The front one is much easier to access.My 80 year old body just didn’t want to try after my frustrations trying to change parts on the controller above the rear drive axle. It’s so hard to get to that the AA tech at HWH said it was difficult for him and required, for sure, that the coach be on a raised platform at head height. I haven’t even wanted to look at the front module but I will tomorrow and if I can get to it easily I’ll give it a shot. I know I deserve it but don’t shame me too much.![]()
Using the link you provided it looks like we can use it to order parts if needed. I was just dabbling, not cheap of course for spares so will continue to try and identify before anything is ordered.Jerry, I'm going to provide the link you sent me here, don't think it needs to be private.
The check valve looks interesting but I think checking that manifold assembly for leaks is key right now as well and swapping transducers. I think (hope) the problem lies within that box and its components.
Reading back thru the thread, I reread this and had a question. Are you sure it’s the valve that adds air to the system that Joe is talking about? Wouldn’t it be the exhaust valve that is leaking as air is leaking out not in. Or are we just talking semantics here?agreed with my theory that the valve that opens to push air in the airbag for air leveling is not closing or sealing so it's leaking back out within the system as both of us can't find leaks.
Good afternoon Neal
I have attached to this email a drawing if you will of an Active Air
front manifold. I do not have one that is exactly like yours, yours will
have a module on the side of it and this one doesn't.
What I have done is mark which one is going to be the left lower valve
that will need to be replaced. What you will want to do is drop all the
air in the coach so all the bags are flat. Go underneath to the manifold
and locate the left lower valve and unplug it. Then once it is unplugged
use channel locks and simply unscrew it out of the block. Then screw the
new one in and then plug it back in and you should be good to go.
Of course before you drop the air in the coach you may want to drive the
front up on blocks (do not put the jacks down and crawl under it) so you
have room to get under the coach and work on this.
Hopefully this all makes sense?
Thanks
Joe
Hence the muffler that would stop a noise leak. I give…..I know nooothing. God I wish HWH were in Oregon or Nevada!But if it was an exhaust leak I think I'd hear something,
