Do you have a King Air bed? The mechanism for it lies directly under the pillow area. Access it by removing the mattress and the board at the head of the bed

Right under the pillow of our bed we are hearing a constant clicking sound. We have raised the storage area and checked but whatever is under there is securely built in. Does anyone know what is under there before we start de-constructing the whole area? We have been having issues with our house batteries and inverter and think we are coming to terms with that. But it all might be related.... if I only knew what was under there. I have found no references anywhere!

The fuel gauge should be a standard 2 inch 90 ohm fuel almost any of them would substitute but if you want one of the original ones to match your going to have to go for a used one from a salvage yard you could try Visone RV salvage or Colaws RV .

I believe your gauges look like this one but not sure.
Here's one from Visone but it' pricey.

For your florescent lights if we are talking about the small two tube 12 volt ceiling units if the lenses are in good shape I would convert them to LED strips and eliminate the ballasts. I did all of mine and they work great.

Here's a video showing how to do it

As for those puck lights you can check to see if Steve Huber or Roy Boles have any new ones left.

Hope this helps

Thanks Eric, I bought the gauge from NW RV Supply. I'm not sure if the bezels can be exchanged so the one I bought has a metal bezel to match the other gauges, I don't think the font is the same but close, so I'm going to go with it.

As to the flor lights, actually I think some, if not all, have them have been converted to LED already, where I'm in trouble with them is some of my lenses are in pretty rough shape so I'm looking for a source there. I'm pretty sure I've run the part number before with no success.

I'll check with these 2 fine gentlemen and see about the puck light lenses, its not a "must have" but a "it'd be nice to have". The most farthest buried puck light in the back corner above the stove top is the one missing the lens now. Kinda out of the way and not in my face all the time.

As an aside, wondering around RV Elite Parts, I found a Beaver Grab Handle that mounts to the outside. The one that is there is an Admiral and its shattered.

Ok Guys, Happy New Year! I'm grateful for all of your help. Someone mentioned in this or another thread; "Bringing another Beaver back to life." Its interesting and fun but, I don't want to wear out my welcome here so I'm judicious about my questions. Which is good, in these cases I research harder and learn more.

Now, as to the fuel quantity, the connectors are good, I have 12vdc and a good ground at the gauge, 9.3vdc from the sender with 43 ohms.

I'm thinking bad gauge. It has a number on the back (from what I can see), it doesn't pull up on the internet in a search. Anyone know a number?

I'm missing a halogen puck light lens, I've been running that number too to no avail.
I also need a few fluorescent light lenses, I've gotten no where with those searches too. Anyone have a number for that?

I'm getting ready to take her out on a run for a couple weeks so until I have a good fuel qty indication, I make frequent stops for diesel. Just a shorty up to Hot Springs, looks like a nice area so I'm looking forward to it.  I'm staying close to the 333 rule so as to not run it out of fuel. This is no problem as it gives me a chance to get out and stretch/walk around.

   Bobby,
  As I recall to the best of my knowledge, the front T-stat is the source of power that feeds the other t-stat. The 5 button t-stat is obsolete. If you replace it with the newer 10 button comfort control the issue that you will run into is if the front air conditioner is the original Dometic model, the PC board will not respond to the t-stat. Remove the 5-button t-stat cover and check the 2amp fuse first. If that is good, check the 5amp fuse mounted on the PC board located inside the front air conditioner by removing the A/C shroud and accessing the PC controls. While you are up there get the model number of the air conditioner. Please advise. Fred

  Does the T-stats have 5 buttons or 10 buttons?
