Just want to thank Diplomat Don !
Last May I purchased a 2006 Diplomat 40pdq. As you all know every coach has its little quirks. Whenever I have a problem,question or a modification, I go to the search function on the Monaco owners thread and find that Diplomat Don has been there done that and improved that. Don thanks for making life easier for all of us!!
Happy Holidays
Chuck Meunier

I am a Don fan also. He has made many contributions to this site and other sites as well. There is not many things on one of these coaches that Don has not tinkered with at one time or another.
How is your hat fitting Don?

I'll add my vote to the accolades for Don. I don't think I would have attempted half of what I have done to my coach without the "roadmaps" that Don has posted, so Don, thanks for all the help and advice you have shared so generously.

Just wanted to let you know Don saved my Bacon on one of my Nascar Trips! Was at a Nascar race in Dover Delaware in June scorching hot the guys next to me had a trailer with a roof A/C unit but no generator. I should have went with my gut feeling and let them sweat, but I felt bad and tossed them a lifeline or should I say 120 volt extention cord. Well they went and fired that unit up and I lost all 120 volts to my coach. I figured I blew a breaker went to the genny no breaker blown went to main fuse panel no breaker out searched all the gfi's none were tripped. I was losing my mind and a lot of fluids, Luckily I was able to reach Don and in 2 seconds had me back up and running. I knew nothing of the breaker on the Inverter.  Don saved the weekend and has saved me so many hours just by reading his well written posts.
Thanks again Don!

Hey Don, you won't be able to get a hat on for months!
P.S.- that's OK, you deserve it!

I looked in the search and old threads, but it's gone. I do remember the disassembly steps. PM me for a phone number and we can talk.
