Found and reset circuit breakers, swapped relays, reset all small circuit breakers, walked around bus several times uttering unprintable phrases, all to no avail. Taking His Majesty to a bus repair facility Thurs. Will post outcome. Thanks again, Dan

Dan,

Hate to see you having this trouble. If you want to get into the nitty gritty and work backwards you ahould have power to wire 84 in the front junction box when the key is in the start position. If the coach will not front start, that is the last point in the front box before going to the front/rear start selector switch.

I assume you checked relays 1 and 2, also check relay 6 and CB10. It could be as simple as a bad ignition switch.

Well, after my visit to Liberty Coach last week, they did confirm that I had a bad alternator which was giving me the often fluctuating voltages while the bus was running.

So, after a quick alternator replacement, all is well and the voltage at the house batteries, while the engine is running, is fine. Janice supervised all the maintenance work as I was stuck at jury duty during our stay at Liberty.

As a side note, they checked my chassis battery wiring and confirmed that all was normal with respect to the "mystery yellow wires" that was the topic of so much discussion a while back.

And Truk, they gave us high marks for the work on the chassis battery wiring and installation of the battery charger so, if we are ever in need of a career changing out chassis batteries, they have a spot for us.....

Wow, you mean Janice got us an atta-boy while at Liberty?

[phorner]

Yeah, Truk. Somehow, Janice seems to get a lot more personal attention from the service tech's than I can muster.

Look in the mirror Paul and turn sideways, now you know!
