Shutting off the heat

[sfedeli3]

Hi Tim,

Sadly, ye be mistaken. There's a sporlan behind the air step mechanism under
the front steps that opens (or is supposed to) when you turn on the front heat.
I can hear mine click when you rock the front heat switch- my suspicion is that
it's wired backwards and is closing when it should be opening- so when my pump
is on, the sporlan is closed- but when the pump is off- it's open. I'm willing
to bet that it has been like that since the coach was built. We're going to
troubleshoot it at the WarnerRama rally in New York later this month.

heat, so if the dash heat is still gettin hot, you can shut off the gate valves
at the engine, 2 for front heat and 2 for chassis heat,2 are hard to find, stuck
down between the frame across the back and the engine, but there should be a a
valve at the steering wheel, I was trying to think, they uses a pull cable with
a chrome knob by the steering column,to shut off a valve but not sure what
years, you pushed it of pulled it, then they went to a slide heater control,and
the valve was under the coach behind the step, and the had some problems with
it too, you could clamp off the hose with needle nose vise grips under there too
