Home after stopping 6 times to let RV cool off and shut it off and restart it. Kept losing power and spitting a CEL.

Thanks to jeepguy for following most of the way home and sticking behind me as long as his travel path allowed.

No worries, didn't mean it that way, it messed up once on the way down, mentioned it to a couple people, but figured I'd get it home or use good Sam towing again.

I even stumped Manchies code reader tool box as truck/bus connectors in 2001 weren't obd2.
