Stupid question here. Dan, you mentioned the bus started from the rear. Are you sure that the remote start switch is back fully in the regular operating position?

Ray, that was a good question. It's all in the details!!!!!!!!! :D
This switch has 3 positions. in the up position I get several clicks and then I can pust starter button and engine cranks. middle position says off and bottom position says normal. I assume it should be in the normal position for starting from dash??? is that right? Dan
Dan: My vote would be the round starter relay in the front electrical box under the drivers left window. Mine got lazy and I had to tease it with the ignition switch on and off. If it finally kicks in and the starter works, go to an auto supply that serves the truck industry and get another 24V relay. A spare one on hand would not hurt, because we have others in locations around the coach. If you have help use the electrical tester on the relay as the ignition switch is turned to start. It makes me feel bad you are experiancing so many problems in such a short time. Hang in there they will all get solved soon.
Dan,
Did anything out of the ordinary happen during the charger installation?
Maybe a stupid question but are the oil and antifreeze levels up to where they should be to not shutdown the engine. When my fluids are low the engine will not start from the front only from the rear and then only for 20 to 30 seconds.

Harry,
Different relays in the newer shells. I think Dan's coach has the square black ones for the most part. There are few of the round silver ones because they were nothing but trouble.
Nothing happened when hooking up charger as I know of. Will try to check relays today. Engine runs for as long as I want when starting from rear, so fluids are okay. Thanks to everyone for help and suggestions. Dan
Everyone mentions that I should check circuit breakers located above or around 24 and 12 v cutoff switches. Well guess what, I cannot find those but I do have a row of vertical red buttons that are fuses are breakers????
Help, Dan
Dan, the circuit breakers are brown or black plasitc devices with a round red button. You can trip and reset them. I think the only one applicable since you have the full dash would be CB18 in the rear box. You would see the indicator popped out
I assume you checked the relays.
It could be in the key switch also, but the other stuff does not require any disassembly, other than moving a relay or two.
