Q
1909 1/21/2006 12:41:28 PM 1/22/2006 Ray Stiltner rvnstiltner@earthlink.net Alarm System The owners manual for my 96 45' Newell state that the interior alarm arming switch is located in the upper cabinet just aft of the main entry door. There is no switch located there. There is an alarm arming switch located on the main control panel above the stove. I have located the exterior switch on the basement door and followed the instructions in the manual and the alarm does not function. I check continuity on the exterior keyed switch and there is continuity when I turn the key. I do not see a wiring diagram in all the paperwork so I have no idea on how to troubleshoot this problem.

1912 1/22/2006 8:25:13 PM 1/22/2006 TechTalk Staff TechTalk@newellcoach.com ignition switch replacement It sounds like this may well be the tilt wheel GM column, with ignition switch, made by Saginaw and used by Newell for many years. If so, virtually any General Motors dealer has the tools and expertise to service this column.

1913 1/23/2006 3:18:34 PM 1/28/2006 Ray Stiltner rvnstiltner@earthlink.net Rear Reflector Lights on 96 Newell I called them prior to posting the email. They told me the reflectors were not available and that I could install a complete tail light assy instead but all the wiring is collected behind these reflectors and installing another light assy there would be a fairly hard chore.

1916 1/27/2006 7:43:10 AM 1/28/2006 TechTalk Staff TechTalk@newellcoach.com Rear Reflector Lights on 96 Newell While conversion to the newer design tail lights requires a one-time rework of the wiring, there are long term benefits from making this change. The old design contained sealed individual light and reflector units, requiring the replacement of the lens and the reflector, when a bulb failed. The replacement units allow for individual bulb replacements, versus replacing the lens and reflector every time a bulb failed. This means a long term cost savings for our cutomer. If some advice is needed for the wiring changes required, call the Newell Service Department toll free at 1-888-3NEWELL.

Q
1919 1/28/2006 9:48:25 PM 1/29/2006 Eddie Huffstetter EddieHuffstetter@hotmail.com Tech Talk - Thanks! I really appreciate the entire site, especially the History and TechTalk. I am the owner of a 1966 StreamLine and it was wonderful to see my coach on the history legacy page. My thanks to Tom Patterson for his web-site that ultimately brought me into Newell. Twenty years ago, the story I got was that Mr. Newell wanted Streamline to custom build a luxery coach for him and their refusal led to the challenge, buy the company and build it yourself. Anyway, I liked the story and it doesn't really matter does it? [Editor's note: The story of Mr. Newell buying the motorhome division of Streamline in 1967 is essentially true. However, it was not because Streamline refused to build a coach for Mr. Newell. Streamline actually built the coach, and Mr. Newell took delivery. But according to legend (and perhaps true), Mr. Newell commented critically to Streamline's owner regarding certain aspects of his new Steamline coach. Streamline's owner responded, "If you are so smart, why don't you just buy my motorhome division." As they say, the rest is history, ironically with Streamline staying in the trailer business until about 1972 when they went broke.]

Q
1921 1/29/2006 9:00:37 AM 1/30/2006 TechTalk Staff TechTalk@newellcoach.com replacing appliances As a general rule, appliances, including refrigerators, can be replaced through the entry door. However, Newell will do a wide range of customization, so it is possible that a coach is equipped with an appliance that will not go through the entry door. It is also possible that an appliance can be removed through the entry door, but that it would be difficult. In this case, we recommend that consideration be given to removing a windshield. Removing and replacing a slide-out is not recommended. This requires an experienced Newell technician, and involves perhaps 30 hours of labor.

1922 1/29/2006 11:28:01 AM 1/30/2006 TechTalk Staff TechTalk@newellcoach.com Diesel smell in storage and coach. There are a number of components in the diesel fuel system of an Aqua-Hot. If a leak occurs, a fiberglass mat on the floor of the unit can become
saturated with diesel and will need to be removed once the underlying leak is diagnosed and corrected. Perhaps more important: it is recommended by Aqua-Hot that the entire system be serviced annually by a trained technician. This item is included on Newell's recommended periodic maintenance schedule. Newell's can receive complete recommended period maintenance, including the Aqua-Hot system, at the factory service center in Miami. If this is not a practical option, the periodic service schedule is included in the Newell Owner's Manual. The most current version is available by mail or fax by calling the Newell Service Department at 1-888-3NEWELL. A

1925 1/31/2006 8:06:55 AM 2/4/2006 Mike Thomas mclub@hotmail.com Are European models available? My family and I want motor home to use in the USA for two years and then ship it to Europe for use there. So the question is does Newell make a European model, i.e., less than 102 inches wide to meet European legal requirements?

1930 2/4/2006 4:05:05 PM 2/4/2006 TechTalk Staff TechTalk@newellcoach.com Are European models available? Through the years, Newell has built a number of coaches with special specifications to allow export to foreign markets, including Europe, Japan, and the Middle East. A number of Newells have been custom built for and used by participants in Formula One auto racing. However, the export situation is complicated and must be considered on a case-by-case basis. We suggest that anyone wishing to consider ordering a Newell for export contact the Newell sales department to discuss the particular requirements.
