Jimmy,
The Percent Load on our Aladdin also pegs at 49%. At first, I thought that this might be a sign that the Aladdin system was failing, but I think it is actually a bug.
A couple years ago I started using the Silverleaf VMSpc system to report engine data and it appears to correctly report engine load, I see 100% load while the Aladdin system is pegged at 49%. In fact, the Aladdin reading is usually about ½ that of the VMSpc reading.
Don’t know for sure, but this bug may have been introduced in 2006 when Monaco started using J1939 protocol to report engine data. The Aladdin control module (VCM) only knows J1587 protocol and doesn’t understand J1939, so a protocol translator (J1939 Bridge) was incorporated into the system. On your coach, I believe that the J1939 Bridge is located in the front run box.
In 2007ish, Monaco started using the Medallion instrument cluster that reads native J1939.
