Maiden Voyage Complete!!!
Every BB door I have ever seen has the same problem, if it is a problem. It is built like a tank so you live with it or let it fall off. lol. Now I hear about air locking doors. I cannot wait to have one of those.
On my coach, the thermostat that controls that kool o matic fan is the same thermostat that controls the space Cadet front electric toe heater in my coach.. My control is located over my left pilot shoulder between the pilot window and the roadside couch window. The front a/c heat master switch must be on for it to work.

There is a panel on the front of your coach with 20+ "screws" holding it in place. (Note, those "screws" are 1/4 turn fasteners with a spring behind them.) Use a screw driver, press "in" and turn counter-clockwise, the the fastener should pop-out (but remain in it's place -- they don't come all the way out).

The panel (made of fiberglas) is heavy and may 'stick' to the weather seal a bit. You may need to use a thin-blade screwdriver to get the panel to come away. Try not to drop it as you might chip the paint.
Once you're "in" the leveling jacks are controlled by "SK24" a 15 amp fuse. Also "SK69" is associated with "leveling jack ign/step ign trigger."
Obviously, if the breaker has flipped (or fuse has blown) you'll need to determine why this occurred. It is possible that there was a situation where the jacks were briefly overloaded and the breaker tripping is non-serious. But it
is also possible that there is a more serious problem. A multi-meter is helpful.
Note: you can download a chart I prepared for my coach (a '95 but likely very similar) for the front power center from
<http://homepage. mac.com/aeonix1/> File is named "LOAD_CENTER- FRT_95WL42. pdf"
Another non-intuitive hint. The AC switches on the driver's dash panel must be turned on for the heaters to work. AquaHot heat is controlled by the AC thermostats by setting the right-hand switch to "gas heat". You also need to turn on the "AH" switch on the dash panel (upper left quadrant , second row of the largest switch and instrument display).

Well 1 problem crossed off the list. I found the thermostat and turned off the fan. I
knew it was going to be something simple, I just couldnt figure out where they had
hidden the control.
As far as the jacks, I'm still stuck. i cant get power to the control panel to even operate
the system. I'm familiar with how the system functions, but I kill the motor, turn the key
to the on position, press the button on the pad, and nothing. No lights, no indicators,
no noises, its like I'm pressing on a blank wall. I'm sure there is a fuse or breaker
somewhere that is tripped or blown, but I have no idea where it might be located.
I'm sorry for the questions, but I've never had anyone instruct me on the Bluebird, or
where any of its systems and controls are locate, so it feels as if I'm on a treasure hunt
most of the time.
Thanks again
Corey

Well, our new to us 96' WLWB is safe at home. We flew to Houston yesterday morning
and drove to Wimberley, then came on home today.
What a pleasant experience this has been for us. The coach was in every bit as good
of
shape as described, better than I expected. We drove a little over 500miles, and truely
made the trip without a glitch.
Now for my first questions, I have the same door problems as addressed in the door
seal
thread, so I'm going to try the remedies previously posted before asking additional
questions.
i am having two problems,
1. I cant get the leveling
system to power up, so I have no ability to level the coach.
I'm
not familiar with using jacks, as our last coach used the air to level, but I cant get a
light
to flicker on the control pad, so I don't know where to go from there.
2. There is a kool o matic fan in the galley, the fan runs all the time, and i absolutely
cant find a switch or rheostat to control the fan. So currently it runs all the time and
like
a dummy, I don't know where to turn it off.
I have several smaller issues, but I will address these 1 by 1 to make sure I get
everything completed before taking on the next task.
Corey,
No longer a Wannabe!!!
