  • Level Low Alarm, Will Not Stop.

    Posted by Matthew on February 16, 2014 at 4:14 am

    First. Thank goodness I’m at home and the coach is in the garage, because this noise is making me want to hurt something.


    Second. The alarm is going off constantly, level low is switched to off as well as the HWH system. Another interesting fact is with the coach on (engine running) the alarm no longer makes noise.

    Along with the alarm turning off the converter installed telltale lights, battery hi and battery balance are illuminated. Does anyone have any ideas? I’m going to begin searching for the root of the problem tomorrow; if all else fails I’m removing the buzzer in the dash.


    Best regards,

    We have a limited number of audible alarms and I am not aware of any that relate to the level low or DC electrric system issues.

    To the best of my knowledge we have air pressure audible alarms, tag lift alarm, fire detector (engine compartment) alarm, and there may be more but I cannot think of any.

    Have you checked to verify if the voltages to the Vanner monitor are within acceptable limits? Out of spec voltages are going to trigger the warning lights. Are the alarms you hear the same ones that indicate low air pressure?

    When I had my bus in Prevost Houston for wheel seal replacement they had bus up off floor on lifts and asked me to release parking brake knob. Pushed In and it started screaming at me. Said with motor shut down and brakes released would hollar until you pushed it back in. They had to replace a bearing race and had it in over night and wonder if they shut power down on switches in engine compartment. Mine doesn’t have all the gizmos newer ones do.
