If like most vehicles, they only work with your low beams.

:welcome:
4x4 is right, virtually all states require fog/driving lights to turn off when high beams turn on. If that is not the solution, a blown fuse or broken ground may be.

I merely echoed what 4x4van said, but you're welcome anyway.

Hey Robb1:
Is yours a diesel or gas? If diesel, what kind of mpg do you get?

Rob, had same coach for 8 yrs. That little speaker is attached to your rear camera. Should have volume control knob on video monitor. Pretty useless IMO unless you want to hear noise from rear of coach.

It is helpful if backing into a tight spot and verbal commands from your spotter help to convey any augmenting instructions that hand signals alone cannot. Sometimes a loud and firm "STOP" coming from your spotter is the most effective form of communication (you may have looked away from the camera to check a mirror or front corner of coach).
I also turn up the sound every now and then to make sure that I don't have any unusual noises from the tow bar or toad, or the slight flapping noise from a failing tire.

Robb1 - Congrats on your purchase. I bought the same model back in Feb '16. Really like it. Mine had 70K on the odometer and was in fine condition. But, I have run into a few issues. And when I get them solved, I do a write up on my RV repair blog: '02 Journey Repair Blog...
Maybe you can find something there that's useful...

Robb, if you are on a fairly level site, just use the jacks to level coach. Level side to side first, then front to back. I always put wooden pads down under the jack feet. If you are on a site that would require the wheels to be off the ground to get level, that's when I would drive onto blocks. I never would have any wheel lose contact with the ground.

Level coach first, then put slides out.

IIRC, there is a switch near the top of the One Place panel in the hallway for the water heater electric element. It may be near the switch for the engine block heater.

Yes i did see that switch in the hallway but when i turned it on i didnt hear my water heater kick on. Someone had told me that i can still turn it on without gas, is that true?
