I am not up to speed on why, but over the last several years numerous POG members have experienced a failure of the drive coil. I do know the wattage of the coils supplied by Prevost has varied. Since that is the only coil energized whenever the coach is in motion the frequent failures may be attributed to heat, but I have no proof of that.

Typically the failure occurs without warning, and just when the owner wants to drive. So far I have not been aware of any failures that have occurred while the coach was being driven. We have covered the diagnosis and emergency fix here on the forum as well as several phone calls I have gotten in which I walked the owner through the issue based on his mechanical skills and available tools.
