The computer program which runs the "CC Compudigital Dash" presentation (pre-Silverleaf) in my 2000 Affinity is not booting. The first few screens display, on engine key activation, and data from the diagnostic port displays on my Silverleaf PC program. I can also get to "Setup." Consequently, this tells me the problem is not in the coach display screen or with the flow of engine and transmission data (i.e. J1939 or other data link.) I once got the message: "Application Error CDASH124 caused an illegal Instruction in module VBRUN300.DLL at 0031:082F. Close", but I can't get that far in the boot process again!
I know Silverleaf offers a complete replacement dash which I would like to own sometime, but I was hoping to postpone that expense at the present time.
Country Coach offered to work-up an analog guage retro-fit if I could come from SC to Oregon. Likewise, Oregon Motor Coach said that they could try to fix the computer program if I could come to their shop. Otherwise, Bob Vinson, their service manages suggested contacting Nick Hessler (formerly with Country Coach), who has solved some of these issues via telephone, internet and/or personal visit. He reportedly is good and understands the program logic used in my vintage.
Numerous times I have tried the Oregon telephone number I was given for Nick Hassler, but after 5 rings it rolls to a fax tone which I suspect has been reassigned to another customer. I have tried "White Page" listings for Mr Hessler in Eugene and Junction City without success, so I think he has relocated (Someone thought maybe Texas.)
Any help in locating contact information for Nick Hessler or advise on fixing my computer problem will be appreciated.
