I HAVE A 1999 GULF STREAM ON A F-53 CHASSIS AND THE PROBLEM IS WHEN DRIVING IN WET WEATHER THE AIR INTAKE TAKES IN WATER CAUSING THE VEHICLE INTO A GREAT DEAL OF LOSS OF POWER CAUSING A VERY SERIOUS ROAD HAZZARD . I HAVE READ ON THE RV FORUMS OF ADD ON PART TO HELP SOLVE THIS PROBLEM BUT THE PRICE QUOTED ON THE FORUM 0F $15.39 IS NOT THE PRICE I FOUND FOR THE PART ON THE FORD SITE FOR THE PART . I DON,T MIND PAYING FOR THE PART BUT I FEEL $49.53 PLUS SHIPPING RATHER HIGH TO FIX A PROBLEM THAT IS FROM FAULTY ENGINEERING ON THEIR PART AND WHICH COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT THANK YOU IN AN ANY ASSISTANCE YOU COULD CAN GIVE ME
DT*: THE CONTACT STATED AFTER DRIVING FOR AN HOUR AT NIGHT, THE VEHICLE WOULD OVERHEAT. THIS CAUSED THE INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR LIGHTS, THE DEFROSTER AND FAN TO FAIL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE ROCKER SWITCH WAS REPLACED 5 OR 6 TIMES. THIS SWITCH CONTROLS THE RUNNING LIGHTS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP AND IT WAS DETERMINED ALL OF THE COMPONENTS THAT WERE FAILING WERE CONNECTED TO THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH. THIS CAUSED AN OVERLOAD, WHICH CAUSED THE COMPONENTS TO FAIL. THE VEHICLE WAS REWIRED. THE HEAD LIGHT SWITCH WAS REPLACED. UPDATED 03/22/06. *JB
