For others considering the same path…I found additional detail and some photos in this thread:
I really hope that someone else on the forum has worked on this system. It seems a shame to not have it functional.
Thanks!

Robert:
Just looked up the wiring for my head lights. (Photo attached). I do see something that is on the passengers side (circled on drawing).
Problem is I really don’t understand electrical drawings and I am not sure what I am looking at (circled).
Maybe someone that understands what they are looking at in this drawing could explain. -
Jon:
Previous owner had the lights changed, no documentation left behind. Do not know who did the headlight change. Although no pun intended its pretty good LOL.

Yes, I know I have chassis wiring, but this packet was house wiring.

Chuck, Most of the burner noise is the plastic clutches and the roar of the fire. If you high pitch whine has quieted down, perhaps the clutches have gotten quieter, a good thing.
If the roar is quieter along with the motor noise, that can be a cause for concern. If the motor is slowing down, the amount of air is reduced and that needs attention now.
The key quick way to determine how it is running is to look at the exhaust while firing. The whine needs to be high pitched and the roar needs to be smooth. The exhaust needs to be clean and clear. White or blue smoke needs attention soon. Black smoke needs attention now. Shut the burner off till black smoke is fixed.
You are welcome to call me between 8 and 8 central if that would help. 7 one 3 8 one 8 3234

I was told by sun pass that you need 1 pass for coach and toad. It counts total number of axles and counts the toad with the coach. Same for pulling a trailer. In fact, they warned me about having a pass in both that I could be charged twice. Have run a single transponder for years. Have never been billed after fact for toad. Very careful to remove transponder in car prior to hitting a toll road towing.

TNJET, I have an 08 Marathon. As others said, that panel controls the back up camera. My camera died last year. The company that makes the camera and switch isn’t in business anymore according to Marathon. We really searched to find a replacement that would work and it took a couple of iterations to get a solution. Marathon in Grand Prairie has the solution if your camera dies. They have put it in several buses since mine as a replacement. I have had the same issue on the GFI circuit for the trickle charger. I try to check every few days to make sure it hasn’t tripped. So far it has tripped twice in the 2 years that I have owned the bus.

Hey Mark:
If you don’t go over the speed bumps to fast you should be able to keep the coach grounded. LOL

Many, many years ago we along with a number of other coaches had awnings ripped off or damaged by strong sudden winds in Colorado Springs. We adjusted our route home and stopped at the ZipDee facility near Chicago and they repaired and improved the entire awning system.
Detroit is not that far from Chicago.

Chuck, you are verifying why I state wheel weights are only temporary and that tires move relative to the wheel.
If Centramatics were not on my coach when I bought it, I would have been using Equal or its equivalent. I used Equal from about 1995 to 2012 and the only thing I had to do was after checking tire pressures give the valve a strong shot of air to insure nothing had gotten under the seat of the schrader valve. I also only used the schrader valves with the fiter screen.
