We're working on our front dome light circuits and can't figure out why the switches are double throw. Switched up, the lights come on, center off, but what is the switched down position for. Checked the operating manual and can't find it. We thought maybe it was part of the galley light system but that switch by the entry door only lights up the fixture above the sink.

So, we had to check in with the brains on the forum. Any help is much appreciated.

By the way, Matt Colie helped us with our fuel supply system. Just got the coach back from the shop, cleaned and reconditioned gas tanks (tank renu) and new fuel lines to the solenoid. We had a bad and cracked generator fuel line that leaked. Once fixed and the rest just for peace of mind we're back in business. Still have fuel gauge problems but the sending units are OK so we'll track that down when we get more time. Right now only the auxiliary part of the gauge works, no reading for the main tank. But we've had occasional main tank reading but not recently.

We're off this weekend for our first trip over 100 miles to Ludington, MI to spend Friday and Saturday night at the state park there.

Our speedometer bounces around a little too so we're keeping an eye on it. We're hoping it just needs to be exercised. We peeked at the cable behind the dash and it doesn't seem to come apart so we could lubricate it. Anyone know if in fact it does come off there so we could lubricate it some? Looks OEM. We have a 1977 Kingsley, 403 with a brand new 3.70 final drive with limited slip. Hope we make it there and back in one piece.

Thanks all!
