    Default Defroster Fixed

    So Jer, you mentioned your Defroster was fixed? Was that the problem you talked about a couple of months ago, where the air blows a plenty out of the windshield defrosters, but you get nothing in the way of air out of your dash registers? If so I have that problem too.

    Esplain what they did to fix that issue, please.

    Thanks.

    Gary S.

    I think Prevost likes to tell you to leave after the work is done and the bill will follow. I think you should insist they complete the bill as you wait and they would be convinced you care about the bill. Even what they did would be fresh on your mind and you can prove what differences you find.

    Prevost loves to send you a bill in the mail so they can shove it so far up your A-- and you know there is no sun shining there.

    But hell, these Texans have all the good things so they don't care. HMMMM.

    Gary,

    My coach has the same symptom, that being 'mucho' air coming out of the defroster vents and very little coming from the vents in the dash. I would also be interested in hearing what the fix was? It would be nice to re direct all that air flow to the dash registers.

    I had a no air coming out of two of my dash vent so I removed the panel that it looks like most converters install to make the entryway look nice. I found the hoses to the vents had fallen off over time. I also found that over the years all the other hose clamps were now loose. With all the hoses now attached the air flow is better.
    When I started this project it was to find out why the fans had a high pitched noise at the higher speeds. That was a simple fix. The Prevost installed air filter was covered with lint. Washing the filter made a big difference in the fan noise level.

    Larry,

    Are you saying there is an air intake filter for the dash air? If so, where is it located?

    Truk,there is a filter for the dash air,in the XLII it is at the base of the dash on the floor just above the top entrance step.It is a reusable filter also the manual shows the location,but the converter might have hidden the filter behind their modified dash.

    Hector, I am hoping that JDUB will explain how Marathon fixed his Dash air problem, and that I can do the same to fix mine.

    I have a vent in the dash just above the steps but their is no filter there?


    I will have to look further behind that dash area to see if I can detect any loose clamps or air hoses that have come off. Again I get lots of air out of the defroster vents, but nothing to speak of out of any of the dash register vents.

    Jer, are you out there. Gots anything to add to my dilemma ? A solution perhaps?
