Hi Glenda, Ditto, smack2020 and anyone who might be interested
I added a few more pics to the link. https://plus.google.com/photos/10131...NjNn6Sl6pS3sAE Acualy in heat, cool or off zone 3 will show as much as 9 degrees higher than it is in the front of the coach when the tv is on. Yes the sensor in the bedroom to the right of the tv is zone one and zone two sensor is in the kitchen just under the pull out island countertop on the right. For anyone who might want to do this or have it done: Disconect all power souces to the coach and turn house and chassis battery switches off. Remove zone 3 sensor above the tv and disconect the two wires at the couplings. Remove the eight philup screws to remove top tv bracket and tilt the tv away from wall or you can pick it up and set it back. Drill the new hole in cabinet at the new location and feed the source wire through the new hole and recouple the wires (the wires are long enough, just have to re route). Remount the tv and sensor and turn battery switches back on. Fill old sensor hole with short wood plug and touch up with correct color wood pencel. Or order new sensor from manufacture and install as a dummy just for cosmetic. Zone 3 temp reading will be spot on. I am happy to help as you guys have been much help to me.
Thanks to all!
Jesse

Glenda thanks for the remote advise. I will pick one up soon but I might need your help programing it.

We have the same floorplan, so I am assuming when you moved it there were no connections coming out of the wood. I guess it is just a sensor. I know there is one on the side wall of the vanity area in the bedroom also. Did you just unscrew it and relocate in under the edge of the fireplace mantle? We have not used our airconditioning yet since we just got the Tour in Dec, but we are going to need it for sure in a month or two. Thanks for the info.

Someone dear to me suggested this upgrade and I thought you might like it.

I have NO IDEA how he did it, but right after we got our Tour we went to Florida (Mayport Naval Base) to spend the holidays with our daughter and son in law. Alan is a Navy Lt.and an ET (electronics Tech). He and my DH took off one day and purchased the receivers we needed and then spent the day setting it all up. We only need the one controller to go from cable to sat. to antenna and change stations. We put the rest of the controllers up in a cabinet and out of the way. I couldn't believe how many conrollers came with the coach.

Hi Jesse,
Thanks for the detailed instructions. I will do this mod next time I have the RV home.

Thanks Jesse, very helpful. I am going to call Winnie on Monday to let them know they have a problem and to ask them to send me a new sensor. I will just leave the old one to cover the holes.

Looks like a good mod(modification).

CHROME BOTOM EDGE....

Any current owner who has the chrome on the bottom edge care to comment on how up keep has been on it? I know that cleaning and keeping the wheels can be a pain, I was wondering how you are doing with the bottom chrome?

Thanks

We have only had ours since Dec., but it has had several "baths" and still looks nice and shiny. Just wiped it with a soft micro towel and that seems to have worked. Not sure how it will look this time next year, but it sure looks great now I am sure at some time we may have to apply some polish but I think it won't be soon.

My understanding is that it is stainless steel, not chrome.

I do believe you are correct.

Keeping your TOUR Clean with AERO COSMETICS. We have used a waterless cleaner now for over a year and have found it to be fantastic. This product is perfect as many campgrounds do not allow washing on their site. We first purchased a kit at GNR and now buy refills on Amazon. The product meets Boeing Aircraft cleaning Spec. Exterior D6-17487P and Interior D6-7127M. I would give this product a five star rating...Waterless Car Wash Aircraft RV Cleaner Detailer Wax Quick Spray 32oz : Amazon.com : Automotive. The best part....just spray and immediately wipe...

Not sure I can anwer that. Our coach is 43 feet, I also use it on a Honda CRV and a Toyota Highlander. I buy the liquid by the gallon and just used my first gallon after a year and a half. I touch up and clean every two months........hope that helps....

Yep, get one gallon and one quart for the spray bottle. I just don't need to get 10 gallons for one wash? :-)
