I am in Sun City, West Az and looking for someone familiar with older foretravel like ours. Close to cities Surprise, Goodyear, Peroria and Youngstown. Phoenix also but traffic is a problem. I have a leak back by power steering unit, up front by hydraulic leveler tank and an electrical problem.
Electrical prob most bothersome. All lights including instrument pulsating from dim to not so dim but over all the headlights are not as bright as they should be. Any foretravel type mechanics referenced would be very helpful or personal ideas and experience that a forum member would have. See you in Quartzsite with a can am side by side 1000 with attitude. Thanks all.
Maybe should have placed this in technical, still finding my way around
Check ALL your grounds for loose or corroded connections, starting at your battery.
Yup, First thing to check is all your grounds. You can't always see a bad ground so disassemble and clean them then a shot of dielectric grease on them. When they are doing it listen for a faint clicking sound caused by a failing relay/solenoid opening and closing. Bad connections and items that are causing a high resistance will be hot. Use an infrared meter* or your finger to explore.

*Great instrument for checking tire temps etc. Shoot your tires at a stop and any that are higher in temp may be loosing air. Also check wheel bearings. Do it on your rest stop walk around.
Not a recommendation just an example:
I have not used them, but I know our coach had a lot of work done there:
