Ok, I finally heard something I did not want to hear.

My implant is great. there are slight adjustment problems that will need to be made next spring. When speakers use word with a heave ‘S’ I hear a ssssss.  Years ago when some folk wore dentures they produced a whistle, the sound is something like that.

(Pictures today are from my cache of classics)

Now the problem, Sherry has talked about a ‘ssssssssss’ noise over toward the driver’s side of the motor home. OUCH, NOW I HEAR IT! so it must be time to fix it.

At Yemassee,SC I disassembled the left panels covering the parking brake (formerly called the EMERGENCY brake! )_ The Parking brake is air actuated, using soap and water I found the leak, but at present have no idea how to fix it. It is a valve housing, but I cannot see how to take it apart. I know everything comes apart, and I can usually figure it out, but this little sucker has me stumped.  I Put the coach back together and will give it some thought. I am also searching the net for the answer. So far no luck.

I don’t see any danger at present.  I did lose pressure at the same device in another coach going down Saluda Mt on I-26 once. Sherry was behind me driving my sister Kat’s coach.  These suckers are hard to steer without power steering or brakes.   But all was well I got down the mt and coasted to a stop just off the road.

Anyway it was good to be on the road again, this coach sat for 12 weeks while the implant was completed. I cannot remember when it sat that long!

WE are home again in Florida.  We  begin our wait for the upcoming cruise.  I may get to a truck place and check on this valve.
