Repair recommendations in NH or MA (update)

Yahoo Message Number: 98016
Thank you for replying Thomas. We finally have an answer & a story to go with it. On our way to have the fuel issue looked at, the engine died and we coasted to the side of the road. Turns out we blew a coolant hose and it was all over the road. We were towed to a repair shop where they were able to fix the coolant issue before moving on to the fuel issue.
It turns out there was a blockage in the check valve behind the fuel filter, and that wouldn't allow fuel to prime the filter. So he removed it & cleaned everything out and the coach started. In the process, the tech noticed that the ignition wouldn't stay on consistently, so he had to replace that as well. After that, it seemed that all was well & the coach started as before.
As we went to leave the repair shop, I noticed that our 4 month old inverter was dead. The control panel was dead and there was no power to the coach. I reset everything & ran the generator & nothing worked. After calling Magnum, we determined that the batteries were fine but a board in the inverter was bad. There was 1 place in NH that could service the inverter, so we drove north a couple of hours and made it to a campground. After we plugged in I was monitoring the inverter & panel, and it worked! Over the next few days I ran every possible test & load combination I could think of to make sure it was working properly. It seems to have healed itself & it has been ok. My only guess is that something happened when changing the ignition switch, but I don't know what.

We hope this is all the excitement for this month.

Thanks,

Susie
