Hi Jon,

Glad you're feeling better and welcome to the board. It will be refreshing to have someone give Bus Jon some competition , and someone who doesn't harass us like that Texas dude, Winchester.

Are you willing to travel for repairs? If you could become the resident "Lean Master" there's probably a lot of work next winter when all our busses again take on the leans with the cold weather.

Thanks
Mike

John,

Jerry W is on the road with a problem that he just posted. It is about intermittent problems. Can you help him?

already read about the problem and he is right jumping out the sensor should take care of it he also should inspect his radiator area if he has shutters make sure they are blocked open

John,

I have uncovered the sensor and am going to tie the wires together. What will blocking the shutters do? I didn't check when I pulled in, but I did check them on one of the stops to see that they were open and they were. Is there anyway the system can detect if they are shut?

I thought they operated off of air and that they defaulted to open if there was a problem.

Thanks for the help.

Jerry

Welcome to the group that really needs someone like you. Someone must have sent you from up above.

Get Jerry going so we can harass him about being a gallon low in the radiator. Hope that's all it is.

He's just a little boy.

Jerry,

Your shutters can fail closed. If you have normal cycling of the temperature gauge on your coach (180 to 195) they are opening as required.

The small pneumatic cylinder that closes the shutters is almost never serviced and after time it hangs closed becaused in storage that is the normal shutter position. It needs a periodic shot of oil.

If you want to permanently hold them open shut the one petcock and close the other on the small air lines going to the cylinder. A spring or pair of springs opens the shutters, but if they come loose the shutters will not open.
