Suspension & Air Horn - New Experience

[Curt Sprenger]

New Experience…Night before last the partying ladies were sitting in
our coach driver seat with my hat on having their pictures taken like
they were driving the coach. They were having a great time. Fast
forward to this am…I tried to air up the coach. It would not air up.
The optional on board electric air compressor just kept running. I
started the big engine and after a few seconds heard a fairly loud
sound coming from the front top of the coach. I shut the big engine
down and the sound went away in a few seconds. The optional air
compressor continued to run. I crawled up on the roof and found the
speakers emitting low noise. Climbed down, went into the coach and did
the “what the **** was messed with” review. I discovered the steering
wheel horn button was stuck in the down position. Tapped on the horn
button and it raised up to the normal position…and the coach aired up.
Apparently the compressor air was heading for the horns and bleeding
off. Has anyone experienced this one?

Some thing similar only the dimmer style switch on the floor board was the
culprit.

I put a mod on my to do list of adding 2 led's in the overhead to one of the
blanks. The led's would need a resistor in line but one hot going to the valve
on one side and the other to the curb side valve located in the overhead. This
would give a visual check sum for the problem.
Safe travels, Ralph &
