In the current line up the BayStar, on the Ford F53 chassis, is available with a lift, then the next one up is the Vantana, diesel pusher Then the DutchStar also a diesel pusher. You might be able to find a stock unit and get a deal but beware these units do not like to sit for long periods unused on a lot. A lot unit should have an independent inspection. Bets of luck.

If the door remains in place when you actuate the opening remote, check the lock. Can you open the lift door from the outside with the handle? If not, It may be locked or stuck not allowing the door to unlatch and open. If you do get the door opened manually, lubricate the lock arms and mechanism as best you can. Hope this helps. Joe

@@goodxrvn2053 Thanks for responding. We pull the manual handle and it unlatches. Then by remote, a pump fills a pneumatic cylinder causing the door to swing open or shut. This is where the issue is. Pump doesnt run...and when fuse is replaced, it runs for a second and blows the 30a fuse

@@davidposalski There may be a limit switch that has become disconnected or has failed. Or the pump is failing trying to draw too many amps. If you can find a wiring diagram, look for the limit switches for the door system. If the setup is anything like a DutchStar the pump is located at the back of the short tray. The baggage tray underneath the lift door. You might call Newmar Customer Service for guidance.

The Customer Pickup allows the customer to work with a Sr Tech at Newmar to both inspect and be trained on the new RV. Being somewhat technical myself, I work with the Tech to fully inspect, operate and verify all systems while you are at the Factory Service Center. Each system is explained and tested in from of you.

Took delivery at the factory, the Newmar alignment warranty is 3000 miles or 3 months. Both exceeded in my case. Also spoke with Spartan, Matt at Spartan indicated that the chassis is not aligned at the factory. Comfort Steer and alignment needs to be setup and completed by body installer. Also, learned that I am 92 on the recall list for a new steering box. Hopefully the new parts are available soon to get that installed.

On the 3911 and 4311 the door compressor equipment is in a space at the back of the basement slide. Directly behind the Power Bay.

Yes. The CanyonStar did fulfill all expectations. Unfortunately we sold the CanyonStar and have recently purchased a DutchStar. I’ll follow up with a video about our experience with a Diesel Pusher.

These items use Nylon inserted Lock nuts and were final torqued after installation. Thanks for the comment

Can't wait!

Just a thought on the topic of micro switches and safety. For those reading this thread that may be unfamiliar with all that power interrupt micro switches disable. These safety switches disable the Lift during specific configurations. Power interrupt switches interrupt power when lift door is closed, vehicle is in gear, and other configurations where you do not want to be able to activate the lift motors by choice or accidently. Have you ever sat on a remote by mistake and activated a system accidently?? Make sure you understand everything that is disabled when excluding micro switches. Also, you will have to turn off the Lift manually when it is stored to avoid battery drains and excessive light on hours. My 0.02. Happy Travels...

@@goodxrvn2053 I have a high top passenger van that was used as a school bus for disabled children, not a RV, so I leave my lift switch on the lift post, never have to worry about sitting on it. I bypass the safety because I use it to lift large bulky items that sometimes will press against the front plate stopping it from raising mid lift. I definitely have accidentally left the lift switch on a couple times and drained my battery. Thankfully I carry a jump pack with me as well as long jumper cables so it hasn't left me stranded yet. The next mod I'm going to do is to power the door ajar light that my van came equipped with from the lift power so that when I power on my lift the light will remind me to turn it back off.

How did you bypass the safety micro switches? I’m wanting to install one in a box truck

Glad I could be a help!

Thanks for your comment. The remote model is in the show notes. You will find many business people will not make this modification as it is outside of Braun's US wheelchair lift specifications. The lift is designed by Braun to be operated by an "attendant" . Even the remote control manufacturer will not endorse this application for Liability purposes. All that said, it is a terrific modification and a similar device is available from Braun in Europe. These controllers are available on the Internet. Any person with wiring skills should be able to connect it for you. It is a simple addition. Best of luck with your Newmar. We are also in the market for a new Newmar Dutchstar 4311. Hopefully by Spring 2023🙂

@@goodxrvn2053 That is SO sad! Maybe they ought to sit in a chair to figure out how impossible their system is. We will figure out how to make this to help us make our lives easier while traveling. Many thanks! LA🙏❤️

An excellent question, over 4 years of travel, covering 25,000 miles, there have been only a couple of times that the hook ups were inaccessible. Those times either a local camper or campground staff were quick to help with the hook ups. That said, normally our stops are either dry camping (no hookups) or established campgrounds, National, State, County campgrounds with a combination of either partial or full hookups. Typically i managed the hooking up of the RV when traveling alone or with my wife, Gail. Thank you for the question.

The micro switch used to disable lift if not in Park with the gear selector is on teh transmission where the shifter cable joins the shift lever on the transmission. The lift door switch is on the door frame, a small black rubber covered switch.

@@goodxrvn2053 Thank you . what about the parking break switch?

Glad it helped

Thanks for watching. The lift installed in this RV has a max lifting capacity of 1000 lbs.

Thank you for watching. If your lift has a tag specifying the model, go to teh Braun suer manual website to get a wiring diagram. This will be very useful to determine how the lift operates.. www.braunability.com/us/en/commercial/support/manual-index.html

@@goodxrvn2053 thanks for the response. I'll go to your link and find out if I have better luck than the one I've been to. It didn't have my model listed but I believe it was a sales site with limited support for new installations with basic troubleshooting for their current product line
