I just got back from weekend at jordan lake, crosswinds campground, added pic to photo site of camper in site.
My dash warning light and buzzer, the one that warns to put air system into travel. This little thing ran the whole way to campground. (one hour) what an aggrevation. I removed the fuse for return trip home.
Where is the timer relay that operates this buzzer?
Any pics of it?
Any part numbers?
Thanks Bgk

On my '78 palm beach, the time delay relay is behind the instrument cluster, easily accessible if you take the top cover off the dash. Looks like this one, with same pins from Napa:

The wire colors from the schematic were correct, found here for the '78: http://www.bdub.net/wirediagrams/78-chassis-electrolevel-II.gif
The '73 schematic shows the buzzer taped in right before the time delay relay
Look for the warning - tell tales on the schematic. Mine was just laying behind the tell tale cluster.
If it's on and won't go off, could indicate a time delay relay that is failed open on the heat coil.
By the way, I don't know for certain the NAPA part I listed is a direct replacement - it just looks the same and I put it out there so you'd know what the time delay relay looks like.
