Monaco Diplomat Rear Air Suspension Won't Dump Fully - Troubleshooting Guide

Last week my 2006 Monaco Diplomat's rear air bags started refusing to dump all the way down when I hit the air dump before leveling. The front dumps fine, but the back stays partially inflated.

I'm still pretty new to RV maintenance and not sure where to start troubleshooting this. Should I be hearing air escaping when I activate the dump? What are the most common causes when rear air bags won't dump completely? Any guidance on what to check would be really appreciated! …more

How to Fix Dutch Star Front Air Bags That Won't Inflate - Height Valve Troubleshooting

I replaced my 2006 Dutch Star height valve but the front air bags still won't inflate, the valve seems stuck, AND the whole front end is sitting way too low. The air pressure gauges look totally normal, but when I try to air up the front bags, they just won't fill up. Instead I'm hearing this whining noise and air is literally coming out of the height control valve exhaust port.

It's like the system thinks something's wrong but I can't figure out what. The bags themselves seem fine, and there's definitely air pressure in the system. What would cause the height valve to dump air instead of letting the bags inflate? This is driving me nuts! …more

RV Air System Leak: Front Tank Losing Pressure Solutions

Somewhere my neighbor's Class A maintains perfect air pressure in both tanks while my front tank keeps bleeding down overnight — what am I missing? My front air tank keeps losing pressure, but only when the coach is up on the air bags. When I jack up the rear and take weight off the bags, no pressure loss at all. Same thing when I dump the bags completely - holds pressure fine. The rear tank seems totally unaffected.

What's really puzzling me is after I shut down, I can hear this weird gurgling or burping sound coming from the front secondary tank until the system loses pressure. But here's the strange part - even though it's the front tank losing pressure, the rear of the coach sags way faster than the front after shutdown. I've meticulously sprayed soapy water at least 3 times on every fitting, valve, and connection I can reach around both the front tanks and rear bags, but I can't spot any visible leaks anywhere. Could really use some guidance on what I might be missing here.

Thanks,

2007 Dyna Max IE250 Air Ride Electrical Manual Location

According to my bank account, this 2007 Dyna Max IE250 air ride electrical manual hunt is eating through my repair budget faster than I can earn it. I've been dealing with some electrical issues and really need the wiring diagrams and troubleshooting procedures, but I can't seem to find this documentation anywhere online.

I've already tried the usual RV manual sites and even contacted a few local dealers, but nobody seems to have specific electrical documentation for the Dyna Air Ride system that was installed on these units. This is supposedly a premium suspension system, so you'd think the manuals would be easier to track down!

Does anyone know where I can actually get my hands on the electrical manual for this air ride system? I'm willing to pay for it at this point - I just need to get this thing working properly again. …more
