 Greetings Bobby,
   Are the thermostats the 5 button "comfort control" type or the newer 10 button type? Do the T-stats illuminate or is there no display? The multiplex fuse panel is in the bathroom and because the T-stats draw so little power they may be combined with other equipment such as lp detector and or CO detector all powered by the same 5amp fuse. Please advise, Fred

If you have an ad posted on the for sale boards that is not needed or the item is sold please contact me and I will remove it if you can’t yourself.  This is time for my semi annual cleanup but the boards look pretty good for now so we are good.
Let me know if you need help and we will readdress this in June.
Hope everyone had a great Christmas and looking forward 2026.

I struggled with flexible valve stem extensions for years.  I always had leak issues.  Someone on the Monacoers web site pointed me in the direction of the Borg Dually valve stem kits.  They specifically make a kit for the wheels that Monaco used on our motorhomes.  Mine was kit DL4M.  You need the kit with the rubber inserts that fit your wheels.  They are (sadly) very expensive, but you just buy them once and you are good for the life of your motorhome.  I highly recommend them and I have no financial interest in their business, I just really like the product.

Thanks. I think it’s something simple because that tire,outside dally, was just replaced roadside about a month ago. It leaked once before a couple of weeks ago. I found the extension was loose where it connects to the hub cap. I tightened it up and filled the tire and thought it was fixed.
Thanks again.

Our Marquis has metal (I assume steel) stems bolted into/onto the wheel.  If the inside-the-wheel seal of the stem is corrupted causing the leak from the stem where it's bolted onto the wheel, then a new stem is likely needed.  If the leak is at the valve, then a new valve is likely needed.

If the leak is at the wheel, then I suggest first tightening the nut that holds the stem onto the wheel.  It may simply have loosened up.  If that doesn't fix it, then a trip to a tire shop, or O'Reillys or Autozone, to get a new stem and/or valve is easy.  Someone at the shop or store should know what you need.

The problem is you may have to remove the wheel and tire from the RV to break the bead so that a new stem can be inserted from inside the wheel.  Thereafter, getting the bead to reseal so it can be filled with air could be an issue.  And removing the wheel's stud nuts and replacing them is another issue with which to fight.  I hope it's not a leak on an inside dual tire.  That brings on a whole lot of complications dealing with a stem extension.

Good luck!  I would take mine to a tire shop if one is nearby... assuming you can get enough air in the tire to drive it that far.

Are the valve stem cores in these truck tires the same as in an auto?  I’ve got one leaking and a flat. Would rather replace myself instead of call someone. I’ve done car tires but not the higher pressure truck tires. Thanks for your time.
