Ok here is the first question! Is there anywhere to hook up to the city water supply with out filling the fresh water tank? I hooked up the water line to the only intake i see for fresh water and it fills the fresh water tank and then with the pump running i get water pressuer. What am i over looking? Is there a by-pass switch or valve that would let me get water to the coach without filling the fresh water first?
Thank you,
Dave

check the floor under the bathroom sink. there may be a valve there.
one way is for filling fresh water, the other way is for direct city water.

Older coaches like my 93 had a valve under the bathroom sink (way in the back) that controlled the fill from shore. Later models (specifically the U320) had an electric fill valve with remote switches.
In my 1991 GV there is a hatch between the drivers and passenger seat in the floor that has 2 valves. One to drain the fresh water tank and one that isolates the fresh water tank from the system. That valve has to be closed to draw pressure from shore water supply.
Thanks everyone. I did find it under the bathroom sink just as you said.
Now where is the fuse panel for the dash. My power and heated mirrors do not work. I'm hoping it is just a fuse. it took me awhile to find the gas turn on switch. We are getting there. What does the solenoid switch control on the big LP tank right after the main shut off. I see two wires coming to the switch but when i trun on the switch inside the coach that one does not move or am i just not seeing it move. To me i think that has to be it.
Thanks
Dave,
To find the fuses for the rear-view mirrors, lift up the top of the dash. It is held by several rollers, but should pop up. I use the heel of my hand/palm and push up. The fuse panel is clearly visible.
Regarding the solenoid on your LP tank, I believe that is wired to your propane sensor/detector, normally located close to the floor in the kitchen area. If the sensor detects a propane leak, it will shut off the flow at the tank. Some FT owners have disconnected that solenoid, as false alarms will shut the flow down at inopportune times. Others more knowledgeable will probably chime in on this topic.
