    Default Cornering Lamp Fixed

    I wanted to add something from my question in the above post about my passenger cornering lamp, not working. I know everyone is holding their breath....

    I fixed my cornering lamp issue, while I was @ Buddy Greggs last weekend.

    There are fuse blocks ( black square ) in the drivers door compartment for virtually all exterior lights, the cornering lamps being no exception, HOWEVER, the fuse was not the problem. When I replaced the Brand New Sealed Beam that I just purchased from Marathon, with the SPARE Sealed Beam that I also purchased at the same time, it worked perfectly.... Kind of like replacing a Norgreen valve with a Brand New Norgreen valve that leakes, I guess, but Not nearly has much work.

    I have cornering lamps now.

    Using the wall works pretty well. I replaced the headlight housings and lamps on the XL a few years ago and re-aimed the lights which were pretty pathetic before hand. I was able to achieve pretty good results. If you want to bring the bus to the barn I would be happy to help. You need to park a reasonable distance from the wall and check the level on the coach and establish a level line on the wall to achieve a good result. Glad to hear the cornering lamp works.

    are you using the standard 4" down at 30 feet from the height of the lights when you're 3 feet from the wall?

    Default $400 - no way!

    Gary,

    I'll have to go check my invoice. I can tell you right now that it was nowhere near what Buddy Greeg quoted you for the aim job. Let me look it up and I'll get back to you tomorrow. Carole and I just got back from a trip to Naples Florida. As you can see from a previous post the trip included a stop at Parliament Coach. Now that stop cost more than $400 easy.

    Hope all is well with you guys.
