Hi fellows!!
Our coach finally arrived in Finland couple weeks ago. It took almost three months from buying to get it here.
It survived on shipping petty well, nothing was broken or scrathced as I was afraid of.
Outside mirrors and cargo box were taken off as were rear air bags, there was threaded rod and piece of steel water pipe in place of bags.
We need to do some modifications to get it inspected and registrated here (need to remove 115volts electrics and propane system and chance some driving/parking/clearance lights), and today we got coach inspeted and shiny brand new Finnish plates on it.
That about foreword, while working on coach last weeks I noticed that bathroom and rear ceiling lights doesnt work always.
Today noticed that water pump, toilet flush pump and floor lights were gone too. Check fuses and those were okay, do some measuring and found out that there was no ground.
I search easíly accessible places, but I couldnt find where they are grounded.
I`m quite sure someone here can give some tip where to look for.
Should mention that problem started before any modifications were done.

Jack,
Download the following:

This manual is the general manual for the coaches and then get the following:

This will have the wiring diagrams for your coach.

Hi Jake, check your fuse panel by your converter, I had similar problems with mine, things wouldn't work then when you touched the fuse panel it would work, intermittent. Check your connections at the fuse panel and think about replacing the fuse panel with a newer one...good luck, Glenn
