Post by: Michael & Jackie on February 03, 2018, 05:15:46 pm
Got our annual service and inspection done, you will see we may ask some more than the usual but we try to be preventative in our maintenance.  (We know one couple that all they say they do it engine oil change at CW)

a.  Lights under passenger side of coach not working.  Found: Fuse at rear of coach blown.  Done, found that ground lights fuse was being over amped by an unknown non-factory device, tapped into a 20 amp power point circuit and tested OP

(I do not understand, need to go ask details...non-factory device, what/where?)

b.  Check main fuel lines.  Found: They are Good

c.  Convert Engine Oil Drain Plug:  Found:  Done, part EZ203

d.  Neither roof AC works.  Found:  Reset thermostat.  Show customer how to do

e.  Engine Block Heater threw breaker.  Found: Heating element had internal short. Done. Drained coolant to install. New seals

f.  Noise from Roof.  Found:  The Winegard antenna had defective part. caused the noise. Winegard replaced entire unit.

g.  Service air dryer system.  Found: Time for this.  Dryer kit air desiccant installed

h.  Change transmission filter.  Found: R&R main filter, tourqued bolts, topped off 1 qt transynd

i.  Change hydraulic filter.  Found:  cleaned reservoir lid and canister, changed filter and o_ring

j.  Check all fluid levels.  Found:  Low and added to windshield, all other ok

k.  Change air filter.  Found:  was needed, changed air filter and cleaned canister, new seal.

l.  Check brakes.  Found:  All brake pads ok, but right front needed little adjustment.  Checked slide pins for proper movement, ok.

m.  Engine oil and filters.  Found: done, 36 qts delo 400 15W40

o.  Gen and engine fuel filters.  Found:  Done

p.  Check front hub oil.  Found: all levels ok

Hi Brett, we hope so but may change the timing just a little.    I do not know if Hay plans that or he  and Trudy off to the longer trip he does in some years.
