Went to level the coach out today and the solenoids if front would not work. They are clicking and I cleaned both of them out and one started to work, but the other did not. The right side will not drain air. I tapped on it with the magic hammer and still nothing. The solenoid part number: Skinner valve from Honeywell Corporation, #V52DA2125, 125psi, 12volts, 11watts, 3/32orifice, code JR6. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks!! Brian & Lana

If you don't find one, check with Newell. I understand that the valve you are looking for may not be manufactured any longer but I suspect that there is a replacement valve that will work.

2dogs,
Did you find a replacement? I am going through my leveling systems and want to carry spares.
thanks

We have two types of valves, Skinner and Mac. These are the same part number as the Skinner valves that I have.

There are three of them, one behind the pressure regulator and two more that are just after the top MAC valves on the right and on the left, They are the ones that have the red wires and you labeled red on the picture that Clarke posted after the replacement of the MAC valves.
As a side note the MAC valves are Continuous Duty so we may be able to use them for that purpose if the Skinner V52DA2125-12VDC valves are not available anymore.

Thanks 2dogs,
Looks like they may have a 24 Volts DC Solenoid but not the 12 Volts DC. We do have 2 8D Batteries so 24 Volts DC is doable and that may be an option.
Thanks again,
