Just purchased new excella

Hi we recently purchesed a gently used 1991 excella 25 ft and it has a switch that I cant figure out what it does. There no mention of it in the original owners book. It's the r.s./c.s. Switch thats over the range. Ill try and attach a photo for reference. Thanks

Does it have a microwave? It could be a switch that determines whether power goes to the A/C unit or the microwave. I have a switch like that in my '85 Excella.

Greetings from Sisters...

I can't help you with the switch as my '90 25' Excella doesn't have one. I just wanted to congratulate you on your acquisition and welcome you to the 25' Excella Club (very exclusive group).

BTW, the Oregon WBCCI chapter has some great outings. Hope to see you along the trail.

Cheers,
John

Road Side and Curb Side for something like the LP gas?

That was the only thing (road side, curb side) that I could think of for those initials - the LP part was just a guess too. Maybe it's road side, curb side for something else.

Does Airstream keep records on things like this? Maybe they have an answer

Hi, I recently purchased a 93 Excella 25.
Mine has a switch between air condition and microwave.

Since there's a single button on the meter selector for LP, my guess would be that the original cylinders had level gauges with a sending unit (and may still have) and you select road side or curb side to determine which cylinder's level is displayed when you press the LP button.

Thanks for all the response I contacted the original owner today. She wasn't sure at the moment but I sent her a picture. It could vey well be something with the lpg, I guess well find out when one tank drops below full.
