1994 Fleetwood Coronado Owners

[bikermike]

We have a 1993 Coronado and were able to get wiring & plumbing diagrams from Fleetwood customer service. We found the owner’s manual on line, it’s very general and not much help, had better luck looking up the appliances and major components directly from their own web sites.

rear exterior lights went out on the way home. check the wiring a couple days ago and its dead at the rear connector. theres a break in there somewhere so just gonna rewire from front connector to rear connector.

onan gen starts up at the rear but the dash start is not working. check the switch and it makes contact but is not sending the signal to gen to start.

think thats about all i need to get fixed before the spring and was just wondering if any of you guys ran into similar probs and had simple fixes.

any electrical schematics available?

btw....its the gm chasis with 454

thanks for any help and advise you can give to this newbie

Sent you a wiring diagram for a 92

849 days later, I'm updating this post. I bought a Coronado, but now it needs a fridge. what size is it?

Wow! This thread goes way back. Glad I found it though! Sorry I cant help you with your fridge question, I just wanted to be part of this thread, my wife and I just purchased a 91 Coronado and we just wanted to be part of this little Coronado community! We are having a couple issues with ours but are slowly getting the bugs worked out. We are not getting power to the coach after replacing the 2 6 volt batteries but we do hear a "Click" when we hit the battery disconnect. Looks like the previous owner just replaced the solenoid too, everything looks brand new. We cant hear the converter, no hum or nothing. We do have Shore power and the generator works great!

Hello. This is the ghost of Coronados past... (Do they believe me?)
Welcome aboard! I just went and got a brand new fridge, so it's all good.
I am not any expert in repairing these, but you might want to check your 12 volt fuses and breakers, then under the sink is where my inverter is located. Check to see you have everything plugged in correctly. Are the batteries fully charged?
Just an FYI, before I purchased mine, the house batteries were getting 19 volts. After the test drive, I didn't want to eat or look at eggs for weeks. And I surely (Shirley?) didn't want anything else cooked on the Coronado that day.
Good luck with your new rig. Post a photo of it, and check in again

I will ask you to get 2 12 volt marine batteries. 2 6 volt won't be any use. The intended design of the system is 1 12 battery for the vehicle. 2 12 volt batteries for the house. 3 altogether. Try that out, and get back to me. Sorry I missed that in the first reply.

Here is our new to us steed

[chaos2767]

I just bought 2 new 6 volt Golf cart batteries from Costco and are running them in series. They are the exact same batteries that were in it and got great reviews so I just replaced them since the old ones would not take a charge!

Ok, then. Mine must be different than yours.
The PO modified mine with some options I liked, so that I why I chose the Coronado.
Where are you? I still have some repair work on the hydrovac system, but other than that, I see a twin to mine.
I have rear airbags and a triple receiver hitch mount.

[chaos2767]

We live on Menifee CA, we just have a single hitch reclever and have front and rear airbags. We have plenty of mods we want to do to it such as the hardwood floor and some color changes inside, other than that, just having my coach battery issue. My inverter works just not getting power from the new batteries to the inverter I guess. Our Coronado is a 33ft 92!

[Railhead]

Mine also is a 92. 33. I have awnings on all the windows, same color as yours. Mind saying what it cost? My vin is 500. I gave $6700 for it. 71,000. Miles. Has bus mirrors on it. Gets 8 mpg. New rubber roof and rear a/c. I'm in northern Cal. Or Nevada,

[chaos2767]

Yours looks great, I like the awnings on the windows and love those mirrors. I got to get me a pair of those, the stock mirrors are useless. the roof is about ready to be redone. The PO had a full Gibson exhaust installed, headers to tailpipe and the tires are in great condition. Not sure on the vin but can check that a little later, coach has 60K, we paid $6300.

[chaos2767]

Was able to solve the issue of not getting power from the batteries to the coach and the problem was the bottom disconnect solenoid. So excited now to be ready to do some desert camping with the family!

Great news. Have fun.
