I need someone that is in my area that knows bags and can change one if i order a new one, or if i get another kind that will not do this in this short of a time. What should i do? flat on the drivers side and will not fill with valve or auto pumping, with valve on or off. It has a leak around the front fold some where i have jacked up that side to

Is this a bag that may be exchanged?, it will buy new ones from harrison. i do not know what to do. now and need some one by anaheim to put them on when i get them. mickey anaheim ca. 77 palm beach. John has looked at my air pump inside and it is great. `120 psi in a few minutes.

>> Can Someone Please give me some Advice on what to do Next. Keep in Mind that I am too Old and Not Mechanically Inclined to Fix Anything Myself. The Motorhome is Leaking Air. I have taken it to 2 Different Places trying to find the Leaks. Both Places said the Air Bags are Not Leaking. One place told me there was a Very Small Leak in a Plastic Washer close to the Air Bag that didn't amount to much which is on the Drivers side - the Other Place worked on it for a number of hours and said there were 5 Leaks alone on the Drivers Side in the Fittings that they fixed but there was still another leak somewhere because in a 24 hour Period - it was going down 1/2". After they fixed the leaks they found - it does ride higher and I believe drives a little better than it did. On the way home, I left the switch on Auto instead of Hold and the compressor came on several times in 12 miles. I have had it home 10 days now - had the Switch on Hold - and still the back end is sinking.

>> e Drivers Side has dropped down 2 1/2" from the measurement I took after the compressor had the air bags full 10 days ago - the Passenger Side is down 5 1/2". The last place that fixerd it said it would be quite expensive to take the whole system out and replace it. I have already spent over $400 chasing Air Leaks. Does Anyone have Any Ideas what I should try next or should I just leave it alone? I want to take a trip in a month or so and am trying to get the problems fixed in advance.
