Check Master Battery Cutoff - Leroy A. Eckert - 02-27-2008 08:29 I went out to start the bus today, it turned over about 5 times and everything shut down. Nothing worked. I snooped around and found no power exiting the master cutoff switch. I changed it out and all is well. I bought two of them one for a spare just in case it happens again out somewhere in the boonies. For $32.00 it is a good spare to carry if you have a battery master switch. fwiw.

Or the one in the overhead bulkhead? Don Spithaler 89 SP 36' Butler, PA In Zephyrhills, FL On Wed, Feb 27, 2008 at 3:29 PM, Leroy A.

One wire from the main hot gang battery point and three major hot wires to the starter and other places. All wires are the size of standard battery cables. 01- 02 gauge??? I took the occasion to clean the main ground connections at the same time. In my coach there are 5 major and 5 smaller wires hooked to the same ground point in the engine bay. After I corrected the problem I found the engine starter spun over rapidly and the engine fired after about 8 turns even though the temp was 30 degrees. Funny about these things. A couple of days ago I started the coach and noticed some starter sluggishness I had not encountered before. I concluded cold weather at the time. Not so. This is not the electronic master I am talking about. Leroy Eckert 1990 WB-40 Smoke N Mirrors Dahlonega, GA Royale Conversion Donald Spithaler
