'00 LXi Suspension Level Alarm

[Donald Goodwin]

I did not do a good job explaining, I just removed fuse where purple wire
went to. I also



Had bluebird redo sensors under warranty but it still come on
occasionally.



I Put The Fuse In When I Stop And Usually It Is Fixed. It Is Handy Not To
Listen To the Buzzer



Going Down the Road. I Travel With a Group of Bluebird's and they
ocassio9nally experience the same



Problem some LXI's And Some LX's. There alarm will not come back on when
the fuse is put back on the



Next stop.

When I bought my coach that purple wire was snipped.
I reconnected it and diagnosed my slide pin that wasn't
engaging properly. I suppose there are cases where the
buzzer buzzes spontaneously, but I'm not sure that snipping
the wire is the best solution for all. I connected mine, fixed
the root cause, and she's been fine ever since.
