  1. Thank you for your responses.i also have another question if you don't mind,so yesterday was the first day we used toilet for number 1s only,probably used it and flushed it 12 times..is it normal on my Guage that test levels of everything lp,the battery and such to say that holding tank 1 which I'm assuming is the black tank is already full?is the tank that small?
  2. Thank you so I guess they are the origiinals
  3. Hi, I'm a new 1990 Itasca Spirit owner. This is the first Toyota rv I have had so I can't compare if these sewer lines have been replaced. Here's a pic under the stove and second is a pic behind toilet. Thank you all very much for your insight..
  4. Wow thank you I actually untaped it right before I seen your response.I had it taped a few hours do u think it could of done any damage?
  5. Do u think it would be wise then to untape it and leave it be for the moment? my mechanic has the voltage reader for now.
  6. Here's a pic guess I can't post over 3mb.please help me identify what this is. like I said I have it taped back up for now instead of sottering it.. when this is not pressed in it gives off no voltage on meter but when I press it in and hold it it gives a reading of voltage.
  7. Thank you both Thank you both very much for your responses.luckily I have a mechanic nearby who had a voltage reader and was able to pinpoint the correct wiring, I had it backwards. the big wire went on the negative. everything including a invertor that previously didn't work with the old battery is now working. I really hope I didn't do any permanent damage to the convertor as it was heating up and giving off a smell when I had it hooked up wrong... so hopefully everything is well. I have just one more problem there was some sort of a funky looking fuse of some sort in the shore battery compartment that had a wire coming off each end. one end of this fuse separated. when we voltage metered it broken it read zero when we closed it manually it read 12 volts so I electrical taped it up, I wish I could send a picture as I have one although it still is not permitting me to upload it here, if someone can let me know why I can't upload photos are if I can email u a picture it would be so appreciated.
  8. I'm trying to upload more pics but for some reason giving me a error file 200 message Is it possible I hooked the wires up wrong? I thought I was paying attention... Also I must say the small black wire that comes into the battery compartment with the big black wire has a red piece of tape around it and I have been ground that wire.
  9. Hi recently purchased a 90 Itasca Spirit...coach battery is 6 years old.today was tested weak at the battery store.. For some reason it was a 24ms marine battery which is a marine starting battery. So upon talking with battery guy, I bought a 27dc battery. Switched them out and noticed right away that convertor started clicking every 20 s3conds. It clicks and the lights I turned on stay bright and clicks and the lights dim. I'm almost positive I hooked the battery back up the right way, I have a small solar panel and there's 4 wires in the battery compartment, two small black and reds that come into the battery compartment together, I'm assuming from the solar panel, and then a big cable which is positive and another cable that I'm was assuming was ground coming from the back end of battery compartment..... so when I hook the older 24ms battery back up it doesn't click the invertor like the new battery, the lights turn on very dim but the meter where u can check water levels etc,.. doesn't work and also the auxiliary cig lighter in coach doesn't work. That stuff doesn't work on either battery, but lights work on both, also i notice one cable on the ground battery heats up pretty hot as does the convertor seems to warm up pretty quick with that new battery... I appreciate any help so much, as I was so excited I thought I could wire my TV and electronics in today and plan a trip... thanks to anyone who can help...
