Front not coming up to ride height
#5

Thanks Bill and Richard! I have gone through all of the different cycles on the HWH system and still no joy to raise the front end... what I just thought about is I have NOT tried to raise ONE side (not sure why I didn’t think of that). I did rebuild the solenoid at the bottom/front of the block - so I think that is the passenger/raise solenoid - and I FORGOT to put in the new plunger that Tom had in the kit! I’ll rebuild it again correctly - it was easy.
After discussing with Tom I used a small washer with the coach key on and the HWH system in FULL RAISE mode to check if the solenoids had electricity to them - no joy but really couldn’t reach the top solenoid next to the firewall - will check that in the morning hopefully.
You are absolutely correct about there being NO room under the front and even though I drove the coach forward onto a little embankment there was little room to work. I was going to go to HD and get some 2x12’s cut but the line was out to the street to get in so i punted... maybe early in the morning (7am) will try again. BTW, you are also correct about the solenoids continuing to let out air even after dumping the system and dumping the main ping tank with the lanyard (between the rear wheels). Was surprised the coach lowered even more - glad it came down slowly! I will check the electric connections in the morning and will check back.
