Musical horn module
The front load center is covered by a _fiberglas_ panel and held in place with a couple dozen screws. Danger -- the "screws" are not screws, but are 1/4 turn spring loaded connecters. Turning them with a power screw driver can/will break them, causing a headache to replace same. (Please don't ask how I happen to know this.) To unlock the fasteners, push in and turn counter clockwise, then release. It should pop out about 1/3 inch, but will not fall out (unless the fastener is partially broken).
When you remove the cover, be sure to take care in handling it -- it's not that heavy, but it is awkward to work with. A breezy day is not a good day to fuss with it. Dropping it can chip the paint on the edge. Check the quality of the insulating rubber strip around the perimeter. It's intended to eliminate/reduce water entry during rainy travel. I found it necessary to remove the old and apply a fresh strip obtained from a hardware store.
I made a list of all the fuses and relays in the front load center that I could identify (from the wiring diagrams I have) that you can download from -- file is second from the bottom titled "LOAD_CENTER-FRT_95WL42.pdf" A '95 'bird also has a load center in the rear closet, street side. There is also a "stealth" load center _behind_ the overhead cabinets at the front of the coach above the windshield (inside). The interior backs of the cabinets are removable -- and there are a bunch of fuses, etc. My spouse had managed to blow the fuse for the power passenger seat by twiddling several of the power controls at the same time. I spent weeks trying to trace the power source and only discovered it when I replaced my 'flying saucer' TV antenna and had to poke behind the cabinets for some of the wires -- and (lo, and behold) there was a whole 'nother power center with the blown fuse serving the passenger seat... Sorry, I have never been able to make similar lists of fuses/relays for the overhead or rear power center -- but I've found that 95% of the fuse/electrical issues end up in the front center. =============================================== Pete Masterson, Author of Book Design and Production: A Guide for Authors and Publishers "Aeonix1@Mac.com" Aeonix Publishing Group http://www.aeonix.com =============================================== On Feb 17, 2009, at 7:05 AM, Ron Thompson wrote:
