help with these items but I have a feeling that they won't do much for me.
Thanks!

lights and switches try auto parts stores or radio shack many styles of switches have changed since yours were made I found some switches at radio shack I liked better then my original switches,washer tanks are no big deal there pretty generic nothing special about them just the size of them ,maybe a junk yard ,the door panel parts will probably be the biggest problem ,MHs used lots of parts off different makes of vehicles if you can find what they used you might find something that will work ,many parts were off older make vehicles not to many were special made just for the MHs.

I have a 1994 PA.
Some items are still available through dealers. Mountain Road RV, Sabattus, ME has a very good parts person, Andi, who works off emailed pictures and your Fleetwood ID number (found on the label outside your MH). The door switches panel will probably need to come from a junkyard, but the switches themselves may be replaceable.
I've seen the dash switches offered on Ebay and at various RV stores, but they may be hard to find. I'd suffer with your functioning ones.
The Washer unit is often seen on Ebay - and is commonly available - made by Denso - about $30. which is good because the UV kills them!

Does your original resevoir looks like the one on the right of the picture?......the one on the left is the J.C. Whitney replacement...it is the updated replacement of the original one.....and it matches up real good....

Yes it does, except mine is all cracked and broken on the left side
You don't by chance have a link to the one you got? I found one on J.C. Whitney but it didn't look like that.

By golly, you did find some original old stock!........the problem though with the original design is that the pump actually mounts in that round hole at the bottom and when the rubber seal gets to be a few years old it leaks.......they redesgined it so it wont do that by mounting the pump outside the washer bottle and running a small hose at the bottom tot he pump......
For less money I'd rather have the redesinged bottle and pump......come to think about it......I do have the redesigned one!
