Full Timing

Hi all,

I am new to the forum but not new to RV’ing. I’ve had pop-ups, and TT and for the past 2 years my 4 legged assistant and I have gone full time in a 1988 Tiffin 28’ Allegro. But finding it a bit small, we moved up to a 2000 Fleetwood Pace Arrow 37K or will once we get her a new alternator wiring harness! Found out that Ford no longer manufactures it and have been searching high and low with no luck.

Finding that after years in the corporate world I really enjoy the freedom of the backwoods and on the road, not enjoying the city life at all. So I really need to get this (new to me) lady back up and running. I figured this might be a good place for advice on finding this harness.

No idea about your harness (other than the obvious like google).
Good luck!

We are glad you joined us. Sorry I can't help with your alternator problem either. Maybe a good Ford mechanic can manually wire the alternator? Browse the forums that interest you and don't be afraid to ask questions as our members like to help when they can. Please keep us posted on the solution to your problem and good luck. Enjoy the forums.

Don

Welcome to the forum.

You are joining a good group of folks with good info to share. A good independent shop may have your answer.

Good luck and continue to enjoy the adventure.

Well it looks like I will be re-engineering the harness. Was hoping to find a used one but no go.

That is your best bet I’m thinking unless you want to put 1-wire G3 type alternator on it. Probably easier to rebuild the wiring harness. One thought: Have you checked the fuse links that are probably in line somewhere?

Welcome to the IRV2.com FORUM(S).

I hear every word, sometimes we have to let go of the ideas and concepts using EMPTY and look at old ideas in a different way. When you came back to you were right its time to move on. You do this knowing the others are not going in the same direction. It hurts, but rewarding after being retired and look back only to find the changes made were wrong and you may have been right felt kind of good as you turn and walk away with a bit of a smile.

As for being an RV'er your own boss, forums not so much as at times your talking with folks who want to know why the sky is falling. Enjoy, keep pressing on.

When you first enter this group, a new Member may feel a bit overwhelmed by all the forums you can find here. First, you need to set up your USER CP
Once you open and start a menu will open on the left side just take it all in the step-by-step top to bottom.

NEXT, you will find this forum is made up of 14-Forums broken into four-part forums. First is the HOME, top left above the member's menu. This forum is very helpful to new members to learn and become more familiar with overtime.

NEXT TO HOME is FORUMS on the top left covering Community, RV Lifestyles, Regional and RV Camping. and to the right of this is RV Forums.

RV FORUMS on the top left covers a lot about TRUCKS, Conversations, MVT's, HDT's, Travel Trailers/5th Wheel Chassis & TECH stuff, Chassis CLUB, RV SYSTEMS, Powertrain Garage.

Then you have the OWNERS FORUMS Covering Registry, A-M, and N-Z.

Now if you pan down to the bottom of the page you will find other FORUMS and if you know or have a Class B, you can direct or join the CLASS B FORUMS at Class B Forums And if you get down to Florida this link may be very HELPFUL http://www.CampFlorida.com Enjoy the Roads.

So welcome you again, I hope you join in the fun and share your knowledge by helping new members find their way in this forum as you would in, any RV Park. Again, make sure to set up your USER CP as this is helpful to you and other members. Again if you enjoy or think of starting your own RV Blog you can do that here as well above on menu bar is BLOGS Enjoy and safe TRAVELS. You can also find RV PARKS above in CAMPGROUNDS.
