  • lost power

    Posted by Rick & Denise on August 2, 2013 at 4:39 pm

    I lost power to the light group as I enter the coach,light group behind the drivers seat and the front creston. Lost all at the same time so I am guessing they are on the same line. I checked the owners manual but didn’t see anything for these 3 items. I know where the mass of fuses for the house is on the left side. Aside from calling Liberty does anyone where to start. Also when I turn on the bus air the 4 fans turn but the light on the switch doesn;t come on. Thanks Rick

    Rick,

    This is hard to diagnose from afar but if you have a listing of the 24 volt circuits in the Liberty manual try to find the circuit number and if you can the A-B relay number. If I had to guess it will not be the fuse or circuit breaker, but it is likely to be one of the small green rectangular relays under the PLCs.

    When I sold my 97 coach my books which had the info went with it so I cannot help you there.

    If you don’t have a list of the circuit or relay numbers try this:

    Look at the back wall in the electric compartment and you will see some red lights indicating which circuits are powered up. If you are questioning which lights just turn a switch on and off while looking and you will see the light alternate between on and off. Denise may have to operate the switch for something that is 24VDC powered such as any working light circuit.

    Once you understand about the red lights you will see they correspond to one of the green relays that pull out and push in.

    Have Denise operate the lights that do not work by turning the switch on and off continuously. Swap that relay with any other one to verify the problem is the relay or something else. Make sure all the circuit breakers and fuses are good before you do that however.

    All fixed, I can’t believe I over looked the fuse some how. Are all those relays the same? I don’t have any spares and am thinging of stocking up. My owners manual shows no info on 24v relays. Rick

    Yes, All the little green relays are the same and I think I bought a box of them (10) for $25. I carry them because they are what are switching the loads and every couple of years one will quit.
