As David stated there are drains that run out just ahead of the passenger side rear tires one of them is the drain for the fridge if your fridge is defrosting melting ice off the cooling fins inside the water drains out to the rear of the fridge where it is connected to a pex pipe which takes it to the rear wheel wheel area.

First thought:  Our coach has three roof AC/heat pumps.  Each unit has a condensation drain tube built into the ceiling and sidewall where it exits the coach just above the roadway.  If your ACs are running in humid conditions, then these drain tubes will drain away condensation created in the roof ACs.

Technical Support / Water under the coach

« Last post by George Frudakis on April 09, 2024, 02:43:17 AM »

Passenger side about 2 feet in Infront of the rear tires there is a pipe coming down that just started to drip water. I tried to download a picture, but it would not allow me to do so. I had a full tank of water and the coach leans toward the rear could this be water overflow for the freshwater tank.?

Thanks for the pictures! Seems odd they place my (our unit was built in 2007 - titled and sold in 2008) pump in a different location. By the way was this information in your owner's manual?

Unfortunately, there isn't much clearance under the generator bay. My try to drive up on some wood blocks. 

Thanks again,
Mike

On my 2002 Marquis the two screws remove the lamp which is replaced from the inside.  If you replace them with LED lights the polarity is important.  One of my sockets, I think the one in the bathroom, was wired backwards, the other 4 were fine.

Technical Support / air dryer replacement

« Last post by Jim Nixon on April 07, 2024, 03:50:54 AM »

I have a 2007 Beaver Marquis.  I need to replace the air dryer.  It appears to be a Wabco ss1200 with a regeneration valve, but many of what I'm finding to purchase online don't have the regeneration valve.  Has anyone had any experience with this and if so, do you have a line on where to purchase one?

If you have the lights with gold colored bezels (surrounds), the gold bezel will twist off allowing access to the bulb. If they don't have a bezel they most likely pull down as they are held in place by springs on each side of the light.
It is not a fuse since 1 of the lights works and the bedroom ceiling, aisle, and reading lights are should all be on a single 12v, 15 amp circuit.

Technical Support / Aisle Lights

On my 02 Marquis there are 5 aisle light and only one light up. Does anyone know where the multiplex control box on my coach is located so I can check the fuse? If the fuses are good, then how do I take apart the light to get to the bulb. I do not want to break it by pulling if that doesn't do the job. Thanks all.

Technical Support / Re: Hydraulic Cooler

« Last post by Don Forsyth on April 06, 2024, 02:49:27 PM »

I just saw your post about the Hydraulic problem you had/have. I did have a similar situation. 2005 Beaver monterey, Laguna   IV. I had it in the shop to have the engine compressor replaced. It got pretty cold overnight and apparently when they started the engine the next morning to pull it into the shop the hydraulic cooler blew fluid all over the snow on the ground. They took the cooler over to a radiator shop and had it welded. But the pressure in the system is so high that when they started the engine, it just blew the hole again. I found a new cooler online for just over $900 and took it to the shop. They installed it. I then had to go through my manual to find the correct fluid to put in the reservoir. It is NOT transmission fluid. I don't remember exactly what the manual said without looking it up again, but it is not cheap. They charged me just over $1500 to do the work and the cost or the fluid.
I also researched and found the engine compressor, purchased it for $700 and took it to the shop for them to install. All totaled they charged me $5000. I think they may have put a little in there for themselves.
