Hello, I'm Dennis and we just purchased a Motor Home. We've had a pop-up for 15 years. My wife, Kristen, hates it and if it burst into flames she'd dance in its ashes.
We just happened into a 93 Jamboree 29Z and it arrived 2/3/2012. We're just trying to get the manuals for all the equipment; generator, refrigerator, toilet, stove, water heater, furnace and power converter. The owners information packet is MIA. We're getting this thing into shape, looking for leaks and making sure the power is right. The generator will start but won't stay running, which appears to be a common problem. The plastic inside is really brittle and the drain valve for the fresh water tank broke off in my hand. This unit spent most of its life in San Diego, but it looks like it was stored outside.
The batteries drained in 4 days, it must be the cold as I don't think there was anything left on, but who know at this point. The fridge works on AC and gas. YES! I haven't even tried to fire up the furnace or the water heater. I'll concentrate on electrical for now.
Has anyone had any experience working with Fleetwood on things like wiring diagrams and such?
The powertrain is working fine. I have a pretty good idea on what fuel mileage is going to be, that comes with the territory.
The internet is an amazing thing. We found the manuals for the toilet, fridge, power converter (lots of info there from Parallax) and generator. I could find the service manual for this but not the owners manual. I had to settle for a newer manual for the series. The generator is an Onan Microlite 4000. I couldn't find a model number on the stove. I didn't even look on the furnace or the WH yet.
So the adventure begins........
