RE: Looking for motorhome to travel to Alaska suggestions?
Do you plan on being in Alaska during the winter?
I really wouldn't advise that.
there really isn't a coach built with the insulation required for -40 degree temps.
we've done a couple nights in the 20s and our furness runs full time.

RE: Warning Light on 2002 Monaco Diplomat
Have you checked the differential pressure indicator on the air filter ?
My Roadtex computer threw a transmission over temp code on our trip back from Texas. Next fuel stop I checked the fluid level and it was way low. added 4 Its fluid, reset the fault codes in the computer, has been OK since.

RE: Rear Tires
In ten years of ownership we have place only 60,000 miles on the coach, I don't believe I need another 150,000 mile tires.
If I do keep the coach for another 10 years before I sell the buyer will believe the tires need to be changed anyway.

RE: Rear Tires
Yep and replaced with the same Michelin tires, all season drives and directional steers, basically semi truck tire, load range H.
The coach tire is a load range "G" the truck tire is a load range "H" can it make that much difference?
research shows that the truck tire has more tread.
but does it ride harder?

RE: Rear Tires
Just replaced all 10 of my rigs tires plus 4 on the trailer 2 years and 8 months old with 249,850 miles. Went with Michelins.
Are you saying you got 149.000 miles out of a set of tires ?

RE: Rear Tires
I'm just amazed that ten year old tires didn't shred themselves on the highway.
Coming up from Texas last week we were running 65 +- MPH in 90- degree heat, no problems.
Lots of CYA built into tire warrantees, What I worry about most is road hazard damage.

Rear Tires
Noticed today our rear tires are finally down to the minimum wear indicators. We put them on in 2009, at 8600 miles, today we indicate 73,000 miles.
I guess we will replace with another set of Michelins XA2 or 3 before we go one any more long trips.

RE: Electric issues
Might be a bad bulb too. I'd probably check there first as it should be the easiest - and I like easy.
Checked that already. bulb is good.
we have power to the light, but no ground.
now to find where the ground wire goes, it does exit the mirror thru the fiberglass body. connections in the mirror are good.
ground wire shows no continuity to a known good ground.
working on it !

RE: Electric issues
The turn signal indicator staying on suggests a bad ground on one of the turn signal lights. MOST LIKELY the front Turn Signal light (bout other options are possible) And I stress the word "SUGGESTS".
Why?
The parking light and turn signal lamps are usually dual element lamps with a common Ground. IF the ground is bad for any reason (IE bulb not making good electrical contact with socket) power to the Parking element back feeds the turn signal circuit
WHy front
The rear turn signals are connected together as STOP lamps on most vehicles unless you are signaling a turn but the FRONT connect directly to the indicator.Thank You
Today I have time to Chase this..

Electric issues
2000 Newmar Mountain Aire, 8.3 Cummins, Smart wheel controls.
I have a green arrow (right hand signal indicator) that comes on and stays on any time I use my parking lights, or windshield wipers.
signal lights work normally, but emergency flashers won't flash. they just stay on.
The only way you can make it go off is to turn all electrical equipment off then turn on the head lights on and shut them off and the green arrow will go off too
all fuses are good.
the left turn lamp on my left mirror, is out but the bulb is good.
any clues as to where to look for the cure?

RE: Braking System Recommendation
we use one of these.
I bought it off e-bay for cheap. I have 2 would sell one.
they require some installation of the air line and quick disconnects.
