    Chuck – I use WORD and then highlight the entire thing, use “ctrl
    C” to copy, then go to the PC site get the cursor showing and hit “ctrl V” to
    paste.
    Works every time.The only thing I have found is that the PC
    program will remove the space between the period at the end of a sentence and
    the start of the next sentence, and you need to do like you were taught in High
    School Typing and double space at the end of a sentence.
    I use
    Word because it doesn’t pause like the PC site, but most important because it
    has Spell Checker that I most definitely need from time to time.

    I have not removed the batteries but they are older Optima Yellow tops. Can’t find date code. Will remove and load test but I suspect that at least 1 is gone. Sorry to jump to a second post but I can’t seem to get more than 2 characters typed

    Yes, It should be the same on the 91 XL. A reverse sigmal is sent from the World Transmission to the VIM box. From there the signal is sent ot the rear of the vehicle to energize R9 that lights up the back up lights and energizes the back up alarm. Most of the motor home shells cme with a back up alarm cancel switch on the dash to stop it from operating when you are trying to aprk late at night.

    Thanks for such detailed information and pictures – much less daunting!

    Does that R9 also work on a 1991 model XL model. Wife said my backup lights weren’t working the last time out and come to think of it the beeper wasn’t either. Will have to get over to coach in the next day or two and check.

    Mike,

    If your reference is to chassis batteries I would urge you to make sure they are connected in accordance with the wiring diagram that should be on the side door next to the batteries.

    One of the most frequent problems reported on the forum and in my email inbox is the bus won’t start or the batteries won’t charge. Almost 100% of the time the batteries have had the cables hooked up wrong.

    Some folks have looked at them as many as three times, called them correct, and then when looking again realized there was a problem. If they are cabled together correctly the next step is to separate them and check each one individually for a bad one. One bad battery in the set can create issues.

    A final thing to check is the equalizer. I would like to see the 12 and 24 voltage when the engine is running, but if that is not possible, charge each individually to the float voltage, reinstall them, start the engine and check voltages at both 12 and 24 volt posts. The 12 volt reading should be exactly 1/2 of the 24 volt reading within 1/2 volt.

    Mile,

    I moved your post to chassis from urgent and not sure if your pissed or are really thanking us. You posted on 12/23 and had until 1/9 to get it fixed, so it seemed reasonable to move the post to a non emergency. If your pissed, read this description of the emergency topic:

    This topic is for urgent help, breakdown or emergencies while traveling. Do not make any other posts in this topic, it will be deleted or moved.
