I have a Monaco Windsor with HWH air ride suspension. When I push the
"travel mode" switch the rear pumps up but not the front.

Previously I had trouble with the fuse blowing. It was a 5 amp fuse. I
replaced it with a 7.5 and did have any problems for a while. Is there
more than one pump? Does anybody have a schematic for the electrical
and/or plumbing/compressor parts?

Thanks for ANY info.

Hank

Hank,

Have you tried either Monaco or HWH for the information you need. I
know that HWH is very responsive and helpful to their customers. Hwh
has a lot of literature on their site at <www.hwh.com>

Hi Hank,
If the fuse is rated 5 amps and you put a bigger one in you could have
caused some damage to a control box or pump. Fuses are rated at certain
sizes for a reason :) Your best bet is to contact HWH and tell them
what the problem is. They are a very good company and should be able to
help you out. They have a lot of information on their web site
including diagrams if you know what part you have. For schematics of how
and where the wires go you would probably have to contact Monoco.

Take care and Happy Campin...

If the fuse is blowing, there is something wrong.
Putting a larger fuse in doesn't fix the problem, it just make it worse.
You have a $200,000 RV and don't want to spend a couple hundred or so to
have it fixed right ?
That makes no sense to me.

Why does the cost of the rig matter?

Monaco or other service facilities, don't aways "fix things right".

When the air ride stopped working, I checked the fuses marked for the
air ride. The fuse that was blown was marked for the TV antenna. After
replacing the fuse for the antenna, the air ride worked fine for a few
days. So, Monaco or whomever installed it originally, didn't do it
right.

I feel that any info I can find may help me be sure it is repaired
correctly.

Yes, it is possible that I may have made matters worse by installing a
slightly larger fuse, but I had to get it on the road back home. Oh
well!

Have you joined the Monaco Coach Owners Association over on Yahoo? It's
a great resource for technical advice from other Monaco owners.
