Manny came up last week and very graciously r and r ed my transmission, so
now it should be good to go. While the coach was still up in the air, we
tested it in all the gears and other than front brakes sticking a little,
all was great. However, when I went to move it a few days ago, when the key
was turned the buzzer went on, like its suppose to, but at the next
position none of the indicator lights lit up and in the start position,
nothing happened, not even the smallest click. Moving the tilt wheel up or
down has no effect on this either. However, briefly the lights did power,
along with the electric fuel pump. But only once. Checked battery voltage
at the isolator posts as battery is a pita to get to. Voltage was just
below 12 v, so a little low, but not enough to my mind to not light the
lights.
So, 1) could the connections that were disconnected and reconnected to
install the trani cause this problem if they aren't tight?
Or 2) Might this be a nsss problem?
Or 3) Might there be another connection that either a rodent has partially
chewed that works intermittently or that has became corroded over the
winter?
When I moved it to a spot for the trani replacement, all seemed fine and it
started with no trouble. Battery is only one year old.
Figuring since the lights did come on once after the problem there isn't a
blown fuse.
