According to the chassis manual the 1990 is a one year only setup with the yellow button and no foot emergency brake, 91 to 93 show a foot emergency brake, basically the whole system is different on the 1990 than the rest.
Anyone know where the fuel pump relay is on this thing? I fixed some of the wiring and put some back the way it was built and now it won't start, the fuel pump is not running. I didn't think anything I did had anything to do with the fuel pump but it must have.

Fuel pump relay- mine is at the left front (inside) of the dog house by the ac compressor. The fan relay is also there.

Our first MH was an Ultrastar on a '91 P series chassis. The autobrake had a yellow knob, no foot pedal, AND a parking pawl in the transmission. Go figure. Check the oil pressure sending switch. The fuel pump circuit is wired through the sender. If the sender is faulty or the plug is loose or disconnected, the fuel pump won't run. Check the fuel pump fuse. If the fuse is OK, the pump can be checked by applying 12 volts to terminal "G" on the Assembly Line Data Link (ALDL)located somewhere under the dash, usually to the left of the steering column. Terminal "G" is the terminal on the lower row, furthest left.

Hi, I figured out the problem with the fuel pump, For some reason the power supply wire to the relay has a weak connection. I tried to find where it got juice from but I gave up in that mess. I added in a wire and a fuse hooked to the orange wire at the relay and went to a good 12 volt source and problem fixed. I know its not the right way to fix it but I have spent almost 3 days messing with the wiring on this thing and I am getting sick of it.
This thing even had some of the wires to the turn signal lamps cut, I have half a day in just getting the outside lights to work again and I am still not done, the left side headlights have problems yet, one don't come on at all and the other is real dim, probably a broken or cut ground like everything else on this thing.
I have the front on heavy ramps and it blocked so it can't roll off them and one back wheel off the ground so I can turn the drive shaft to work on the parking brake. I hope I can get that figured out tomorrow, but like everything else on this thing it will be a real pain in the butt to fix that also.
I guess I have to pull the cover off the rear end to see what's up with that. If I turn the drive shaft real gently I can feel the backlash in the gears and they feel tight so I don't know why it has so much slop in it otherwise. Maybe the cross pin is all shot and has the holes all egged out.

Here is a picture of the mess I found when I opened up the dash, after I messed around for ever trying to figure out how to get at all this LOL. The dash just tips up toward the windshield. A picture if the link works that is, I hope I did it right.

Tom it sounds like you have the tiger by the tail so hang on till you wear her down so she purrs like a kitten.
When rotating our tires I did notice some clucking on the right rear (forgot to check it one the left) with 94K miles. I do not know what is within normal limits.

You have one of the early AutoPark morphs with your "yellow knob version."
The problem with the reservoir overflow is due to overtravel of the actuator.
If you could send me a Private Message with your email address, we can take you through the troubleshooting and repair sequence a step at a time. This CAN BE a somewhat tedious process, but by no means impossible.
It is interesting that you've had several responses, but so far, I don't think anyone has mentioned the specific term "AutoPark" - - We do a daily search on that keyword but have somehow not picked up your thread. Normally, we can offer help sooner - - sorry about that. Let us know if we can help.

The reason for spelling is so that all of the words don't look the same.

Hi, I have a chassis manual with a bunch of service bulletins in the back, some are about the auto-park in the 90 model year. I got the brake adjusted up like it says in the bulletin but I can't move the cable adjustment because it is all rusted up. The brake was way loose and there is a bunch of slop in the cable. I wondered if the brake had way to much travel would cause the oil to spray out of the tank. After I get the cable adjuster loose and other things checked over I will send you a PM about this thing. I sure can use the help on this thing. Everything I touch on this thing gives me trouble.

Hi again, I forgot to ask where the backup light switch is on this thing, The backup lights also don't work like everything else on this thing.

Did you adjust the brake shoes with the star wheel adjuster inside the brake drum? Yes, the steering fluid spewing from the reservoir is probably caused by the spring brake mechanism traveling too far (due to the brake shoes being out of adjustment and/or the cable being slack) and causing the fluid to expel. I recently stumbled onto a product called "Freeze Off". It comes in a spray can and loosens rusty fasteners better than anything I have used so far.
