Hi forum,
Just another question from the learning center. I have a blue rocker switch on the wall to the left of my stove top. I have a 76 edgemonte. Does anybody know what function it serves? Nothing happens when i operate it. Looks original but who knows

Who knows is probably the correct guess. The 76 maintenance manual for your model ZEO6582 does not show a switch there. You could possibly tell if it has original color coded wires attached. When I bought my current coach it had a switch by the door that looked like it was possibly original but when I pulled it out of the recess it had non original wires and it was not connected to anything. Check for voltage.

Could you go to the control panel on the forum and add a signature that has some basic information like location, year and model of coach. It helps people to answer questions or even just come over and lend a hand.

It might be a second water pump switch, easier to access than the one by
the entry door, for those of us who constantly forget to turn it off. And
then are reminded by the occasional "brppp" of the pump.

Jeff,
Go to <Control Panel> (sort of upper right task bar) Then to <Account Settings> (shows up in a new task bar over on the left)
There you will see a bunch of stuff. If you see three plus signs, those open those areas. There is <Required Information>, <Optional Information> and <Preferences> You need the third <Preferences>.
When you click on that Plus, it will open and the first box is the "Signature" Fill that that box in with your name, a bit about the coach (year, model, major mods) and add a geographic reference. That is just about what we need to assist you.
When you get done with that, scroll down and look at the other choices, there may be something there that matters.
You do want to check the "yes" on show signature.
You must go all the way down to the <Update> and click that or it will all be lost.

Matt
