I have one more qestion about the copressor.
What is this compressor & holding tank uses air for ?

- 3 air doors ( in my case Newell 2001 model )
- One air toilet
- 2 air seals for both slides
- air brakes
- air suspension bags
Do I have the list right & missing something else!

Learning as much about my coach is the name of the game here , the more , the better!

Les,

If your Newell is like mine you have 2 auxillary air compressors.

The 120v compressor is located around the front of the coach; either in the first front bay on driver's side, or first front bay on passenger side, or in the generator compartment. The 120v compressor provides air to the air bags for leveling when you are at a campground. And it provides air for your toilet, pocket air doors, and for the air seals around the sliderooms.

You have a 2nd 12v auxillary air pump which provides air to the toilet, pocket air doors, and the air seals around the sliderooms.

You should have an on/off switch above the microwave for each of the 2 auxillary air pumps.

If you do not have any air bags leaks or leaks anywhere else in your leveling system you can turn off the 120v auxillary air pump so you don't have to listen to it kicking on and running for 2-4 minutes. If you choose to turn the 120v pump off be sure to turn the 12v pump on. The 12v pump is very quiet.

The 120v pump serves as a back-up to the 12v pump; but the 12v pump can NOT back up the 120v pump - it just isn't large enough.

So to review, if you are in a campground and the 120v air pump kicks on every 30 minutes and you don't want to listen to it - turn it off. Then make sure the 12v auxillary air pump is on so that your toilet will flush, your pocket doors will open, and your slideroom seals will stay inflated with air.




Thank you!
