i hve a 2001 windsor - as you know a great model discontinued by the geniuses at Monaco.

the paddle handles which control my access to the bays, are self-destructing. while i can still open the bays it is a nuisance without a working handle.

i am told by a couple of dealers that they can no longer get these handles.

any input? it is my thought to buy an entire set of them just in case

What kind of problem are you having with the handles? A couple of mine broke but I was able to fix them. One I couldn't , I bought new at General RV. If you have the same kind I have they are a common handle.

Use a small punch to re-seat the hinge pin on the right side. After it is seated as far as it will go use a sharp punch to to make several indentions in the hole the pin fits in. This will hold the pin, but for a permanent fix use Red Hand epoxy or any of the two part epoxy mixes. Make a small amount and force into the pin hole and let dry.. works great
