RE: Dear New PrevostGurus Members
Hi Mike,
I personally think the brush, or similar, is critical to the correct functioning of the cruisairs. It behaves just like the shrouding around our DD S60 radiators. It reduces hot air recirculation over our cruisair condensers. My cruisairs draw cooler air in through the louvered basement side door and exhaust it out the bottom of the bus through large 90 deg rubber vents also designed to direct hot air away from the condenser inlets. You can't push hot air straight out the bottom of the bus and expect to draw cool air in 2' away! I think the lack of having an air flow barrier has given cruisairs a bad rap. It also probably helps in keeping dust down and in reducing highway turbulence and the resulting grime buildup on the sides of the bus, but the big deal for me is well functioning cruisairs. david brady, '02 Wanderlodge LXi 'Smokey' (Sold), '04 Prevost H3 Vantare 'SpongeBob' "there is no perfect forum there are only perfect forums" |

I see... and they do give a "complete" look to the sides as well.
It doesn't really matter - now does it? |

RE: Dear New PrevostGurus Members - Response

Our first and only trip was a disappointment, as there were things we neglected to test before leaving. I could neither get the gas stove (or the electronic Microwave) to work, or the gas grill in the compartment of the Coach! Needless to say, we were forced to eat out, which defeats the purpose of camping! Surely, this is something basic we are missing, and have so many manuals, that we have had our nose in them and come up with nothing. We are hoping to leave on a trip tomorrow, and so hoping someone can help us solve this problem. TIA |

There should be a meter(gage) near the tank that displays the level of gas in the tank. 2) There should be a valve near the tank that opens to allow gas to the appliances. That valve may be controlled by a leak detector usually located on the kick plate under the kitchen cabinet if your coach has one. Check if there is power to that detector. Sometimes they need to be reset by pushing the button on front of the detector. Also check in the 120V main electrical panel to see if all needed circuit breakers are on. There may also be a 12V breaker off or a blown fuse located in a 12V electrical panel. 3) Regarding the microwave, it may not have power to it due to one of those 120V circuit breakers being off. Usually the microwave is just plugged into a 120V outlet behind the microwave. Checking that 120V outlet to see if it has power (or not) will eliminate a broken microwave oven as the cause. Check back frequently as David or some other member may know more about your issues than I do.

RE: Dear New PrevostGurus Members
Thank you, Chuck for what could be some very valuable information. There is a full tank of propane, and we are aware of the valve. The leak detector seems to be above the refrigerator cabinet, so we will pursue a reset button and check breakers as well as fuse and hope something works soon.
I will also have John test the 120V plug behind the microwave, which I think he said he put a tester on it. At any rate, we will keep trying and appreciate your reply. |

We were on our knees looking under the cabinetry, and lo and behold, it was actually on the opposite side of the galley, hiding under the refrigerator. Wow! So happy to get that one resolved. Now for the Carousel Sharp II. Gonna tackle that next. Maybe on the next trip, meanwhile, wheels down today hopefully. Have a wonderful day. |

RE: Dear New PrevostGurus Members
glad I could help. On my previous coach- Wanderlodge, there was a switch in the drop down cabinet under the sink
